The Shattergrave Knights

by David Haendler

Overview

Every family has its own traditions. The Merriwether family traditions are dark magic, devil worship and insurrection. Jack and Olive Merriwether thought they were two ordinary teenagers until they learned they were descended from the murderous sorcerer Gorgyaz. Now that the truth about their ancestry is out, the government wants to take their freedom, a witchfinder wants to take their lives and the shadowy leader of the Thirteenth Division wants to take their souls. Jack and Olive never intended on following in their infamous forefather’s footsteps, but they’ll have to learn the family traditions to survive.

About the Author

I am an author and attorney, both professions in which one is called upon to craft compelling narratives, build sympathy for your protagonists and denounce your villains' shocking misdeeds. For as long as I can remember, I have had a deep love of storytelling. I have previously written for such fine publications as Palladium Books' Rifter magazine and The University of Chicago Legal Forum, but The Shattergrave Knights is my first full-length novel. I live in historic Philadelphia with my fiancee and cat.

Fantasy and science fiction are my favorite genres, since I relish the opportunities to explore new worlds or create my own. My literary heroes include (in no particular order), Philip Pullman, H.P. Lovecraft, Michael Moorcock, J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Anton Wilson, Philip K. Dick, Neal Stephenson, Stephen King, Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Grant Morrison, Cormac McCarthy, John Kennedy Toole, and Hunter S. Thompson.

In addition to the Shattergrave Knights trilogy, I am hard at work on a forthcoming sci-fi conspiracy thriller, A Flood Last Time and a Fire Tomorrow.
