Oaths Blood & Coin is J.M. Clarke’s newer progression fantasy epic, separate from both Mark of the Fool and Rune Seeker. The series began in 2025 with Oaths and its companion volume, and added Blood in 2026. Clarke has built the series in pairs — each story arc gets both a serial and a consolidated edition.
For readers who have worked through his older series and want something fresh in the same general tradition, Oaths Blood & Coin provides the same attention to power systems and worldbuilding that marks his best work.
