The greatest skyscraper on earth.

And the greatest danger.

Fresh off a trip to Europe, Austin, a young sculptor, comes home to his apartment longing to create. But a letter slipped under his door changes everything. It’s from Stella—the unearthly girl who broke his heart three years ago, when they labored to bring a mysterious god to earth who would cleanse the planet of evil.

The letter calls Austin back to the abandoned church in the countryside where he and Stella failed. It’s time to pick up the task again. Yet Austin can’t possibly return to Stella or their old work—especially after he gets commissioned to create the crowning sculpture at the top of the Tower of Babel, a titanic skyscraper that’s going up at the edge of the city.

Then C. Arthur Gilgamesh, the director of the Tower project, reveals his dark purpose. Austin’s past and present are deeply connected—and Stella and Gilgamesh are mortal enemies. Austin can’t vacillate any longer. The battle has already begun, and his artwork—as well as the Tower—lie at the heart of it. He’ll have to play both sides to bring the god to earth at last and survive the coming apocalypse.

Why is it free?

Great question.

For my next book, I’m honored to be represented by one of the best literary agents in fantasy. She represents New York Times bestsellers, and she’s working with major publishers right now to secure a great book deal. Which means my next book is coming soon to a bookstore near you.

That’s why I’m giving this book away for free. It’s my way of inviting you to explore my work.

What’s the catch?

In lieu of paying for this, you’ll be subscribed to my email newsletter by filling out the form.

Over the next few weeks, you’ll get some onboarding emails from me. You’ll learn a little more about me, my cat, and my writing. If you stick around, you’ll get my email newsletter, which comes out every two weeks.

Down the road, you’ll get updates about new novels—like the book that’s on editors’ desks right now at major fantasy publishers.

Why isn’t this book sold online?

This book is only available to subscribers.

That’s intentional. I want to provide a gift, straight from me to you, as a way of saying Thank You for taking a chance on my writing.

To create that exclusivity, I have to keep it out of online book catalogs. That includes sites like Goodreads and Amazon. It’s literally a secret, special offer just for email subscribers.

Are you really signing every book?

You bet!

This is my way of saying Thank You.

I’ll personally sign and inscribe the book on the title page. It’ll look like the book in the picture, but with a personalized message added as well.

I really love offering this. We’re all inundated with too much digital noise. Offering a print book is one way I can fight the erosion of value in a media culture that’s increasingly saturated with AI slop.

Oh, by the way, this book is 100% AI-free. I did it all myself, including the artwork and design.

So yes, I’m signing each and every book.

It’s my way of saying, Hey, physical objects and real connections still matter.

Can I request a free book and leave a tip?

Absolutely!

After you fill out the form, you’ll see a link to my Buy Me a Coffee page. You can leave a tip there if you want.

It’s absolutely not required, though. It’s my pleasure to mail out your signed, personally inscribed copy for free.

Can I leave a review of this book?

Unfortunately, no.

The Tower of Babel isn’t available through any online retailer. It’s also not on Goodreads.

I want this offer to be exclusive and secret, only for subscribers. That means I have to sacrifice widespread availability.

In the future, I may fully publish it and make it available widely. For now, it’s a special offer, and this is the only way to get it.

How long will the book take to arrive?

My wife and I will personally mail out every signed book. We’ll try to mail yours within a week of getting your order. The book will ship USPS Media Mail. It should arrive within 2 weeks of us dropping it off at the Post Office.

If your book hasn’t arrived within six weeks, please email me:
