After many weeks of flunking my writing quota, I rejoice to report that this week, I penned six thousand five hundred words of copy, in addition to working my day job, spending evenings with the family, and other claims on my time.
In the scene I just wrote, the quadradimensional ghostblade called Candlewit (which Sir Orlando, called the Last Templar, used to kill and then banish the Faceless Man) has been bestowed on its new bearer, with instructions never to draw it against any mortal. Letters of flame burn in the crystal depth of the blade when its true name is called our in battlecry: Curucondel.
Nor all the dark of endless night
may quench this single candle’s light
Oh, and there is spaceship battle, complete with the blood-red warmoon of the space-pirates whirled out of orbit by its hypergravitic spindizzy engine, firing upon the hard beset planet of walrus-men with interplanetary range beam weapons, and receiving fire in return from the planet-killing Carrington Event Weapon from the iron moon of the defenders. STARQUEST is a space opera, not high fantasy. Except maybe it is not.

Welcome back to a world filled with horrors beyond count. A world where madmen fly across galaxies chasing forbidden power and ancient evil seeks to infect and eradicate all life.

Message from our own Alexander Macris, an editor of mine when I worked briefly for Milo Yiannopoulos, and a comrade:
Friends,
The beautiful and talented Mrs. Wright, appearing in her mysterious alter identity as L. Jagi Lamplighter, authoress, graced my friend (and fellow founding member of the Space Princess Literary movement), the honorable Edward Willet, with an interview on his fine WORLDSHAPERS podcast, where he brings to light the mysteries of the writing craft for fantastical and science-fictional literature.
An outcast boy with a terrible secret …
A disillusioned priest seeking release from fate …
The restless son of a fading race seeking his destiny …
Thrown together by chance, their historic quest will span a continent. And change all worlds forever.
Zebrin wanders the human-dominated mainland, having fled his people’s rigid island refuge.
Alone in barbaric lands, he yearns to find himself in those his race shuns.
But when an ambitious emperor drafts him for a harrowing mission to the farthest ends of the world, will he discover and embrace his divine calling? Or will the kingdom he was ordained to save fall?
The answer lies in the Burned Book.
Jagi here.
When I started writing this series, in 2011, I decided to set it in the same year as the roleplaying game it was based on–the far-future year of 2023.
Rachel Griffin’s first day of school, when she wakes up to hear the Lion talking to the Raven, takes place in the wee hours of the morning of September 4th, 2023.
Which is today.
In honor of Rachel’s first day at Roanoke Academy for the Sorcerous Art, here is The Sixth Book of Unexpected Enlightenment: Guardians of the Twilight Lands:
An old enemy returns!
With the Heer of Dunderberg dead, Rachel Griffin is determined to save her beloved Roanoke Academy before time runs out, but to do this, a new covenant must be forged with the island’s fairies. On top of this, an old enemy has escaped and might reappear any moment
Rachel has learned not to wish on stars, but what should she do when she yearns for help? She is troubled by other questions, too: Where do the dead go? What became of her beloved late grandfather? Most annoying of all, with such a wonderful boyfriend, how can she be in love with two boys?
As her fourteenth birthday approaches, the answer to these questions awaits her, along with wonders such as she has never seen.
But there are terrible things ahead, too.
Read Guardians of the Twilight Lands today!
