Cryptic If you’ve been digging around on this site then you may have found the “Mystery Symbol” page with the above graphic and a vague line relating to it and chance to start guessing about it (thus far, no one has tried). Well, in an effort to spur things on a little, I’ll …

What’s New In Maldene II
Okay, so my second great Maldene novel is out so you’re gonna want to know what’s new in this one. Besides the fact that it’s all in one single self-contained book this time (no more dividing it into 2 volumes). Returning characters, plot hints, and so on. Well, that’s what this article is all about …

Maldene II: An Inside Look
The date is nearing, and I’ve already posted a little excerpt, but what more does this second full Maldene novel offer? Well, first let’s recap the events of the first 2-volume novel. Sabu, Eldar, Sindar, and their friends found themselves on a little quest that led them to a far bigger quest: find out some …

Preview Snapshot From Maldene II
Okay, here’s the first little sneak-peek into “Maldene II: Mysteries Of Olde”. Just a little scene taken from the pages of Chapter One. As they say, I hope you enjoy the show… Flash of flaming steel, rapid thump of fist crunching through bone. Cry of triumph, twinkle of silvery-blue eyes, a blur whirling …

Who Says What
Certain characters will speak in certain ways, say certain types of things; that’s universal for any good book. What I thought I’d do here is go a little bit through my thought processes of how I decide who says what types of lines. Does Eldar say it? Sabu? Mauklo? Consider this little flow chart that …

First Maldene Vid-Log
Well, just thought I’d give this YouTube thing a bit more of a try, so I’ve started with a little quick one listing a couple more factoids about the books. Just enough to wet your appetite. That said, you’ll find the vid imbedded below and linked to on the Video Page…

Places Of Maldene: Thïr Glomdäitaÿor
Okay, so first you ask what’s with the funky name. The funky name in question is the city-castle of the King. Not just any king, but thee King (notice I spelled it with a Capital “K”), the one guy trying to engineer his own counter-plot to that of Miro by recruiting few heros. Needless to …

Characters of Maldene: Shong
Young, reserved, and with the most innate skill with the sword of anyone around, Shong is also friend and fighting buddy to Bronto. Between Bronto’s massive strength and Shong’s hyper precision with the blade, there is nothing this duo can’t stand up against. More than just a normal swordsman, Shong is also part acrobat. He’s …

Characters of Maldene: Lindel
One of the secondary characters in our main group is an elf named Lindel. With the bow he is unsurpassed, able to hit just about anything that he can see. That would be normal enough for a fantasy world elven archer on steroids, but Maldene has a bit of the real world in it. Like …

Maldene Behind The Scenes: The Alphabet
The world not only has its own language but its own alphabet as well. Completely alien characters that do not always match up exactly to corresponding English equivalents. For one thing, it’s entirely phonetic. There is no long and short version of the same vowel, but a different letter for each. Different sound means different …
