Gareth is sure he’ll get superpowers one day, but for now, they’re just lost in transit. Until they arrive, he might as well write about the ones he hopes are coming.

He has been reading fantasy stories for nearly twenty years and is always looking for something new. Therefore, his goal is to write books about things he’s never seen before.

So if you fancy something a little different, give this book a try.

If anything I have too many ideas to contend with and have to fight myself for which one to put down.

However, as a golden rule whenever I'm struggling with anything writing related, I find that just writing down anything helps, as the process of writing gets the creative juices flowing and often leads to the answers I'm seeking. (less)

This story needs to end ASAP. I would be happy to see future novels about Lark that once more follows his journey to regaining his Arch Magus status and potentially moving beyond that, but this series hasn't been that for a long time now and is suffe ...more
