I am a brand and spanking fresh author. I have published one book, Dead Kings: The Dawnmaiden, and I am writing another. It is described as thus:

"Queen Evelina is the victorious hero of the war that freed her countrymen from tyrannical invaders and her own wicked father. She is revered by the people—mighty of arms, inspired with strategy and relentless in tenacity... thirsty of blood, towering with pride, and cemented in obstinance—she is feared by the people. Old enemies seek her ruin, the fall of her kingdom and a return to power. Known as the Dawnmaiden to those who love her, and as the Bloody Virgin to those that hate her; will Evelina overcome her own flaws and spite, or will she become indistinguishable from the villains she fights? Dead Kings is a character driven fantasy epic in a vast world of warring kingdoms, conquering empires and godlike necromancers."

Reviewers have described it as a cross between John Scalzi and H.P. Lovecraft, but I cannot verify or deny this, as I have read neither. People have told me my writing makes them laugh, and people have told me—less often—that it makes them cry. Actually, I'll just post that guy's review:

"This book is one of those hidden gems that makes you glad you chanced across it. Wilson creates a world which is believably realistic, stepped in history and lore without overburdening the plot, which flows nicely, although with plenty of twists and turns to keep the reader guessing. The action is engaging and character interactions are gripping, be they humorous or dramatic, and it has one of the most respectful depictions of a same-sex romantic relationship I’ve seen in western media. The prose is at once poetic and relatably mundane, as the author is unafraid to paint a beautiful picture in words just to make a silly, if not humorous, joke. The effect is as if one were channeling the stylings of John Scalzi and H. P. Lovecraft at the same time, and as odd as that pairing might sound, Wilson just makes it work. I highly recommend this to fans of fantasy of any flavor, to those looking for the works of George R. R. Martin without all the hatred for life and joy."

The book is ~166,000 words long, and is $4.99 or $17.99 for the eBook or paperback version respectively. The paperback has minor additional flourishes of artwork and formatting that weren't really possible in the kindle edition.

Please enjoy responsibly.

I also have a patreon, and I am very hungry. Extrapolate my begging. I am too effete from starvation to make the effort.
