The Exiles Ever After Book One: Bitter Sweet

For Ezra’s 18th birthday, he treated himself to fresh pecan rolls and listened to a flute concert in the village square. For his 19th birthday he was exiled.

The Exiles Ever After is an original web serial taking place in a fairy tale fusion world where artistic giants live in the sky, entire cities of tiny folk inhabit caves and hollow trees, an empress sits and waits and bides her time, and a very unfortunate giant baker named Ezra Kettle is exiled to the land. It features cursed royalty, at least one white bear, magical baking, humor, drama, romance and malevolent plants.

Originally serialized on Jukepop, Book One: Bitter Sugar is now available in ebook format! 

Ezra Kettle, a baker down on his luck, is banished to the land far below his cloud-bound homeland for a crime he did not exactly commit. (It involved a beanstalk and a human kid with sticky fingers.) He’d rather avoid all the dangers of the human world and unlock the secrets of his family’s recipes on his own. Instead, he finds himself entangled with the fates of a human handmaiden/jester/bodyguard with a lying problem, the scientifically oriented princess she serves, and an overzealous (but pretty cute) would-be Prince Charming who rides a bear.

Book One is roughly 108597 words long, a 38 chapter "season." 

Stay tuned, Book Two : In Rot and Bloom is coming soon!
