Welcome to Solencia, a realm where the people live in peace and Wizards govern…
Until that fateful day, treachery swept across the land to slaughter the magic upon the mountain.
Told of in prophecy, a boy is torn from the love of his family and is ‘Bound’ with magic to survive. He is hidden from those who seek to destroy him as the people struggle to survive under the rule of a tyrant Lord and his evil Sorceress, and magic becomes a hidden art.
Over the years, the young boy grows discontent…
Until the day, a secret is revealed… a journey begins… and a choice is made.
A choice, which will be for all in the realm.
Join Christopher and his friends as they begin a journey of discovery, a coming of age tale, which will see them face danger more than once and have them hatch a daring escape. Race with them across the country in a bid to save his love from certain death and find out how a secret will change the world they live in. Bound to Survive is a coming of age story of sword and sorcery, wizardly love, war and intrigue steeped in a mystical age of magic.
Interview with the Author
Q – So, what makes Bound to Survive (Book 1 in the Magic Within Series) special?
A – It’s a mix of things, really. When I set out to write this book, I wanted to create something that I loved. The exact kind of book I wanted to read. My top picks are usually the coming of age quests, any of the thousands of sword and sorcery fantasy best sellers, and, of course, books featuring your classic heroes. Basically, anything with magic and a fast-paced style gets my vote.
Q – Are you writing any other books?
A – Yes! I’m currently writing a prequel and sequel.
Resurrection of an Empire, Book 2 of the Magic Within Series and Beginnings, the prequel.
The prequel novel will take you back to a time before magic and sorcery existed, to a time where Kings ruled men. A story of how magic came to the wizards.
I’m excited about both these books. Being able to create witches and wizards, treachery and mayhem and write another depth into the world I’ve created is a truly amazing experience. One that I know you will love.
Overall, the Magic Within series is designed to keep you turning the pages – and I’ve made sure there’s never a dull moment.
thanks for reading!
