Sinopsis

The Song of Midas is a rich and emotionally layered retelling of the ancient myth where gold is not just a symbol of greed but a weight that distorts love, memory, and desire. In this version, King Midas of Phrygia is not a monster but a man, flawed, tender, and torn between what he longs for and what he fears to lose.
 
When the power to turn anything into gold is placed in his hands, Midas believes he has been chosen for greatness. But the gift quickly becomes a curse, unraveling the delicate bonds between him and those he loves most. At the heart of it all is a quiet yearning for self acceptance, for connection, for a life not hardened by ambition.
 
Told with poetic depth and a deep understanding of the human heart, The Song of Midas is a story of transformation in every sense. It explores the cost of what we chase and the beauty of what we risk leaving behind.

    I was there the day the wall fell from the sky. The day they gunned down my mother and permanently separated the rich from the poor. I was there the day my father decided he could force utopia on a certain half of the population and leave the rest to rot. 
     
     
     
    Pragmapax was once a great city, the only remaining outpost of civilization in our part of the world. But now, divided by an impossible wall, we've become two cities. Two peoples that despise each other. Two different ways of life—one idyllic and peaceful, the other savage and lawless. Civil war seethes in the air, breathing down our necks. 
     
     
     
    The only thing I know is that if war finally breaks out, I'm trapped on the wrong side of the wall.

    How do you mark a quarter century? While parties are great—and we'll have those—I wanted to distill the time in a tangible way. To hold it in my hands, and share with you, dear listeners, in celebration and appreciation. 
     
     
     
    But how? 
     
     
     
    A collection! I dove into my published short fiction. Some I included because they were challenging to write. Several show my growth as a writer. I love them all. There's science fiction, fantasy, and, yes, horror. Plus an all-new story from Night's Edge. 
     
     
     
    If you know me only from my novels, welcome to the darker, deeper corners of my imagination.
