How this series works

Not a straight line. Some books are mysteries, some are prequels, and some dive into decay and brutality. Read in order for the full truth, or pick the path that fits your taste.

New readers

Book 1 - A psychological fantasy thriller: three old friends, a paranoid wizard, and something watching in the dark.

A Psychological Journey This is where most readers begin. Three old friends meet by chance at a roadside inn. One of them is a wizard who jokes too much, knows too much, and might be hiding something far worse than paranoia. What starts as nostalgia turns into unease. Someone is watching. Someone always has been. Start with Book I (Available on Kindle Unlimited)

The Tales of the Lost North - A World of Fading Kingdoms

A quiet, Tolkien-inspired, Old-School fantasy world shaped by memory, ruin, and fragile oaths. Two full novellas (70k words in each), shorter tales, art illustrations... And more to come. This project is my passion and I will continue crafting it rest of my life. Alongside the fiction, over a hundred hand-drawn pencil sketches and maps reveal the traces of a world still in the making.

This world has not been built all at once, but returned to again and again — maps redrawn, names revised, histories deepened over the course of many years. Some parts have followed me from one stage of life to another; others have changed completely as I have changed with them. What you see here is not a finished construct, but the current layer of a work that continues to grow alongside me.

Read The Dark Story of Tymon

"The only thing that keeps me sane… is knowing how easy it would be to lose it again.”

Download the sample here.

Beyond the northern shores lies a hidden valley. Behind the Tundra, an Ancient Temple of the Gods stands—once a haven, now a graveyard for broken souls.


Outlaws. Murderers. Thieves.


And others... just unlucky.


Or maybe fate always intended for their lives to sink this deep.


One of them is Tymon. A man with nothing left, nothing to lose... But he still wakes up each day if he hasn't even slept, with something whispering to his subconscious: survive..


Haunted by the past... Hunted by fate.. Tempted by addiction...


He walks a cliff’s edge. Literally and mentally.

And when the old names return...

The old Enemies... The old Friends. And "the Friends"

— Tymon starts to remember who he truly is.


And what he’s capable of?
