The Brittle Riders Trilogy

Azoth Khem Publishing (links below)

Densely packed, SF-tinged high fantasy that mildly satirizes the genre. - Kirkus Reviews

The Brittle Riders: Book One (Second Edition) was Voted Best Sci-Fi Novel of 2022 at Critters.org

Scored a 92.7% film adaptability rating by the reviewers at Bookscribs.

A brilliant man hosted a party. It was such a good party it culminated in the death of every man, woman, and child on the planet. That story is boring and oft told. This is not that story. This is the story of what happened next.

A very unique tone and world, reminiscent of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY meets a MAGNIFICIENT SEVEN/DIRTY DOZEN - type set up, but with a look, flavor, and lexicon all its own. - Garrick Dion - film producer

Lord of the Rings meets Tank Girl - S. Shane Thomas.

If David Brin came off a three-day tequila bender and dropped acid, he would have written The Brittle Riders. After the death of every man, woman, and child on the planet things get a little weird.

This is the world if Frankenstein's monsters ruled the Earth. Apocalypses are funny that way. Book I ~ Book II ~ Book III ~ Omnibus

Goptri of the Mists Trilogy

Azoth Khem Publishing

The Sanskrit word Goptri means "military governor, ruler, or protector." It can also be translated as "secret" or "hidden." Both meanings work in this latest trilogy. The original Goptri in the series is named Manish. His rise to power begins when an enemy ambassador shoots his wife, Arti.

Spoiler alert: she lives.

He becomes a very public leader, but his office is responsible for one of the most secret species in the world, one that contains the memories of the most violent human who ever lived. Discovery of their existence could start a civil war.

All of this is merely the beginning of a galaxy-spanning tale of intrigue, betrayal, and bloody retribution.

Written in a completely different style than, but in a universe connected to, The Brittle Riders, this will give your nightmares nightmares. Introducing new characters, new stories, new foods, newish booze, and a villain guaranteed to make you both sad and terrified.

Stuff About Things

Azoth Khem Publishing

The squishy brain of Bill "McSciFi" McCormick has been responsible for many words. Some of them coherent. What you are looking at is a compendium of short stories, fun looks at history, and the greatest rejection letter ever penned. It was so great it started his career.
