Forthcoming
Deathless
A retelling of the Marya Morevna and Koschei the Deathless fairy tales, set in Stalinist Russia. (2011 from Tor Books).
A Dirge For Prester John (trilogy)
The story of a place that never was: the Kingdom of Prester John, the utopia described by an anonymous, 12th century document which captured the imagination of the medieval world and drove hundreds of lost souls to seek out its secrets, inspiring explorers well into the 1800s. But what if it were all true? What if there was such a place, and a poor, broken priest stumbled past its borders, discovering, not a Christian paradise, but a country where everything is possible, immortality is easily had, and the western world is nothing but a dim and distant dream?
How do you learn how to live in paradise?
(2010 from Nightshade Books)

The crowdfunded phenomenon is completely available online, and will be published in 2011 by Feiwel and Friends.
