The Element Saga Vol 1

by John E. L.

Overview

In the mystical realm of Maryland, the fabulous Charm City is abruptly awakened by a great power. A powerful nefarious evil has come to light and is determined to steal the Essence Scepter, and now wreaks havoc across the land.
Even The Elementals, a council of elders who guard over Charm City from their vantage point atop Castle Dorchester, and the council of witches, will find it a challenge to face up to this threat as one of their own has turned against them. They have vowed to protect the land and its people from this great evil, which has set its sights on what they covet most.
But into this mix come four college sophomores, known as The Descendants. They have what it takes to save the world from the impending apocalypse, each one gifted with special abilities and guided by the Oracle, and from one of them comes something that no-one was prepared for, The child out of time. The chosen one who was never meant to be. One who is stronger than them all and who has the power to wield the scepter.
But who is the child out of time? Do they have what it takes to unite them? And who will reign supreme?
Enter a world filled with dragons, giants, witches and Gods. Where a cunning and evil mastermind plots a path of revenge and betrayal.

About the Author

I'm a simple man with a rather complex vision of where I grew up. I an actor, singer and songwriter and I'm also a lonesome poet, which some might say is just a song with no music. I grew up in the vast cornfields in the small town of Hurlock Maryland. As a child I would play outside with all my friends and family just like most kids, only I would often allow my mind to wander off into the clouds. I wondered what it would be like if I were a superhero or a super villain and if so what kinds of powers would I have. Could I fly high above the cloud's, could I summon bolts of lightning to blast my opponents? Would I have the ability to manipulate the elements to do as my will commanded? The possibilities were seemingly endless, so I began drawing them out in a series of shorts, little comic books that my sister and I would create together to pass the time. Sometimes she would write, and I would illustrate, and sometimes we would switch, those truly were some of the best times of my life.
One day when I went back home to visit with my family after being away for what seemed like forever. I found myself sitting in my shed looking through all of my old childhood thing's, and I found an old notebook at the bottom of my storage bin. I opened it and much to my surprise I found one of the last comics my sister and I ever drew and wrote together. I found more notebooks the longer I sat out in that shed until I found one particular one, The Element Saga.
I brought that notebook home with me, and I couldn't put it down and after many months of the, should I or shouldn't I, followed by the year of what if's did I decide to start penning my first novel. In just over three years my comic book came to life and grew into four novels. I have officially got the writer's bug, and I can't stop now. Please join me on my journey and get to know my characters and see how I morphed Maryland into my world of Gods and Witches and Dragons and Giants. A vintage tale of love and betrayal set in a modern day setting of tragedy and triumph
