Jake Adler lives in Norfolk, England where the land is flat and wild. This serves as a perfect haven to wildlife, as well as to humans who love to roam and daydream about the world of fantasy. When he's not daydreaming or writing about fantasy, he indulges in amateur bird watching as well as dog walking.

If you are unsure about his books, please download the preview sample. You can also click on the printed book tab and type in a keyword of something that you enjoy in a good book.

After the Nemedian trilogy , he is writing a darker fantasy entitled 'The Black Crystal'. To learn more you can visit his blog: http://magickingdoms.wordpress.com/ or see updates on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/jake.adler.712

“Aye lass,” nodded Gizurr, “you are quite the beauty for sure. I’d certainly offer to buy you a beer or two if I ever met you in a pub and that’s a fact.”
Ragni tutted and elbowed Gizurr in the ribs, “Have some respect, she looks young enough to be your daughter.”
“Well she isn’t is she?” snorted Gizurr, “She’s been trapped here for over two thousand years, made to think that she’s an ugly old bird and fooled by some arse wipe into protecting a lump of rock that is perfectly capable of looking after itself.”
Ragni pursed his lips and nodded slowly in agreement.”
Jake Adler, The Dragon's Cup

“Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope.”
Dr. Seuss

“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisioned by the enemy, don't we consider it his duty to escape?. . .If we value the freedom of mind and soul, if we're partisans of liberty, then it's our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can!”
J.R.R. Tolkien

“Have you thought of an ending?"
"Yes, several, and all are dark and unpleasant."
"Oh, that won't do! Books ought to have good endings. How would this do: and they all settled down and lived together happily ever after?"
"It will do well, if it ever came to that."
"Ah! And where will they live? That's what I often wonder.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“Aye lass,” nodded Gizurr, “you are quite the beauty for sure. I’d certainly offer to buy you a beer or two if I ever met you in a pub and that’s a fact.”
Ragni tutted and elbowed Gizurr in the ribs, “Have some respect, she looks young enough to be your daughter.”

Jake Adler, The Dragon's Cup

“The second thing you have to do to be a writer is to keep on writing. Don't listen to people who tell you that very few people get published and you won't be one of them. Don't listen to your friend who says you are better that Tolkien and don't have to try any more. Keep writing, keep faith in the idea that you have unique stories to tell, and tell them. I meet far too many people who are going to be writers 'someday.' When they are out of high school, when they've finished college, after the wedding, when the kids are older, after I retire . . . That is such a trap You will never have any more free time than you do right now. So, whether you are 12 or 70, you should sit down today and start being a writer if that is what you want to do. You might have to write on a notebook while your kids are playing on the swings or write in your car on your coffee break. That's okay. I think we've all 'been there, done that.' It all starts with the writing. ”
Robin Hobb
