MAUD — HEIRS TO A BROKEN AGE

The sun is gone. Each night, the dead rise to hunt the living, and the forgotten gods walk once more among men.

MAUD — Heirs to a Broken Age is the opening volume of a seven-book dark-fantasy saga by L. L. Junior — a story not only of gods and monsters, but of the people who refuse to surrender when the world itself has forgotten how to hope.

In the frozen silence of a sunless age, compassion becomes rebellion, and courage a prayer whispered into the dark. Every choice matters. Every life, no matter how small, carries the weight of an age undone.

💛 Launch with Purpose — Supporting Alder Hey Children’s Charity

The first 1,000 eBooks sold through the author’s official website — themaudsaga.com — will have 100% of proceeds donated to Alder Hey Children’s Charity, helping one of Europe’s biggest and busiest children’s hospitals provide life-changing care, fund state-of-the-art equipment, and create a better future for young patients and their families.
Learn more: https://www.alderheycharity.org

Please note: only eBooks purchased directly through the author’s website are part of this charity campaign.
Retail platforms such as Amazon and Waterstones do not participate, and proceeds from those sales are not included in this initiative.

🌍 Continuing the Mission — Giving Back Through Christmas

From the moment pre-orders go live until Christmas Day 2025, all proceeds from eBook sales through the author’s website will be directed to UK-based, HMRC-approved charities.

The first milestone supports Alder Hey, with the author personally covering all platform fees so that the full £5.99 from each of the first 1,000 eBooks reaches the charity in full.

After this goal is achieved, every remaining pound of profit — after Shopify, SendOwl, PayPal, and card-processing costs — will be donated to charities across the United Kingdom focused on kidney-disease care, mental-health support, and animal welfare.

This initiative is the author’s way of thanking the United Kingdom for the care and compassion shown to his parents, who both lived with chronic kidney and mental-health conditions, and for honouring the spirit of kindness that defines the MAUD community.
