Kingdoms of Ahn Daowen: Storms of Espyrea's Interests
|
| General | Back cover blurb: Shadows stir in the depths, and an ancient evil rises. Long has it waited, long has it planned, and now at last all the pieces are in motion. The races of men would be wiped from the face of the world.
Woe has come to the Isle of Espyrea. The sun has been swallowed by unrelenting storms. Rivers swell over their banks and floods ruin the people's crops. A dark army begins to invade.
Hope lingers, however. Conall is a mighty swordsman, his friends are capable warriors, and they will stop at nothing to save their island home. If they journey across the Haunted Ocean and win the favor of the storm elves, perhaps they can at last cast out the evil that plagues their land.
But getting there may cost them their lives...
E P Harlow grew up and lives in southern California with his wife, daughter, and three cats.
A huge fan of science, history and magic, he enjoys using those elements to weave complex and epic tales.

About me:
"Kingdoms of Ahn Daowen: Storms of Espyrea is a fantasy novel told in the epic tradition. What stands out about this body of work is the author's in-depth world building and down-to-earth, unassuming storytelling style. Descriptions are vivid yet concise, and the narrative treats the reader with intelligence and trust. Literary and imaginative, the story advances steadily, and the author uniquely captures the uncertainty of his generation with the struggles of his heroes.
"Extensive research into Irish myth and lore lends the tale historic authenticity. The characters are accessible, their dilemmas easy to relate to, and their journeys sweeping as often as they are intensely personal. Readers feel their losses with them, cry out for joy at their triumphs.
"Those who pick up a copy will likely delight in the turns Storms of Espyrea takes and the conventional fantasy elements that get turned on their respective ears. Indeed, there are elves, monsters, dragons, and plenty of magic, but with a fresh take on all of these, there will be no sense of rehashed humdrum within these pages."

Anyone who believes fantasy isn't dead. Or failing that, anyone who thinks it's already died an inglorious death.
