As I continue to edit my new novel, Dawn of the Lightbearer, that will hopefully be available soon, I wanted to provide those interested with a little teaser. You can find a very rough draft of Chapter 1 here. I’m about halfway through the third read-through for content edits. I tend to read through until I stop seeing things that I can improve on. Typically that is 4-5 times, so I’m getting there. Then I start the edits for grammar and such, which will hopefully go smoothly after reading through the book 4-5 times. In any event, we’re getting close! Periodic updates can be found here. I hope you enjoy the preview and feel free to send me feedback here.
Cheers!

Scott Austin Tirrell loves dark speculative fiction, conjuring isolated worlds where ancient mysteries, the raw power of nature, and the paranormal entwine. His work is steeped in the arcane, drawing from the forgotten corners of history and the unsettling grasp of the supernatural. With a style shaped by Clive Barker, Frank Herbert, and Joe Abercrombie, he crafts narratives that pull ordinary, flawed souls into the extraordinary, where reality frays, shadows lengthen, and the unknown whispers from the void. He has self-published eight books, with Koen set to come out in 2025 under Grendel Press. Residing in Boston with his wife, he draws inspiration from the region’s haunted past and spectral folklore. Scott invites readers to step beyond the veil and into his worlds, where every tale descends into the deeper, darker truths of the human condition.
