rock operatic science fantasy (and more) by Matthew Graybosch

welcome

This is my personal website and blog. It is increasingly an online commonplace book or digital garden as I try to migrate away from blogging, though I prefer the former metaphor.

You are welcome to bookmark this website or subscribe to one of my feeds. If you have any questions or comments, or just want to say hi, by all means email me.

In addition to maintaining a grimoire and blog, I also use this website as a self-publishing platform for my fiction. The vast majority of my fiction is part of a science fantasy saga that serves as this website’s namesake: Starbreaker.

The dark lord wears white.
He already rules the world.
Now he means to save it.
He just might succeed, too...

...with a little help from his enemies.

If you want to know more, all of my novels and shorter works are available on this website.

Disclaimers

You might want to read this before continuing, but I won’t force you.

caveat lector: let the reader beware!
