CLEAVE is a 150-page novella about a crazed barbarian on the hunt for a dragon egg that he seeks to destroy before a cult called the Sun-Slayers hatches it to birth a monster that will "sanctify the world". Accompanied by Gishna, a goblin woman and recently-freed slave, Cleave goes up against goblins, harpies, ogres and an army of zealots to achieve his goal.

IMPORTANT: The book is already done and ready to go to print. The funding is to offer early access to Kickstarter readers.
