I actually do have a map I've been working on for War Priest. It isn't very fleshed out, but maybe I'll get it done in time for the second book release.
If you haven't reviewed War Priest, please do so! It really helps me continue this series. I'm just getting back into it now, and I'll post some previews for Patrons ...
Tokens and Towers Vol 1 chpt 8
Chapter Eight: Almost Bludgeoned in a Dungeon
Everything was dark by the time I awoke, my body aching, my head throbbing, my mouth dry. Yuck.
“Rer-ree…” I said, only then realizing that the gnomes had gagged and blindfolded me, not to mention the cold hard steel cuffing my han...

Chapter Seven: Revenge of the Gnomes
When you boil it down, everything in life, and apparently in Genera, is some sort of bait-and-switch. Case in point: while hungry, I was stoked as hell to be able to do something with the whopping two skill points I’d received from completing Drozard’s half-bak...

Chapter Six: Loot or Die, There is No Try (Clovis Gets a Mustache)
The village ahead seemed promising, and it would give us a chance to get a lay of the land before we continued toward the tower, our shared destiny.
Retail therapy was on the agenda now that I had enough Coin to buy Mercer Island...

Chapter Four: Just My Luck
The urge to take a victory lap had never been higher. Screw my life back in Portland, Oregon; to hell with my middling fantasy back catalog wasting away in the digital wasteland or yellowing on the shelves of a used bookstore; and to all the readers who had let me...

I don't yet know how many books Pilgrim will run. Right now, I'd like it to go a long time. It just feels right. Once I do finally get to the end, I'll likely commission a cover like this image above, Danzen crouched, finally wearing white robes, stones floating around him.
You saw it here first - by this time ne...

Off to DragonCon - I'll post some updates!
The music of Pilgrim
I almost exclusively write Pilgrim to this looped song from Aphex Twins. If you vibe on Pilgrim, part of the reason (for me anyway, the creator) comes from how this song makes me feel. It just screams Danzen to me, and even after hearing it 1000s of times (seriously), I still can't get enough. Enjoy, and extra challenge - put...

I have really been pulling out some tough words for this one, but I can't resist using the area around this mountain for a later scene. And that translation--there's so much in Utah!

Have you finished War Priest? If so, please drop your review. The book is climbing and these first few days are so crucial as I try to convince the algorithm that I'm a good boy and it should show others my good good book.

Before there was all of these characters, there was Meosa.

The idea of a Hidden Warrior sickness, which is mentioned in the second part of the first book is something I discovered in a single passage from a translation of True Path of the Ninja.
