J.L. Oakheart is a writer with a passion for dark fantasy. His love for science fiction and fantasy began when he first read about Middle-earth, Hyboria, and Arrakis. Those places left quite an impression on him. His passion for writing about far-away worlds grew until he published his first novel.
J. L. Oakheart lives in the land of Robert E. Howard (Texas) with his lovely wife, four cats, and two dogs. One of the cats thinks that she runs the place, and the Oakhearts have not shown her any different. He is a teacher by trade, a gamer by night, and a reader whenever he can get the time.

Vile Blades: Lessons from the Road is the first installment of the Vile Blades trilogy. It introduces the world of Arthennia, an ancient land of heroes and magic, with an intricate history that has been developed over years of worldbuilding. It is a place where anyone, at the right moment in time, can unexpectedly become a hero or die a horrible death and be forgotten forever.

Coming Soon! The Downfall of Malek trilogy opens with Malek: Fire Brand. J. L. Oakheart's second book, and beginning of his second trilogy. Malek is also set in the world of Arthennia as seen in the Vile Blades trilogy.
