Mud (Chronicles of the Third Realm War Book 1)
Torn apart by war and abandoned by the gods, only one hope remains to save humanity. But the savior isn’t human at all.

Trapped by his Maker’s dark command to protect a mysterious box, Adem—an unlikely hero—is forced to kill anyone who tries to steal it.

When a young boy chances upon Adem’s temple, he resists the lure of curiosity and temptation, intriguing the golem.

The boy and his sister convince Adem to go against his Maker’s edict, leaving the refuge of the temple. But their adventure soon lands them in a web of trouble.

Now Adem will do whatever is necessary to keep his new young charges safe, even if it means giving up the only thing he’s ever truly wanted…a chance at a soul of his own.

If you like Jeff Wheeler, Andrzej Sapkowski, Lindsay Buroker, D.K. Holmberg, or Sara C. Roethle, you’ll love this epic fantasy adventure complete with a golem!

“Wenstrom’s debut is the catalyst for a planned series of fantasy war tales, kicked off with this thoroughly expanded retelling of the Orpheus myth...the clever use of weathered fantasy tropes and occasionally lovely turns of phrase will propel readers into book two.” – Publisher’s Weekly
