Tandemia
Welcome to the Tandemia Universe — a sweeping fantasy world built across multiple ages, where wars echo across centuries, and no victory stays buried forever.
Here, dragon expeditions become invasions. Holy orders become fractured powers. Ancient prisons break. Empires fall. Magic changes. And the choices of one generation become the curses, myths, and battlefields of the next.
Currently spanning the Of Wings and Faith Cycle and the later Paladin Saga, Tandemia blends epic war, elemental magic, spiritual conflict, political intrigue, and long-form character arcs into one connected world story. Whether on storm-torn seas, in paladin citadels, among rival kingdoms, or at the edge of divine and infernal realms, Tandemia is a universe where history is alive, power is never free, and the fate of the world is always contested.
Standalone Entry Point: The Tidebreaker, estimated publication date: August 2026
For centuries, the Tidebreaker has endured, but some threats do not come by ship.
Perched on a harsh island of stone and sea, the city has survived storms, enemies, and the slow erosion of time. Its people trust in its walls, its harbor, and the legacy of those who built it to stand when all else falls.
But when a coup tears through the heart of the city, that faith is shaken.
As multiple paladin orders and merchant houses are drawn into the struggle for control of the Tidebreaker, old certainties begin to crumble. Beneath the island, long-buried passages and forgotten defenses are stirring, and the secrets hidden below the city may prove far more dangerous than the conflict above.
Now, with the Tidebreaker divided and danger rising from below, the fate of the island may rest not only on who rules the city, but on who uncovers its buried truths first.
The Tidebreaker is an epic fantasy of coups, conspiracy, and looming catastrophe in a city that has stood too long to imagine falling.
Of Wings and Faith Cycle
Book One: Of Sailors and Dragons: January 2027
The Paladin Saga
Book One: Dance of the Flamelords: Fall 2026
I have been working on this world for nearly 30 years, finishing the first novel in the world right after high school. While I locked that one up, the setting has brewed in my mind for decades. Words have materialized over that time, beginnings to different entry points to the world, short stories, refined series bibles, but in 2021 I began to serialize the Paladin Saga on Kindle Vella, and this got everything moving again. When KV ended, I took my stories and decided to refine them into long form. I am happy to say that Dance of the Flamelords is currently (April 2026) 75% complete. Along the way Of Wings and Faith was born, and I ended up writing to series in the same world at the same time. Of Sailors and Dragons is about 50% complete, and I anticipate finishing it this summer.
