The
Marshlanders Trilogy, consisting of The Marshlanders, Fly Out of the Darkness, and Infinite Games, is adventure fiction set in an invented pre-modern landscape
where a money economy seeks to destroy
self-sufficient, sustainable communities by draining their marshes for agriculture. The
heroes, Clare and William, are adopted as children
by a community of marsh dwellers and coastal
farmers after William's father, a pharmacist, is murdered by an alliance of
clergymen and apothecaries and Clare, at the age of eight, barely escapes
with her life when ministers
work up a mob to kill her during a public shaming of her mother.
All three volumes of the Marshlanders Trilogy are complete, and are titled The Marshlanders, Fly Out of the Darkness, and Infinite Games. The Marshlanders was published by iUniverse in May 2010.
