Mortalkind: On Death’s Door
The gods are all-knowing. The gods are perfect. The gods are in trouble.
At least one god is. ‘Former god,’ if you’re the sort to get hung up on the little details. Farrin, once God of Air, circus strongman, and flying-machine-filcher, is very good at making enemies. Volk, the King of the Gods, for one. Marxene, for another, baroness of a criminal empire.
And now Death. Just Death. Clutched in his bony fist is a list of the soon-to-be-departed, with Farrin’s name at the very top. Farrin would very much like to postpone that appointment.
With the help of Mara Marigold and Gristle the goblin, Farrin races the span of worlds to outpace the Grim Reaper. The gorebears, magical contracts, bloodthirsty criminals, and pantheons of peeved-off gods are not helping matters. Can Farrin possibly escape his predestined end?
Death doubts it. Farrin would rather agree to disagree.
The gods are all-knowing. The gods are immortal. The gods are perfect.
Are there any gods still listening? No? Good. Now we can get to the real story.
With the help of two uppity mortals, Farrin prepares to pull off the boldest criminal venture this side of the afterlife—robbing the very gods who cast him out. The payday of a thousand lifetimes is waiting for him. But should he fail, Farrin knows better than anyone what ‘the wrath of the gods’ truly means.
About the Author
Alexander Harrington
Alexander Harrington graduated from the University of Utah to work as a journalist, in the hopes of one day meeting the legendary J. Jonah Jameson. Eventually Alexander discovered that J.J.J. was not only legendary, but, unfortunately, fictional as well. But it worked out okay – Alexander always wondered why he was reporting on existing stories when he could be making up his own, anyway.
Alexander lives with his wonderful mother and okay father (kidding, Dad, you’re wonderful, too.) in Salt Lake City, writing the live long day away. When he isn’t skulking around corners, rattling Monopoly boards at anyone foolish enough to come near, he spends his free time playing mahjong, Mario Kart, and Dungeons and Dragons. A fantasy lover by heart, Alexander’s brain is cluttered with a million stories that he can’t wait to get down on paper, so he can one day enjoy a little peace and quiet up there.

The gods are all-knowing. The gods are immortal. The gods are perfect.
Are there any gods still listening? No? Good. Now we can get to the real story.
Farrin, former God of Air, is banished from the heavenly realm of Voltarim and forced to live amongst the lowly mortals. Instead of glittering golden temples, he’s sleeping in barns, while performing nightly as a strongman in a dingy, two-bit circus. Five years later and Farrin’s still none too happy with the arrangement.
What can he do? Buckle down, work hard, and earn an honest living?
That’s for mortals. He has a much better idea: break back into Voltarim and rob the gods of all their unworldly possessions. A heist of heaven, itself.
With the help of two uppity mortals, Farrin prepares to pull off the boldest criminal venture this side of the afterlife—robbing the very gods who cast him out. The payday of a thousand lifetimes is waiting for him. But should he fail, Farrin knows better than anyone what ‘the wrath of the gods’ truly means.
Spiral Loop
Immortality – a shield against death, itself.
For orphaned thief Vix, living each brutal day in fear that it might be her last, there could be no greater gift in all the world. But of course there is no such thing. Nobody is immortal.
Then Vix meets Caine, a man whom she sees murdered before her eyes – on two different days. He cannot seem to stay dead. Desperate to understand his secrets, Vix allies herself with the downcast immortal.
Forces beyond Vix’s understanding churn to life. The Riverman, a terrifying, immortal assassin, stalks her footsteps, stopping at nothing to permanently end Caine’s unnatural life. Vix finds herself in the assassin’s sights as well, but she cannot back down. For a chance at immortality, she would risk everything.
But as the darkness closes in around her, Vix begins to wonder: Is what she seeks a blessing? Or a curse?
Crown Seeker
For centuries, the people of Calamere have been without their ruler: the One Sovereign, prophesized to bring everlasting peace and happiness to all in the realm. An order of warriors known as the Crownseekers was established to seek out the One Sovereign and destroy any Tyrants who would lay false claim to the title.
After years of struggle, farm boy Oliver Trimble joins the Crownseekers. Standing now high above his former station, he finds himself the envy of every starry-eyed dreamer in the land. But from the midst of childhood dreams he awakens into his worst nightmare.
On the field of battle, he rescues a girl called Vamira Gala. Every prophecy seems to agree that she is to be the One Sovereign. But the Crownseekers disagree. They name her a Tyrant and command Oliver to see her dead.
Dealing with demons and betrayers, straying further from misty legend and into harsh reality, Oliver must choose between two halves of himself. Duty and honor? Or friendship and faith? The weight of all Calamere rests heavy on his shoulders.

Birdcage
“How much will you sacrifice to protect the ones you love? What will you give up? Your body… your heart… your soul?”
A year ago, Vix met Caine, the man who could be killed, but could never die. Revived endlessly by mysterious magic, the hopeless immortal has no more chances left. Vix fought with all her might to keep him safe.
She thought she had succeeded. But she was wrong.
An ancient sect calling itself the Al’Vidar threatens Caine, using him as a bargaining chip to force Vix’s obedience. Against their dark power, there is nothing she can do.
Except to fight fire with fire.
Plunging into a world of forbidden magic and dark rituals, Vix seeks to wield the Al’Vidar’s unstoppable power against them. But as she dips more and more into the intoxicating power, can she step back from the edge before she loses herself?

“A misbehaving god and a clever Muckling team up with a scheming goblin to battle ne’er wells and forces of evil in a world where nothing is as it seems. A rip-your-stockings-off, adventurous ride—loads of fun.”Angie FenimoreNew York Times Bestselling Author of “Beyond the Darkness.”
“An artfully assembled story featuring a dejected god, a witty goblin, and an ambitious ‘Muckmaid’ who form an unlikely alliance in a quest to break into heaven. Mortalkind is sure to appeal to epic fantasy readers who seek adventure and mythology, mischief and banter, and a riotous good time.”
Ryder Hunte ClancyAward-Winning Author of Bestseller “Mystic Invisible.”
“The characterization and world building alone are incredible — even side characters… were beautifully created. Throw in a few snarky MCs caught between a rock and a Baroness, and it’s golden. If you like fantasy, heists, broken characters, and sarcasm galore, I highly recommend this book. And if you don’t, I still recommend it.”
TaylorReader
“One of the best fantasy novels I have ever read.”
EmilyReader
“A rip-roaring adventure from page one! This story feels like Ocean’s Eleven meets Dungeons and Dragons. If you’ve been looking for a fantasy adventure that is pure fun with great characters (who aren’t teenagers in school), enjoyable action, and unique set pieces, this is it.”
