Hi, my name is Cameron O’Brien. Thanks for taking the time to look at my book. I have been interested in fantasy and sci-fi stories all my life, and always wanted to—one day—write my own books. Until recently, I did not feel as though I was ready.
Then, in 2023, something tragic happened, and I got thinking a lot about life, the universe and everything; and in that time a story idea came to me. The idea bounced around in my head for a while. At first, it was just Deor and her backstory, but it began to develop.
In late 2024 I began writing it, and about three months later a draft was complete: 88,000 words. I reworked things, got editorial help (thanks, Tahlia Newland!), reworked more things, and eventually—here we are. Deor, Sammu, Dolus, Sage and everyone else came to life.
Their story is now being told.
