Greetings, all. I've finished my Moribito story - I've still got beta readers out there so small details may change, but I'm happy with the finished product and I want to share it with you all.

I know you guys are fans of the series, so I hope you'll bear with me in taking my time to get to the action and the serious danger. Like the series, I really wanted to focus on developing the characters - hopefully, even further and in a believable way. So the focus of the story is on Chagum, Balsa and Tanda - though I really grew to like Shuga as I wrote this and he plays a major role as well, as do Torogai and Jin (among others). It's set after the second novel, "Guardian of Darkness" but really only makes passing reference to it, so if you've seen the series or read the first book you're fine.
I hope you guys will give it a chance and let me know what you think - I really poured my heart into this one and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
Thanks - Dan
