A Note From The Author

Into the Astral Lands kicks off my dark fantasy/cosmic horror universe. It’s by no means a prequel to the epic novel(s) that I’m writing in the same universe. I wanted to write something that dealt with dreams, and this place that I’ve been envisioning called the Astral Lands for awhile now.

And really, who doesn’t love eldritch beings anyway?
