Gunpowder, Magic, and Lead
Book 1
Oren Knox, a wizard from a bygone era, has seen the world transform. Magic, once abundant, is now rare, overshadowed by the rise of steam engines and firearms. Yet, Oren’s power remains undiminished—so long as he can find the elusive earth nodes that fuel his magic.
To locate these precious sources of power, wizards rely on diabolists—female magic users with the unique ability to detect earth nodes. Oren has tracked down one of the most gifted diabolists, but she’s being pursued by Dr. Henry Branson, a vengeful madman intent on eradicating wizards and diabolists to avenge his wife’s death.
With the diabolist’s life in peril, Oren, along with his trusted friend Tobias Cain, must protect her from Branson’s relentless pursuit. At the same time, Oren races against the clock to find the earth nodes he so desperately needs. His wife’s life hangs in the balance, trapped under a deadly curse that only powerful magic can break.
Guns, Grimoires, and Glory
Book 2
OUT NOW!!!
The Devil’s Tongue earth node was supposed to restore magic to the world, but when it failed, hope dwindled—until rumors of a far more powerful node deep in the south began to surface. Oren Knox, along with his loyal friend Tobias Cain and two diabolists, sets out on a dangerous quest to find this fabled source of magic.
But they're not the only ones searching.
Their journey lands them in the middle of a bitter land war between a ruthless railroad baron and stubborn homesteaders, neither willing to back down. As tensions rise, Oren discovers that the land in dispute sits directly atop the very earth node he seeks—potentially the key to reigniting the world’s magic.
Faced with a powerful adversary who has seemingly endless resources and mysterious technology that rivals magic itself, Oren must fight not only for magic but also for survival. As forces of magic and machinery collide, the battle for control of the earth node could change the future of magic—and the fate of whomever holds the land.
