Chronicles of Ghadid Trilogy, Short Story

The Siege of Ghadid: Final Wave

In celebration – and anticipation – of the third and final book in the Chronicles of Ghadid series, I’m sharing an in-world novella that takes place sometime during the events of the second book, The Impossible Contract.

That said, if you haven’t read The Impossible Contract: stop. Do not pass go. Do not progress forward. Warning warning, danger danger. Turn back. Read book two first. Then come back. You will thank me.

There are four parts to this novella and I will be sharing them in the days leading up to The Unconquered City’s release (June 16th!!).

Part one, part two, and part three went up earlier. If you’d prefer, you can read the whole thing in pdf.

Today, I present:
