Out now Waxing Lyrical

Have you ever travelled to another continent in order to seek a lyrics master, only to get stuck there babysitting a twelve-year-old wizard with no control over their powers? It’s annoying, isn’t it? Especially when you’re confronted by giant sea monsters, ill-tempered horse people, war-forging Little Kings, lonely necromancers, a pernickty dragon, and many more such irritating obstacles.

Well, Sawwse Bohge went through just such an ordeal and you can benefit from her misfortune! Read all about it in Waxing Lyrical, the hilarious second novel from Adam Jacob Burgess.

Book Cave

The Book Cave is where all my stories come from. It’s a powerful site of magic. A space that brims with creative energy, rippling across its rock walls and trickling through its crevices. Well, it’s my loft. I use a green screen for the rippling and trickling. Come in and I’ll tell you more about the books in the Actum Tempus Saga, show you shoddily-drawn maps, and even read stories out to you.
