VESTMEN'S GALE
An ancient war rages about us, unseen…until now.
My dear reader,
If you enjoy my work on Write Angles, you’ll love my new publication The Waking. In it, we just launched chapter one of VESTMEN’S GALE, my fourth novel. It is a historical fiction and contains a deep symbolism that Christian readers will recognize as chapters progress. The allegory is subtle, not overt; hidden, never obnoxious. For the curious and inquisitive, it runs from the first sentence to the last. One chapter of VESTMEN’S GALE will be published each week in The Waking, available free or paid, and all chapters are 100% free.
If you desire more than mere entertainment from your reads, VESTMEN’S GALE is for you. Enjoy!

VESTMEN’S GALE
The Last Kingdom meets The Screwtape Letters in this historical fiction/fantasy. National bestselling author David McCaleb delivers a thriller like none other, opening our eyes to a hidden realm, thinly veiled. Vestmen’s Gale is a story of sacrifice, redemption, and purpose...of a new believer’s foray upon an ancient battleground.
A World Not His Own…
Michael is drawn back in time to the age when Vikings ventured to North America. He finds himself in the body of a Norseman and a member of a raiding party tasked with rescuing their chieftain’s kidnapped daughter from a local tribe. He soon discovers a chilling link between her and his own world. In his journey back to the present, he battles warring natives, shapeshifting demons, and the scars of his past.
A People Torn Apart…
Kiona, the daughter of a powerful Mi’kmaq shaman, struggles against her deceitful mother whose actions threaten the peace between her tribe and the newly arrived Vikings. Will she choose to remain loyal to her people, or forsake her family to help Michael free their Viking prisoner?
David McCaleb
David McCaleb is the national bestselling author of the RED OPS thriller series. With Vestmen’s Gale, he packs the same blistering action and lush detail into a historical fantasy. And it’s his best work yet; a story like none told before. “It’s a modern hero’s adventure in an old world. One filled with rash Vikings, superstitious natives, and kingdoms of darkness. But the discerning reader will recognize the real tale among the threads of truth woven throughout.” Enjoy!
Author’s Personal Note:
All my written work is my own, not AI. Each of my novels is written by a human (me), extensively critiqued by other literary professionals (not me, but I perform the corrections), professionally edited by several humans (again not me, but I perform the edits), all to be read by real people (you).
My novels invite you to connect, not with a computer program, but with another human. I will not waste your time on meaningless words. Rather, I labor over each one - more often than I care to remember! Think you might’ve noticed a symbolism in my work? It’s probably intentional. Wonder why I chose one word over another? It was for purpose. My dear reader, I invite you to join me in this adventure. Most of all, enjoy!
God bless,
-David McCaleb
