Introduction & The Days of Iron. (Patreon)

Hey everyone, this is the first proper look at my new book. I’ve had this written up for quite some time, but I formatted it and did the illustration recently. As you can see, the text is quite large and the lines of the drawing are bold. This is because the book is going to be of quite small dimensions and length, almost like a pocket book.

There’s an introduction in there on how to read Old English alliterative verse, which the entire book is written in, and an explanation for why the entire book is written in Anglish, a version of the English language stripped of Latinate, Romance, and Greek-derived words which keeps the Germanic core of the language.

The Days of Iron, which is the first part of the actual book itself that you can read, is a proem, or a prelude of sorts, that explains how the story was discovered and written down.

The Song of Sundering and Sithen Days is a book of lore where you’ll learn all about the creation of Concavia and the ages that follow. This book directly sets up the novel which is to come.

My aim is to have The Song of Sundering and Sithen Days out before the end of the year, so you won’t be waiting too long before the next instalment. Humanity Lost is always the priority, of course, so releases for The Song of Sundering and Sithen Days will be interspersed between multiple Humanity Lost posts.

Let me know what you think.
