about me

I'm a first time author who has had an eclectic career history. I have done everything from dig ditches to serve on a nuke launch crew. Always wanted to write a book but had to wait for the right characters to find a way to notify me that they wanted out. If you would like, you can contact me at gadflie@gmail.com.

The Sword. What Sword?

Richard D. Harrison

A magic sword and a six foot tall Leprechaun. What else can you ask for?


This kind of thing isn’t supposed to happen to Leprechauns. Leps are supposed to go through life working on their treasures and keeping humans in the dark. Investing in long-term securities and doing hostile takeovers is more their forte. But when Sean inadvertently allows a human to find one of the four legendary Lep treasures, it falls on him to get it back. The problem is that this treasure is a magical sword that can defeat any enemy and the man who holds it considers all Leprechauns his enemy. But, with help from some friendly vampires and a little bit of that legendary Leprechaun luck, Sean should be able to get the sword back.
The only thing he hasn’t figured out yet is what to do with it once he has it.

I have heard that a lot so I chopped about 5 pages out of the first two chapters and combined them. Things get moving quite a bit more quickly now. Thanks for the advice. view book

Martin, I just finished your first chapter and am enjoying it very much indeed. I have a few very minor things you might consider though. First is a simple one. Thars spoke of a god "almost a half-century old" but Kai then said 500 years. Wouldn't this be a half millennium instead of a half-cent... view book

I just really got started and am already enthralled. I'm going to add this to my watch list right away and also pass it on to my 15 year old budding guitar god son (who will love it even if he won't admit it to his friends). view book

Ok, I've just started and it's already painful. Since I already know that the book isn't finished, I am having trouble deciding whether to just stop now for a bit to let you finish or to get even more entranced by it and then have to wait. Decisions, decisions. But I have definitely decided to ... view book
