My Fiction

The Wolf at the End of the World

Set in modern day Northern Canada, THE WOLF AT THE END OF THE WORLD is Doug's first novel, an urban fantasy incorporating First Nations mythology.

With an introduction by World Fantasy Award winner, Charles de Lint, the book will appeal to fans of de Lint and Neil Gaiman. In it, a shapeshifter hero battles ancient spirits, a covert government agency, and his own dark past in a race to solve a series of murders that could mean the end of the world.

A synopsis and an excerpt of the first four chapters can be found here, along with a special discount on pre-orders. Estimated release date: August 2013.
