Red Reckoning

Yancy Lazarus #6 / 7
by James A. Hunter
Red Reckoning (Yancy Lazarus #6) by James A. Hunter
Unrated

Look who just dragged himself out of Hell…

Yancy Lazarus—mage, bluesman, and Hand of Fate—is back from Hell, and the world of the living ain't what it used to be. The Guild of the Staff is broken, his friends are being hunted down, and the pact between the supernatural nations is on the brink of collapse. Someone needs to shoot some sense into people, and if there's one thing Yancy knows about a job well done, it's that you have to do it yourself.

But the ringmaster at the center of this evil clown circus is the Morrigan, the Irish War Walker of Old, and she's cooked up a nasty new ritual that could be the end of humanity. This isn't like the last time she faced Yancy, however. Fueled by both cleansing magic and demonic fire, Yancy and his crew of supernatural misfits are packing more heat than she can handle. A reckoning of epic proportions is coming.

James A. Hunter

Before he built entire universes from pixels and prose, James A. Hunter served as a Marine, tracked pirates (yes—actual pirates), and spent time as an international aid worker in Thailand. That varied life experience, rich with grit, humor, and a touch of the unbelievable, pulses through every page of his fantasy and LitRPG adventures.

Best known for Viridian Gate Online, Rogue Dungeon, and Shadowcroft Academy, James crafts stories where magic systems are as intricate as they are unforgiving, and where characters evolve as much from hard choices as from epic battles. His writing leans heavily into the spirit of progression fantasy—fast-paced, emotionally grounded, and always centered on growth, both personal and power-based.

He’s also the driving force behind Shadow Alley Press, an indie publishing house that's helped shape LitRPG and GameLit into some of the most innovative corners of speculative fiction. With an ear for narrative rhythm and a sharp sense of what readers crave, he’s not just writing in the genre—he’s helping define it.

Whether he's designing dungeons, developing lore, or daydreaming about captaining a spaceship (don’t ask him how real that part is), James brings a clear sense of joy and craft to his work. And while his characters often face monsters, magic, and mortality, they never lose sight of what makes a story worth telling: heart, humor, and high-stakes adventure.
