City and the Beast is a story about a thief trying to find the key to getting his life back on track, about a homeless man who wants to stop stealing lives, and about a wayward biker delivering packages for a shady priest. In the streets and docks of New Coalport the business is booming, shadowy figures are lurking, and you get to experience their double-dealings from at least three different perspectives. Who is the beast and who is the man in this city, and do falling stars really bring luck? Do people need ears to hear, and how can a lawyer cause a basement crack? Read and find out!
City and the Beast features a lot of mythology, LGBTQ+ characters, fallen stars, eldritch abominations and their timeless guardians, grumpy priests, fancy lawyers, motorbikers, criminals… why pick and choose when you can have it all! :D If you like humour and romance, interwoven with dark themes, epic scale events and black comedy of misunderstandings, this is a book for you <3!

Yep, that's my art up there XD
I'm a friendly creature, with penchant for story-writing and drawing. I love books and cartoons, monsters, mythical beasts and necromancers :P
Whenever I say "we", I mean me and Zlukaka (we're like a two-headed beast, really XD).

All story and game projects are co-authored with my lovely girlfriend Zlukaka. The first novel will be available in some year or two together with illustrations, playlists etc ;D
Currently we're working on three major original projects:
1) City and the Beast, a novel about reincarnating entities, beginning in the 80s
2) Starshards, a fantasy novel
3) Eyes of the Swarm, a visual novel / video game
For now we're only revealing things for the 3rd project, and hoarding the others. If you find some time to check out Eyes of the Swarm, and tell us what you think about the setting and characters, we'll be delighted!
