THE TWELVE PALADINS NEWS

The Tides of Kadavar 2nd Ed.

Based on the feedback from my readers, I am going to be installing more lore and other such items to the Tides of Kadavar before moving on to Phase 2 of the Twelve Paladins. The 1st Edition will be going away when this one is completed.

The Colts of Midnight
Black Edition – Oct 2025

What is the Black Edition?
Some of you may know already that I use a certain level of AI and my skill with image editing to turn my drawings into full-fledge pictures in which I use for the covers, etc. But if you are someone with qualms about AI assisted art, then the Black Edition is the version you want. Nothing but human hands in this one.

Get your copy at Amazon, and the ebook version is available on your Kindle App as well.

PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS

The Colts of Midnight 1st Ed.

Received a 5 Star Review

American writer C.E. Wooldridge Jr.’s The Colts of Midnight drops the reader right into Golterran, a continent where magic and steel clash in ways that explore old tropes in new light. This standalone entry in the Twelve Paladins series walks that tricky line between D&D-style adventure and genuine character work—and honestly? It pulls it off.

The Tides of Kadavar 1st Ed.

Received a 4+ Star Rating with IndieReader!!!

Posted by IndieReader
In the epic fantasy THE TIDES OF KADAVAR, the author weaves a tale of intricate lore and vivid imagery that draws readers into a land of swords, sorcery, and deep emotional stakes, where morally complex dilemmas are part of the journey. Fans of tabletop RPG-inspired adventures will find much to admire in this debut.

About the Author

Carl E. Wooldridge Jr. fell in love with the fantasy genre from an early age.  He spent a good majority of his childhood being exposed to things like the Thundercats and He-Man.  Going into his teenage years, he discovered games like Magic: The Gathering, Final Fantasy, Dungeons & Dragons, Secret of Mana, and Vampire, which emboldened the direction of his hobbyist life.  He’s read many books from his favored authors: R.A. Salvatore, Raymond E. Feist, and Drew Karpyshyn.  He was born and raised in San Diego, California, and from there he joined the military where he spent two decades as ordnance technician.  Going into retirement, he now lives in Colorado Springs, CO with his wife Michelle, and for the rest of years in the mountains, he wants to write classic heroic fantasy books.
