I enjoy reading so much it was the next logical step... Write my own story that I can enjoy, my family can enjoy, and hopefully readers can enjoy. The First Realm comes from my enjoyment of the Fantasy Genre.

Science fiction base for a dungeons and dragons type culture. Author has good, funny and unexpected turns of phrase. Humans more Beowulf type super strong and durable<br /> characters than "human." Last dragon regarding skeletons of his race manages to be funny and tragic at the same time, hard to write that well. Lorna Freeman another author who can do that. Looking forward to rest of the series.</div> <div class="drkgry">Helen</div> </div> </div> </div>
