Merit Award winning cover and interior design by Nathan Fisher of Ideas Ablaze in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The Blood: The Stone’s Blade, Book One placed third in Science Fiction and third in Fantasy categories in the 2014 CIPA EVVY Awards. It has since garnered a four star review from Foreward Clarion Review in May 2016 where the reviewer stated in part: “. . . Themes prevalent in The Blood are skillfully rendered, and its heavy topics prompt much reflection. The consequences of power when it is used for personal gain, the effects of culture shock, and the undeniable power of love in all forms inform various parts of the novel, though sections that focus on such topics are subtle rather than preachy. . . Riggs has created a world both familiar and strange, and is in good company with the best science fiction and fantasy.”
