A King's Dark Tidings Prequel

Wesson is still years from becoming a man when an immense darkness stirs within his core. The sinister power bursts free during a confrontation with an old enemy, and Wesson’s tranquil life is left in tatters. Forced to flee a murderous mob, Wesson stumbles onto a tumultuous path where he must confront the destructive power he has awakened. He must learn control over the power he wields or risk being consumed by it. As he wrestles with his training, an assassin stalks his every move. This new enemy is sent by a mysterious foe, one who will force Wesson to choose between the kindness in his heart and the seductive power in his soul.

This book can be read as a standalone novel or a prequel or between King's Dark Tidings book 4 and 5.

A deep interest in science, ancient history, cultural anthropology, art, music, languages, and spirituality is evidenced by the diversity and richness of the places and cultures depicted in Kel’s writing.

Tales of Terralor

Tales of Terralor returns to a familiar fantasy world from a quieter, more personal angle, focusing on the kind of power that isolates as much as it empowers. The story follows lives shaped by dangerous magic, where talent is not celebrated and survival often depends on secrecy, restraint, and difficult moral choices. Terralor itself feels wary and grounded, a place where magic carries social weight and consequences are rarely confined to the moment they are made.

At the center is a character-driven journey that favors tension and inner conflict over grand prophecy. Magic is volatile and destructive, forcing those who wield it to confront fear, responsibility, and the cost of losing control. The pacing is deliberate, allowing emotional growth and world-building to unfold naturally, with an atmosphere that leans dark, reflective, and quietly suspenseful. Rather than promising easy victories, the series explores how strength can become a burden and how identity is shaped under constant threat.

Written in a restrained, immersive style associated with Kel Kade, Tales of Terralor will resonate with readers drawn to epic fantasy that values mood, moral complexity, and slow-burning character arcs. It offers a deeper look into a world already known to many fantasy readers, while remaining accessible to those who prefer intimate stories where magic feels dangerous and every choice matters.


Tales of Terralor consists of one book and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
