World on Fire

Raven's Peak, the book that opens World on Fire, is free through Saturday. Haatim never believed in demons until a priest died in front of him.

The World on Fire timeline and map reference: the Raven Saga trilogy, its prequel, and the connected books that share its Council and continuity.

For five days in July, Raven's Peak — book one of World on Fire — is free on Kindle. Here's what waits in that town, and why I start everyone here.

The trilogy I started twice. What World on Fire is actually about underneath the plot — three questions about debt, institutions, and the price of grace.

A Council Hunter at an Idaho safehouse opens a wooden box from a half-possessed stranger — and the last hunt starts again.

A scene that survived three drafts of Raven's Rise before I cut it — the corridor Arthur, Abigail, Frieda, and Haatim walked, and the word she finally says.

Hear the prologue of Raven's Peak: an AI-narrated preview in which Frieda comes to bring the Reverend out of his cell far below the earth.

World on Fire, three novels and a prequel: a legendary Hunter pulled out of his own prison, and a war on demons being lost from the inside.

A Council-style file on Abigail: the basement, the long quiet years, what she becomes at the gate, and where the saga leaves her. Spoilers ahead.
