About The Patchwork Storyteller

Praise for The Patchwork Storyteller

Chaos doesn’t announce itself. It moves into the spaces left by neglect: the abandoned shrine, the community that stopped gathering, the village that forgot how to tend to its magic.

When a traveling storyteller and his snarky drake companion return to Elderglen, he finds the village dying and Chaos at its roots. After hundreds of years of wandering, he’s fought this battle more times than he can count.

But this village is special to him.

A burned-out healer, a child discovering that the way her mind works is a gift, not a flaw, another who is a wild storm. Friends he’s made through his travels. Chosen family.

What he doesn’t know is that this attack is not random. Something is directing it.

Rich, warm, and quietly devastating, The Patchwork Storyteller is the first book of The Asha Chronicles—bright epic fantasy that pits connection and wonder against the rising tide of Chaos.  

Please note this book is written for adults and loved by teens.  There is tension and death in the story. 

Tazdin radiated peace from the page. I found myself taking deep breaths as he led the townspeople — relaxing along with them without even thinking about it.

The story held my attention from the prologue's brutal hook all the way through — emotionally, it resonates strongest in the themes of found family and reclaiming wonder.

Everything about this story fed my fantasy-loving soul. I love Vezzik's sarcasm and his deep love for Tazdin and Roz. The awakening of Asha and connection in the village struck a deep chord — and Kinsera… there is so much more to be written in her story.

finished the book. WOW. I loved it very much — and that epilogue… is it leading to a next saga? Please share more if there ends up being more.

If you believe we need to nurture the harmony that binds us versus the Chaos that's always ready to consume us if we let it — this is your book.
