After a year of writing and deep editing (all 100% human labor, by the way), I introduce to you my darling: Storms of the Ancients. Thank you for your amazing support that has allowed me to be a full-time author for over ten years now. The blurb:

A perilous ocean voyage.
A tempest older than empires.

Ten thousand slaves toil on a demon ship sailing into uncharted waters. One such wretch, unable to use her sorcery, is Bridget Burns. Mired in cutthroat survival, she fosters two allies: a terrified boy, and a gargoyle “cursed” with empathy.

Warlocks Augum and Leera, challenged by scheming crew, sail in pursuit. Their ship barrels toward a mythic storm no ship has ever breached. A storm hiding an ancient secret.

While Bridget must use her wits to keep herself and the boy alive, Augum and Leera must rally the crew to brave the maelstrom. All hope to discover what none have ever seen . . .

What lies beyond the storm.

A high-seas fantasy adventure set in the world of the epic bestselling sagas The Arinthian Line and Fury of a Rising Dragon and Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone.

You can snag the paperback / ebook here.

Audiobook coming in 2026.

Something is coming. Something that sees everyone as prey. Officially announcing audiobook launch of Whispers of Wrath (Arcane Legacy, book 1)

I am thrilled to officially announce the release of the audiobook version of the trio’s latest epic adventure, Whispers of Wrath (Arcane Legacy, book 1), which you can find on Audible.

It’s narrated by Emily Waters who did an AMAZING job, especially with the spell and language pronunciation which is as close to my original intent as I’ve heard. Link comments.

Blurb:

Augum is one of three champion warlocks. Alongside his betrothed Leera and their sister-in-war Bridget, the trio protect their kingdom by wielding an ancient power. A power that devours their empathy.

A power that turns them into dragons.

As the trio struggle to hold onto their humanity, strange events unfold. Lightning strikes that silence nearby warlocks. Fog that nullifies arcane artifacts. Moss infestations that siphon sorcery.

Recognizing that these events could destroy their newfound ability, the trio set out to investigate. Their quest for answers will take them to the far north, the deep sea, and the bowels of an abandoned castle.

But what they uncover will plunge all the kingdoms into peril.

For something is coming.

Something that sees everyone as prey . . .

Enjoy the adventure, and please consider leaving a review on Audible when you’re done listening 🙂

Personal thoughts below:

After a year of work, I proudly present Whispers of Wrath (Arcane Legacy, book 1). I was challenged writing this book as I took on three points of view: Augum’s, Bridget’s, and Leera’s. Three twenty-year-olds with an incredible power at their finger tips—and incredible inner turmoil as a result of wielding that power.

This is the start of a new saga and a new skillset for me, one gleaned from writing from Augum’s POV, then Anna Atticus Stone’s POV, and now Bridget’s and Leera’s POV’s. I hope you have as much fun reading the book as I had writing it.

Thank you kindly for the support, and I hope you’ll consider leaving a review on Amazon when you finish, and even posting about Whispers of Wrath on social media. Thank you again :)

After a solid year of work and keeping the cards close to my chest, I’m beyond excited to finally reveal the title, cover, and blurb of a brand new series coming December 6th (pre-order link below). It’s a saga about a certain trio of twenty-year-olds freshly graduated from an arcane academy of warlocks. A saga that could be read without having read prior works of mine.

Without further ado, I present . . .


Whispers of Wrath (Arcane Legacy, book 1)

Augum Stone is one of three champion warlocks. Alongside his betrothed Leera Jones and their sister-in-war Bridget Burns, the trio protect their kingdom by wielding an ancient power. A power that devours their empathy.

A power that turns them into dragons.

As the trio battles callousness, strange events unfold. Lightning strikes that silence nearby warlocks. Fog that nullifies arcane artifacts. Moss infestations that siphon sorcery.

Recognizing that these events could destroy the power of the dragon, the trio set out to investigate. Their quest for answers will take them to the deep north, the deep sea, and the depths of an abandoned castle.

But what they uncover will plunge all the kingdoms into peril.

For something is coming.

Something that sees everyone as prey.

Coming December 6th, 2024. Pre-order now:

USA | UK | CANADA | AUSTRALIA | GERMANY | FRANCE | SPAIN | ITALY | NETHERLANDS | JAPAN | MEXICO | INDIA

The book will be available in ebook, paperback (paperback launches day of release), audiobook (launches early 2025), and on Kindle Unlimited.

Preorder now live: Flames of Stone (Chronicles of Anna Atticus Sotne, book 3)

The audiobook for Flames of Stone (Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone, book 3) is now available for preorder!

Some select reader reviews to entice the soul:

“For fans of the Arinthian Line and Fury of a Rising Dragon, the third installment of Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone delivers on questions that have spanned across multiple series.”

“… the Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone doesn’t feel like a prequel and can stand alone as someone’s first introduction to Sever Bronny’s work.”

“Wonderful continuation of the series that sets up Arcane while still leaving enough untold to allow Mrs. Stone to feel mysterious and private when introduced despite knowing so much of her life from this book. Finished reading it in three days because I couldn’t put it down”

“These books like the others are so incredibly well thought out to even the tiny details that pop up books later. I would really recommend any of the books by this author although I’d rather say read them all. Probably one of the most profound worlds I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading again and again.”

“A powerful conclusion to a series that reignites my love of learning”

“Strap in for an emotional ride”

“All i can say is that i am grateful to have read this masterpiece”

The launch is April 30th! You can snag Flames of Stone here.

