Goodreads asked Christian Alex Breitenstein:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Christian Alex Breitenstein Well, Xandrian Stone has grown over a long time and still is growing. That's one of the reasons I am releasing the Xandrian Stone books as shortbooks, which are essentially the chapters of a larger book.
This way I can react to feedback and correct mistakes or clarify unclear things.
But to the question: I have always been a great fan of Horatio Hornblower or Richard Bolitho. Without the needed knowledge about naval warfare in the late 18th and early 19th century I constructed a setting for these stories by inventing a whole new universe. That way I am free to do as I please to deliver you a story full of adventure, hardship and - eventually - victory.
