The next work coming down the pipe is looking to land sometime in 2023. The Smith is a wild venture into magical realism, following the down-on-his-luck, lame-as-a-duck middle-aged man Harlan Smith as he gets mugged, loses his job, and is promptly swept up into an underworld of treasure hunters in the strange city of Antwood.
Harlan Smith discovers that he has a knack for putting things in “order,” unwittingly righting wrongs (or wronging the occasional right), building clues, and conjuring items that shouldn’t–or didn’t previously–exist. But there’s more to the hunt than simply supporting Sanders, the charismatic conman who gets him into this racket, and helping navigate them to the final treasure. There’s a young woman in deep trouble for a heinous misdeed, and while she’s no damsel (she’d be the first to tell you that!), she certainly needs help.
The Smith is on deck.
Following perhaps sometime in 2024 is a rough sequel that also takes place in the strange city of Antwood, Ed, details to be released at a later time.