Flames of Stone PREORDER now live!

Some curses cannot be broken. They must be faced.
 
As a teacher, a wife, and a mother, Anna Atticus Stone craves peace. But being a warlock champion means protecting the kingdom. It also means watching over her unruly daughter, Thia, who’s fallen for a boy.
 
A boy who happens to dabble in—of all things—necromancy.

When that boy—and a deadly figure from Anna’s past—involve Thia in an illegal warlock tournament, Anna must consider dusting off her dueling skills. But not all is as it seems, and when Anna discovers Thia has been cursed, she finds herself in an epic battle for her daughter’s soul.

A battle that drags the entire family into Hell.
 
Anna faces her worst nightmares in this spell-binding and emotional finale to the Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone, which delves into the life of one of the most beloved characters from the bestselling series The Arinthian Line.
PREORDER NOW

COMING DECEMBER 8th 2023

PERSONAL THOUGHTS FROM THE AUTHOR:
I cannot express how excited I am about Flames of Stone. The book, which clocked in around 225,000 words (about the same length as The Arcane Artist), delves into a crucial — and difficult — part of Anna’s midlife, one I was not sure I would have the courage to tackle.

But I did it. A year of solid work thus culminates in my twelfth(!) book, and the finale to this series. Although this book ends with Anna being fifty years of age, I wrote it in such a way that you can then jump right into Arcane, as everything else that happens between Anna turning fifty and Augum stepping into the picture is discussed in The Arinthian Line series.

I feel that this book—in fact the whole series about Anna—exemplifies the most impactful times of Anna’s life that led to her becoming who she is in The Arinthian Line, while still feeling fresh and new (I do not believe that you will feel like you’re reading a “prequel”).

Writing Flames of Stone was an emotional ride, one I am incredibly proud of completing. There will be some tear-jerking moments. But there will also be a lot of new revelations, namely who Augum’s grandfather was (and thus the Lord of the Legion’s father), with a big twist as to why no one except for Anna knows his identity.

And of course, you will read about loads of new spells, as well as already familiar spells that receive a lot more detail. You will delve into new world lore and pick up some hidden easter eggs that hark back to series 1 and 2. It is a robust book, and I hope a fulfilling one. It certainly was for me writing it.

Thank you for all your amazing support over the years. Much more to come, including illustrations, merchandise, and more on the trio, who I will be writing about next! You’ll hear from me again soon.

All my best to you and those you love, Sever,

P.S. ART sendout coming soon.

Anna book 2: Cover and blurb reveal + preorder

The Arcane Artist (Chronicles of Anna Atticus Stone, book 2) epic fantasy series ya fantasy young adult coming of age magic female protagonist girl hero warlock witch wizard adventure fun like

Warlock Anna Atticus Stone is on her final year at the academy. As head of student council, academic prodigy, and champion arena dueler, she seems the perfect pupil.

In reality, Anna is grieving, overwhelmed, and so lonely she talks to herself. Above all, she fears assassination if people find out her father’s dying gift to her was a scion. Only seven of these powerful artifacts exist, one in each kingdom—a precarious balance that maintains peace.

That peace shatters when a kingdom steals a second scion and invades its weaker neighbor. Anna feels compelled to act, but that would mean facing her crippling fears, a quest into the unforgiving wilds, and risking her kingdom becoming a target of war.

Driven by the memory of her father, she must find the one thing eluding her thus far . . . courage.

🎇Champion’s Wrath is now LIVE ON KINDLE!🎇

Your wait is over! The grand finale to the Fury of a Rising Dragon series, Champion’s Wrath, has finally launched on Kindle.

This book was a huge undertaking and an emotional journey for me, but I am mighty proud of the work—and the entire Fury of a Rising Dragon series as a whole. Loads of surprises coming your way.

Champion’s Wrath is a true epic, clocking in at a whopping 275,000 words—736 paperback pages, maxing out the printer (and my nerves). I gave it my very all every step of the way.

I cannot thank you enough for your amazing support over the years. You have sent me emails by the thousands from all corners of the world, throwing nothing but kindness my way, encouraging this endeavor. Because of you, I have been able to be a full-time author now for over five years (and I’ve spent nine years writing the trio in total—thus far).

And special thanks to the ART. You know who you are, and you are very much appreciated 🙂

This has been a difficult year in particular for everyone, and hopefully Augum, Bridget and Leera can give you a little pick-me-up for the holidays. So grab a blanket and get cozy, because the last adventure in the Fury of a Rising Dragon series is about to begin. I proudly reveal Champion’s Wrath, available from Amazon in the following countries:

USA | UK | GERMANY | FRANCE | SPAIN | ITALY | NETHERLANDS | JAPAN | BRAZIL | CANADA | MEXICO | AUSTRALIA | INDIA

All my best to you and those you love,

—Sever
P.S. Additionally, I put the Kindle version of Arcane and Burden’s Edge on sale for only 99 cents (sale ends Dec 8th). Please share if you have people in your circle who you think might enjoy the saga.

P.P.S. I hope you will consider leaving an honest review of Champion’s Wrath on Amazon when you’re done, as every review helps Augum, Bridget and Leera reach new readers. Thank you so much.

P.P.P.S. Bonus photos of Buddha. She pretends like she wants to be part of the fun, but what she really wants are the cookies:
