The Saga

The Martin Chronicles is an alternate-universe saga set in Teyvat, the world of Genshin Impact. It follows Shaun Martin, an advocate at the Court of Fontaine, and it's told in her own voice.

About the saga

At its heart, The Martin Chronicles is a mystery series. The first series follows Shaun's cases across Teyvat, beginning in Fontaine, where a case is rarely just a case and the truth is rarely convenient.

It's also a story about the life Shaun has built in Fontaine with Clorinde, Wriothesley, and Navia, and what it costs to keep telling the truth when powerful people would rather she didn't.

Reading order

Read the books in this order. New books are added here as they're published.

  1. 1
    The Advocate and the Truth Series one, book one. Set in Fontaine.

    Advocate Shaun Martin knows the Court of Fontaine better than most, including how easily the truth can be made inconvenient. Fresh from defending a frightened apprentice, she's handed something far more dangerous: a letter from the late Callas, kept among the records of the Fortress of Meropide, suggesting that a man convicted of murder eleven years ago may be innocent. To reopen the case, Shaun will need Neuvillette's permission, her family's help, and a yellow ledger that no one has ever found.

  2. To be continued More books are planned. Check back here, or get an email when the next one is published.

Free to read, always

Every book is free to read online and to download as a PDF. Support on Patreon gives me the time and tools to keep making the saga, but the story itself will never be locked behind a paywall.

Made with a community

Readers shape the saga by talking about it, sharing fan art, and volunteering their skills. If you'd like to be part of that, start in the community or see the volunteer roles.
