This week, Chris makes his author debut! Join us as Chris steps into the role of a character, M.K. Thorne, in the Laureldale Universe and compiles a journal of notes on the supernatural from Thorne’s point of view. Whether it’s a description of a new weapon he ran into in a fight, a bit of aitherion history he searched ancient texts to uncover, or an incident report explaining why he needs to avoid Manhattan for a while, each entry gives a deeper look into Laureldale while you fall in love with our ass-kicking, tattooed, hunting-for-a-redemption-arc hero.
