Rowan's Books

Paragon

Paragon is a dark fantasy thriller chronicling villain protagonists, parasitic romances, bloody battles, fire magic, and dangerous secrets. What does it mean to be just one person in a broken world filled with so many other souls?

TWatEotW

A post-apocalyptic ghost story. The world ended before Sun was born, but her world ended just under a year ago, when her sister, Moon, disappeared. The truth she seeks waits for her within the Woods.

Night Plague

Humankind will soon be extinct. As the last days tick by, the reclusive Mason Mild finds himself torn between a peaceful end and a brutal immortality. Have the fang marks above his heel dealt him an early demise or a second birth?

Rowan is currently writing multiple upcoming books, including a grimdark fantasy series with a queer trans male protagonist, a sequel to Night Plague, and an experimental slipstream novel about a boy lost in a strange castle.

Rowan's Short Stories

You can find Rowan's short stories in several anthologies and magazine issues published by Scare Street, The Writer's Workout, 101 Words, Short Fiction Break, and of course, All Worlds Wayfarer.
