Three Moons Occluded

more about three moons occluded

FOUR PEOPLE, FOUR COUNTRIES, ON A KNIFE EDGE OF MYSTERY, MISCALCULATION, AND MANIPULATION . . . WHILE THE THREAT OF WAR AND SOMETHING MUCH WORSE LOOMS EVER CLOSER.

Driven by a prophecy, a desert warrior-priestess leads her people on a desperate campaign. A disfigured king is confronted by unexpected messages that stir intrigue and betrayal. A young man begins a new career at Shanwood Castle but experiences disturbing visions. As rumors of war grow, beyond the horizon even greater disaster inexorably approaches--against which there is no defense, unless someone with an exceptionally rare talent can be found in time.

“Three Moons Occluded . . . a fascinating mix of Tolkien and Heinlein in a dangerous world . . . A masterful blend of engaging characters involved in conflicts and struggling with extraordinary and disturbing visions. A great read that I couldn’t put down!” Betsy Schwarzentraub, author of Tossed In Time.

“Peter Stafford creates compelling characters you grow to care about, wrapped around a story that will keep you glued to your seat until the end of the book." David Mattingly, renown SFF illustrator.

The sequel, THREE MOONS ASCENDING, is coming summer or early fall 2023. SEE BELOW FOR DETAILS!

A preliminary edition of THREE MOONS OCCULDED was printed in August 2022, but it had a pagination error--page 25 was printed on p. 31. This prevented any website-based public sale of the book. Fixing this error and a few other items and then reformatting the book to meet Amazon criteria has taken about six months. However, I still have a few preliminary editions left, and they MIGHT possibly be collectors' items one day. So order now! $15.00 for an autographed copy; free shipping for West Coast (WA, OR, CA). Shipping extra for other regions/countries.

More information coming soon in this space.

THREE MOONS ASCENDING . . .

Vengeful generals and distrusted kings hatch plots. War clouds envelope rival countries—even as planet-wide catastrophe looms ever closer. Very few among the powerful heed the signs. Amidst increasing dangers, a high priestess seeks a hidden talent, an ambitious colonel stirs trouble between allies, at great cost a betrayed king is forced to betray others, and a fugitive from justice can no longer evade destiny.

A 15-PAGE TEASER IS COMING!

The first 15 pages will be attached under a new tab within the next 2-3 weeks!
