THE AENYA SAGA
All across Aenya, the sun set the sky aflame, and the Zo looked on. Oceans boiled to steam, trees turned to ash, and the Zo in their proud cities peered through their far-seeing eyes to prod the mystery of their dying star. Scrambling to save their civilization from ruin, elders endlessly debated what should be done as the air blackened around them and all but the most ardent of species perished. Priests turned inwards to gods of old in search of deliverance. Men of science forged vast machines deep within Aenya’s heart to distance their planet from the ravenous sun. Yet in the waning days before the end, the Zo chose escape, wandering the island stars in bodies of steel, while a few brave researchers ventured blindly through uncharted doorways into other realities.
Aenya slept, adrift across the Cosmic ocean, its surface cold and brittle, its remaining vestiges of life quietly hibernating. Millenniums came and went and came again, and after untold ages, the dormant world rested about the shores of the Greater Moon. History began anew. Waking from the hearts of mountains, humanity reemerged to reclaim civilization, to write new songs, build new empires, and rekindle old hatreds. While hidden among the ruins of a forgotten past, the secrets of the Zo lay waiting.
The Aenya Saga is a thirty-year labor of love. It is a seamless blend of action, adventure, and epic mythmaking at its finest, beginning with The Feral Girl, continuing into Ages of Aenya, and culminating with The Princess of Aenya. Each book can be read separately or as part of a greater whole.
From the time I was six years old, I have only wanted to do one thing, and that's to tell stories. For me, the visual and literary arts go hand in hand. So when I was nine, I dragged my father to DC Comics HQ in NYC to solicit my first superhero, Red Panther. By fourteen, I was sending out queries for my first novel, The Nomad. In high school, I discovered I was not quite as talented in drawing and painting, but I continued to hone my passion for the written word, until earning my BA in English Fiction at the University of South Florida. I continue to find inspiration in the visual arts, sometimes forming entire plotlines from a single image.
I am always on the lookout for dedicated artists to help bring Aenya to life. The pieces I commission are for promotional purposes, but more importantly, they inspires me. I look for artists who specialize in portraits, with an emphasis on the human form, and fantasy landscapes.
