Meet the Author
Jonathan Wurst
Hi! I'm Jonathan. By day, I work as an engineer in north Alabama, but at night (and very early in the morning) you can find me crafting new fantasy worlds and characters that I hope to one day share with you.
Currently, I am working towards publishing my debut epic fantasy novel and first entry in the Ashes of Iskara series, The Witch and the Worldbreaker. I am excited to share this story with the world, as well as the many others in the future.
My love of storytelling began when I was young, while making home movies with my family. My first foray into writing came in the form of drafting scripts and filming for stop motion animation shorts. Now, I write adult fantasy stories that aim to present majestic and exciting tales grounded in human experience (with a few puns thrown in for good measure). There is magic in our humanity. Let's explore it together!

Can fate be reversed?
For the wandering knight Chinelo, such a thought is unimaginable. The world with all its beauty, abundance, and loss simply is as it is. The witch Isobel defies that notion. She speaks, and the world listens. She writes, and the universe obeys. She laughs, and his heart stirs.
On the night of their chance meeting, Isobel offers Chinelo a deal: fix that hole she blasted through her roof, and she’ll teach him the Ancient Arts, the magic of the gods. (Food and lodging included.)
When shadows of Chinelo’s past follow him from his fallen homeland and mysterious powers seek Isobel’s death, the two, along with Isobel’s cantankerous bullfrog Mort, must depart on a journey to defy time itself—a journey to uncover magic lost to history, to learn the truth of the departed gods, and to discover who they are both alone and together.
As the debut novel of author Jonathan Wurst, The Witch and the Worldbreaker is an epic adventure of magic and mystery, love and loss, and bonds that reach beyond time. Fans of Mistborn, The Legend of Zelda, and Fullmetal Alchemist will enjoy the intense action, charming characters, and continent spanning adventure of The Witch and the Worldbreaker.
