Swashbuckling Supernatural Adventure!
The Crystal Void Illustrated Edition
The year is 1810 and as Napoleon's marshals chase Wellington's expeditionary force through Spain to the lines of Torres Verdras, dashing if rather dim French Hussar, Gaston Dubois, is astonished to encounter the love of his life.
But the fragrant Odette is soon abducted by the Marquis Da Foz, a ruthless and sadistic Portuguese nobleman. Joined by a mysterious British major, the hot blooded Hussar is soon in deadly pursuit, but what strange horrors lurk within the shadows of Da Foz's ancient Moorish fortress? Can the heroic duo foil Da Foz's dark machinations, rescue Odette and prevent the opening of the dreaded Crystal Void?

Great story, interesting characters, lots of sword and musket action, and the potential for future stories in an underutilised setting

Feast of the Dead
Dashing French Lieutenant Gaston Dubois leads his first command of the 13th Death's Head hussars those "thieves on horseback" into the Spanish interior, in search of intelligence, supplies and plunder. Forced to take refuge in the Monasterio de St Cloud, Dubois encounters the unworldly Doctor Malfeas and the beautiful but fierce Mademoiselle Brockenhurst, who seem to offer temporary respite from the horrors of war.
Yet this former house of the holy holds many strange
secrets and Dubois faces fresh battles on all fronts. Most sinister of all is the malevolent mystery which lies at the heart of the Monasterio itself, an ancient and terrible enigma which threatens both the lives and souls of all who encounter it.
Alone, deep behind enemy lines and beset on all sides, will Dubois survive his first independent command and can he prevent the horrible unravelling of the mysterious feast of the dead?
Epic, swashbuckling Napoleonic adventure expertly blended with chilling Lovecraftian horror
