Author Interview

Check out this author interview I did with
the_bookaddictz.

It was fun to share some background about my writing journey including:

Can you tell us about your journey as an author?
I actually co-wrote a pair of children’s picture books; Alice the Barn Kitten & Oscar’s guide to getting a horse ready to ride with my daughter a few years ago but Fantasy has always been my favorite genre. I love how immersive and creative a fantasy world can be. How the heroes face challenges, solve problems and work together to do what they feel is right. That can be so inspirational, you can learn a lot from fiction that can apply in the real world while enjoying the fantastic adventures someone else’s imagination has created.

"a true standout for fans of classic fantasy."

"Magic portals, demonic spawn, and a classic crew of noble heroes make Sword of Vengeance an immersive clash of good and evil... Adams weaves together an original epic with a complex hero at the helm, illustrating how traditional fantasy stories can still surprise when crafted with such precision. Expertly blending coming-of-age drama, cinematic action, and layered character development, this novel is a true standout for fans of classic fantasy. — Self-Publishing Review

People enjoying what I wrote is the best part of being a writer

It took me a while to write my first novel.
Draft after draft until I was happy with how the story was shaping up.

Eventually you need to get input from others and I am so grateful to all the beta readers who gave me feedback to help me sharpen the final version published in June on Amazon and Kindle.

They compared it to some other books I had read and others I had not. A few of those ended up on my TBR and I've now enjoyed reading them as well.

I have loved visiting the worlds created by other authors and hope you will enjoy the world of Sword of Vengeance too!

Reader's Favorite 5 Star Review!

"Sword of Vengeance is a thrilling fantasy adventure steeped in betrayal, divine wrath, and the burden of grief. It delivers cinematic action, rich worldbuilding, and emotional depth through the journey of Gerald Caelen—a Guardian Knight driven by vengeance and honor. With a diverse cast, powerful themes, and morally complex characters, this is an epic tale where gods meddle, monsters roam, and heroes are forged through sacrifice. A gripping, character-driven saga for fantasy fans."
