The Demon of Elderstay

Magical makeovers are a messy business.

But how was junior arcane lecturer Gerome to know his attempt to improve a part of his anatomy would open a portal to the Shade Planes? Or, worse, unleash the all-powerful "Harbinger of the New Dark" - fondly or not nicknamed Al?

Utterly broke and burdened with demon (literally), Gerome begrudgingly joins a shady nobleman's quest to free the stronghold of Elderstay from a powerful curse. His dysfunctional crew - the insufferable siblings Bijan and Najib, the perpetually moody Polly, and the enigmatic green-skinned Sha-sha - have more problems than they can wave a wand at. Walking corpses and ritual blood circles aside, Gerome is running out of time. At any moment, Al might break free and end the world. As for the horrors that await them in Elderstay?

Let's just say the "New Dark" is the least of their worries...

In this humorous dark fantasy novel, The Demon of Elderstay spins a witty, emotionally deep, thoroughly unorthodox hero's journey with action, DnD vibes, and a thrilling story that will stay with you for years to come.
