Scott Austin Tirrell

Meet the author

Scott Austin Tirrell writes dark speculative fiction blending ancient mysteries, nature, and the paranormal. Influenced by Clive Barker, Frank Herbert, and Joe Abercrombie, he crafts stories where flawed characters confront the unknown. Author of seven books, his next novel, Koen, will be released in 2025 with Grendel Press. Based in Boston, he draws inspiration from the region’s haunted history.

What my readers say

I really enjoyed the dialog between characters. You really got to know the characters and wanted to follow them throughout the book. Although I am not a fantasy reader usually, I did enjoy the added descriptive parts that lets your imaginations run a little wild.

Noonday in the North, Eric's saga continues. This is the third book in the series. " Absolution of The Morning Star" by Scott Austin Tirrell. I couldn't wait for this book to come out, to find out what awaited the main character Eric and his friends and foes. This book is more complex than the other two. It has many twists and turns in Eric's journey.
Scott has a way of painting a picture with his words he uses. He puts you right in the center of the action. He leaves you wanting to know how Eric and his friends and foes complete their journey.

An epic tale! This book is populated by a cast of characters who are entertaining and flawed. From the sewers of Grafton Notch to the final shipwreck at the end, this story is unpredictable. Focusing more on stories within the world of Lucardia, rather than the usual sword action (though there is some of that too!), this is a different take on the fantasy epic. Well worth a read for all fantasy lovers. I’m looking forward to reading the next in the series!

I love this story that contains tales within tales. There aren’t any big info dumps, just motives revealed through conversations and actions.

Embark on an epic dark fantasy journey within my world of Lucardia!
