The Last Shield is a fun book. It’s effectively “Die Hard in a druidic castle,” so if you’re a fan of that formula, you’re gonna find a lot to enjoy here.

I wrote the first words of Project Herodotus on Nov 24, and have since gotten to 115k words, with many many more to go.
Writing something this huge is both incredible and frightening. I don't know what to expect when I release it. But I know I'm excited for it just the same.
