Not too terribly long ago, I realized that asking my first-time readers to bite into a massive, 300k word, 800-page + epic would be a challenge. I mean…the softcover edition is three inches thick and weighs two lbs. Some people like that kind of thing. But for everyone else, I’ve got a surprise: Down the Dark Path Darkest of All […]
