E. Thomas Ewing is an award-winning designer, filmmaker, and lifelong storyteller whose creative work spans graphic design, animation, narrative media, and children's entertainment.

A lover of myth, mystery, and melancholy, Ewing's fiction blends poetic imagery with emotional depth, exploring themes of grief, wonder, and the shadowed corners of the human heart. The Edge of the Mythwood is his debut fantasy novel, a dark faery tale born from years of imagination, gameworld lore, and hard-earned creative intuition. He lives and works in Texas.
The village is ash and bone, the girl they burned long gone.
In the wreckage of grief and forbidden magic, something ancient stirs, something that does not care about borders, councils, or clean explanations. At the edge of a spreading corruption, a mage haunted by mercy and a ranger scarred by war are drawn into a pattern not their own.
The world wants expediency: kill what frightens it, silence what complicates the story, and call it peace.
Walker Denn wants something else.
Because sometimes the difference between a monster and a tragedy is who gets to write the ending.
Behind it all moves a shadow draped in yellow: a smile, a whisper, a trick that changes everything.
This is not a tale of chosen heroes. It is a story of survivors. A grim faery tale of mercy, horror, and hard-won light.
Magic doesn't fix what's broken. It just changes what broken means.
For readers of literary hopepunk fantasy — where darkness is real, but so is the fight against it.
