Guest Post by Fantasy Author Andrew Cratsley
Many insist traditional
publishing is the only way to go, but years of experiences have taught me
otherwise. Keepers of Runes and the Tower of Shadows is appealing to a wide
spectrum of fantasy fans, yet so many publishing houses refuse to read the work
of new authors. Readers are unfortunately denied many great books as a result,
but I am grateful to sites such as goodreads, where readers are put in touch
with these excellent titles and their authors. Self publishing is continuously
growing easier and more efficient to accomplish, and we are finally making our
mark in the world. I'm proud to release the dawn of my original series as well
as tell a little about it.
Keepers of Runes tells the tale
of 4 characters, whose eagerness to assist a troubled world attract far more
trouble than they bargained for. They learn tragedy can be caused by the best
of intentions, and that the world of Terranesit is far darker than it seems.
Consumed with their personal demons, the young heroes must discover themselves
in the midst of an ensuing holy war, onslaughts from mysterious and magical
creatures, assassins, and much more. I'm ecstatic this first title has earned
high praise from reviewers such as Kirkus, Foreword, Pacific Book Review, and
several others. Fans of fantasy are encouraged to watch out for future
volumes...and my work is far from over.
