Curse Breaker Series

Start no fires. Carry no weapons. Do no harm. Follow the rules of the enchanted forest and live. Break them, and you will die.   Sarn wakes in the enchanted forest, far from home, with nothing but his magic, the clothes on his back, and the three rules he must not break if he wants to survive. Monsters and murderous trees, twisted by the same dark magic he found earlier, stand between him and home.   To save his family, Sarn must unravel a mystery before it claims any more lives,  but he's never done anything like that before. How will Sarn solve this deadly mystery and defeat its architect before he loses everyone he loves?   Curse Breaker Enchanted features two fantasy adventures, starring a loving father and his young son set in an immersive world of intrigue, dangerous monsters, missing heroes, and magic.  

In a subterranean world where light is everything, can an untrained mage and his son stop the encroaching darkness?

And those men are hunting for magic-stealing rocks to fuel a zealot's quest to destroy all magic.   But they release an ancient evil by mistake, and it's hungry for a certain mage and his son. Who will survive the dark terror lurking under the mountain?   Curse Breaker: Faceted is the action-packed story, pitting Sarn and his son against monsters in an epic struggle to survive and thrive in a world that hates magic.   Fans of Anthony Ryan, Julliet Marillier, Michael J.

Jerlo wants to finish his paperwork, not search for a man who should be dead in a prison that's nearly impossible to reach. When a disembodied voice warns him that a demon is after his indentured mage, Jerlo sets off without a second thought. He swore an unbreakable oath to God to protect Sarn, no matter the cost. Even if he hadn't, he'd still go on this quest. No one except God should have access to the power inside the Kid. But one man does, and he's locked in the oubliette for demon summoning.  In a country run by a group that wants to destroy all magic, mages and demons shouldn't exist. Neither should the rock monster that's pushing Jerlo deeper into a trap. But this demon plans to do more than exist, and it'll need more than monsters to succeed. Now, Jerlo's in a fight, not just for his life but for his soul. With just an unshakeable faith in the God who sometimes talks to him, will he lose everything in a deadly contest of wills?  Get Curse Breaker Darkens now.  Curse Breaker Darkens is an epic fantasy adventure starring a quirky guy who talks to God and the demons who chase him through the dungeons under Mount Eredren. Curse Breaker Darkens is the second book in the Curse Breaker Series, but no prior knowledge is necessary to enjoy this book. 

Be careful what you promise. Oaths can kill.  Magic might be stronger when it's broken, but the promises Sarn forged with them are even stronger. Two conflicting promises bind Sarn. He must satisfy them both even though a monster's chasing him and an evil entity keeps trying to take his soul. Serving more than one master is not only damned near impossible without magic, it's also deadly. But Sarn doesn't have a choice because his word is his bond, and he gave his word to Death's Marksman and an otherworldly entity named J.C. who just might be the son of God. Breaking his word is not an option. Sarn must keep both promises or die trying because those promises won't let him break them, not even to save the son he adores.
