Circle & Strikes

When utter destruction looms over the city of Teichostro like a shadowy veil, a team of enforcers is the final safeguard against total annihilation. Assassins and plagues are the enemy's tools, bleeding the city and ripening it for toppling. Racing against the clock, the wayward swordsman Valéry and reclusive alchemist Sebastian, seek a cure. Meanwhile, the crotchety wizard Silas and firey demihuman Joyln sniff out its source.

External enemies aren't the only peril for Teichostro's heroes. Valéry clashes with the burden of a heritage he doesn't want. Sebastian finds himself failing to stand up to his fears. Silas' jaded attitude threatens to hamper his efforts. And, Joyln labors under the yoke of an unrequited affection. Conspiracy unravels, betrayal is found, and blood is shed. Either they grip an enemy they can't put their fingers around, or Teichostro falls to devastation.

Circle & Strikes is written within an original fantastical setting and includes inserts from a series of artists.
