As an author, I began my work in earnest in 2013 after leaving Las Vegas to return to California, convinced that I was quitting the music industry forever (that has since changed – you can listen to my albums here or watch my improvisations on YouTube).
Since then, I have written some 20 books in the fantasy, science fiction, horror, literary fiction, and non-fiction genres. Most of these are available on Amazon or via my Patreon. If you want more info on how some of these were written, check out my expansive blog website DVS Press.
I’ve organized them below according to what series they are a part of.
The Eternal Dream
The Eternal Dream is my mainline fantasy series, featuring tales of epic journeys, battles, monsters, and hidden realms.
The Water of Awakening
My take on classic fantasy, The Water of Awakening tells the story of Helga the Lion, a woman on a quest through a Norse-inspired landscape to the Fay Lands, a world where thought, concept, and reality are all one, in hopes of saving her ailing husband. Available on Amazon as an ebook, hardback, and paperback.
Needle Ash
Originally published as a trilogy in 2018, Needle Ash tells the military-fantasy story of Michael Harthino, warrior prince, on his quest to save his family, preserve his country, and achieve his vengeance. Available in ebook, hardback, and paperback.
King Leper (Coming soon)
King Leper tells the story of Fulbert, the leper king of Ronia, and his struggles to maintain his crown, cure his disfigurement, and find love. It is complicated by the presence of Helga and her retinue, who reveal that a dangerous artifact hidden in the kingdom could provide a solution to his problems as well as the deadly destiny of her husband, Erling.
Moonsong
Moonsong is a classic adventure series set in a possible future of The Eternal Dream that roughly approximates the age of sail. It follows Rone and Charlotte on an epic journey across sea and land, along with a motley assortment of auxiliary characters.
The City of Silver
Tyrant’s Gallow
Shadow and Smoke
Eternal Dream Legends
The Legends series are related side stories to both The Eternal Dream and Moonsong, usually set in either the far-distant past or with a mythic treatment.

A short read meant for younger audiences, Garamesh and the Farmer is a fairy tale about a contest to marry a princess – a contest that requires the slaying of an impossibly powerful dragon, Garamesh. Available in ebook (free), paperback, and audiobook (read by the author).
