"ARTHUR smiles and he tears off his top. MERLIN looks at him – he's ripped like 50 cent. MERLIN swallows hard..."
(aka. My favourite part of the original BBC Merlin pilot script.)

As promised: the first chapters of our original series
With a huge thanks to Balencian, we now proudly present his audiobook of the first chapters of The Occasional King: Prince of Ruin for fans of our Merlin script to enjoy -- soundtracks included, just like before. So we worked on the Merlin script for two years: we’ve worked on this series for upward of six. We couldn’t be more excited to hear what you think, so don’t be shy!

SYNOPSIS:
Dorian Sinclair would rather gulp down poison than become king – literally. In just three years the flamboyant half-king has inadvertently killed almost all his remaining relatives trying to fill a crown he’s too scared to wear. Exhausted by this a life of death, he resolves to end it all – until his world is rocked by the return of his best friend, Janus, whom he never thought he’d see again. But his decision to live challenges the will of the divine itself and provokes the God of Fate to bombard him with temptations of suicide.
It’s the 1700s in Ravensdale, a hedonistic kingdom of such extravagance as to rival the French. This fantastical and darkly humorous drama witnesses a troubled royal go from plotting his death to fighting for his life in a battle of gods and men. No man can escape his fate – this much history makes clear. But perhaps they just weren’t running fast enough.
Fans of Leigh Bardugo, Game of Thrones, & CW’s Reign would love this story of political intrigue and strong friendships, set in an immersive world of history and mythology. Featuring a cast of morally gray characters, the novel is distinguished by sardonic wit and gallows humor reminiscent of the film Amadeus.
1-9-21 Update
Happy New Year, Merlin fandom!
We’ve gotten questions regarding our last post where we promised an audiobook recording of the first few chapters of our original novel series. This project has taken a little longer than we expected so there’s been a slight delay. But rest assured we are still en route to delivering those promised chapters for you all to enjoy. When it’s ready (which will be soon), you’ll naturally be the first to know!
Cheers! xx

EXCITING CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR OUR LOYAL FOLLOWING: A SNEAK-PEAK INTO OUR ORIGINAL FANTASY SERIES!
Dearest Merlinians,
I believe we can all agree that this has been a tumultuous year for everyone. It’s almost surprising that King Arthur has not risen to come and rescue us from the madness! As Christmas prepares to step out from around the corner, it will mark the 8th anniversary of Merlin’s departure from the screen.
Despite the hardships of 2020, it was not without its blessings. We met @balencian, who recorded his excellent audiobooks of Merlin 6: Kingdom Come and gave us all a chance to revisit the world of Merlin. Meanwhile, @merlin6-sims continues her labor of love by animating every scene of the script with an impressive attention to detail.
And we have not been idle ourselves! In April, we released a two-volume album entitled BREAD & CIRCUSES, (Volume 1: "Come One, Come All"; Volume 2: “Here There Be Monsters”), with elements of EDM, classical/baroque music, and cinematic soundtracks, and featuring 19 Indie pop songs that unfold a story of decadence, madness, and of hope triumphing over inhumanity. (Fun Fact: The entire album is inspired by our book series.)
We then took a hiatus from music to focus on some personal aspirations, but we did not stop creating new material that we will begin to share in 2021 once we get all our ducks in a row. :)
In the meantime, we resumed work on our original writing project. At long last, we are prepared to share a sneak-peak of our writing as a Christmas present from us to all of you! We know that it’s not the Merlin Season 7 you all desire, but if you loved Kingdom Come, this new fantasy world and these new characters will grab onto your heart in a way you never would’ve expected. After all, the origin of our inspiration in writing it was indeed BBC’s Merlin.
We have spoken with @balencian, the same gentleman who recorded the Merlin 6: Kingdom Come audiobooks, and he will soon record himself reading the first few chapters of our novel series (and just like the Merlin script, his audiobooks will have soundtracks hand-picked and edited by us!). Once he’s posted them, we will share them for your pleasure. We would love to hear your thoughts & feedback! While we still hope to be traditionally published, it is a competitive business, and it is always helpful to get a feel for one’s audience beforehand.
Without further ado...
Introducing our Adult Dark Fantasy, The Occasional King: Prince of Ruin.
Synopsis: Dorian Sinclair would rather gulp down poison than become king – literally. In just three years the flamboyant half-king has inadvertently killed almost all his remaining relatives trying to fill a crown he’s too scared to wear. Exhausted by this a life of death, he resolves to end it all – until his world is rocked by the return of his best friend, Janus, whom he never thought he’d see again. But his decision to live challenges the will of the divine itself and provokes the God of Fate to bombard him with temptations of suicide.
It's the 1700s in Ravensdale, a hedonistic kingdom of such extravagance as to rival the French. This fantastical and darkly humorous drama witnesses a troubled royal go from plotting his death to fighting for his life in a battle of gods and men. No man can escape his fate – this much history makes clear. But perhaps they just weren’t running fast enough.

We are so excited to share this with you, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed writing it! Until then, happy holidays! You will be hearing from us soon xx
HEY, MERLINIANS! It’s us and we’re back with a song Christa wrote years ago while we were writing the Merlin 6: Kingdom Come script, and as promised, we share all Merlin related content right here for you guys. This is “Life and Death,” and judging by the lyrics, can you tell which characters it’s about? ;)
