synopsis

He avoided prison, but now he's breaking into one.

Varo Pinetta has had his scrapes with the law, but he's now a caster -- a legionnaire trained to wield magical 'oca' in service of the Empire. He thought he'd put his criminal past behind him. But then his Sergeant ordered him to bust into a prison to rescue an old friend.

Not just any prison. A 600 foot-tall tower of rock called a Pillar, its location unknown, a portal gate the only way in or out. Led by a thief, Pinetta and his fellow prison-breakers hatch a daring plan, the likes of which the Empire has never seen. The trouble is, one of them is a traitor and the prison governor knows they're coming.

Can they rescue the oconic prisoner? Or will they all die trying?

The Oconic Prison is a page-turning fantasy thriller that's part Ripper Street, part Stargate, with a touch of The Italian Job. It's set in the same world as the Oconic Gates series, which begins with the novel Once Called Magic. 

If you like fantasy novels that don't take themselves too seriously, The Oconic Prison blends together the spirit of the TV show Hustle, Ripper Street and The Italian Job (the original, not the 2003 remake) to create a page-turning prison break story with some surprising twists and turns.
