Publisher's summary
For over a year these events have plagued Red Pike’s Landing. And no one has been able to find the killer who takes all the fingernails of their victims and tucks them into bed.
Witnesses are unreliable … but for good reason. Perhaps magic lies at the heart of these deeds and covers the Necromancer’s tracks.
Calec of the Woods is called upon for aid. And Serileen, Calec’s witch lover, must accompany him while harboring a dark secret of her own.
The closer Calec comes to the Necromancer, the faster he must solve this mystery or he and Serileen will become the Necromancer’s next victims.
Knights, Necromancers, and Murder is perfect for fans of The Name of the Wind, Mistborn, and The Mists of Avalon who also enjoy thrillers like The Girl on the Train or The Da Vinci Code. R.M. Schultz is a #1 best-selling fantasy author and has published over a half dozen best-selling novels.
Will Calec forge his own path and discover the cause of these mysterious murders before the kingdom and everything he loves is lost? Strap yourself in, scroll up, and click the READ NOW or BUY NOW button near the top right of this page to join thousands of enthralled readers in finding out what happens when Calec is drawn into the conflict.
Note: Each Calec of the Woods Mystery Thriller is a complete story without a cliffhanger ending, but there are some secondary story questions that continue in the following books. These stories can be read and enjoyed in any order.
"... a perfect blend of mystery, thriller, and fantasy."—Dan Patterson, author
"One of the most distinctive new voices in fantasy."—Emily Saunders
"My favorite new fantasy sub genre. R.M. Schultz crafts his own style of stories. This story sculpts Schultz's genre of fantasy murder mystery books or dark thriller fantasy books and novels. For teens too. Also dark fantasy suspense or paranormal mystery books and adventure romance or love for kindle unlimited readers."—J.L. Lux, Fantasy Author

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,574
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.
