They say that legends are born, not made.

But for Jeremy Goodson and Masaru Hagen that is far from the truth. Confronted by something that neither of them can explain, two complete strangers from opposite sides of the world embark on an unforgettable journey that will forge them into living legends.

It has been almost 4,000 years since magic disappeared from the Earth. Hidden from humanity by the Veil, those who possess magic live in ancient settlements across the globe. Over the centuries, these beings have pierced the Veil, leaving behind glimpses and shadows of the fantastic and arcane. Fueled by distant memories and humanity’s desire for wonder, familiar stories of myths and legends have been passed down for thousands of years in nearly every culture and nation.

Jeremy Goodson, an average, overweight teacher in New York City finds his entire world turned upside down when a stranger tempts him to leave everything behind and start a journey that will test Jeremy’s mysterious gift and bring magic and hope back to humanity.

Masaru Hagen, the adopted son of American tech entrepreneurs living in Tokyo, has been guided by an unseen voice all his life. On the eve of his twentieth birthday, the voice leads him across thousands of miles, on a mysterious and perilous mission he alone can undertake.

But there are principalities of this world that will do whatever they can to stop Jeremy and Masaru and keep magic out of the hands of humanity forever.

One of these men will bring hope to the world; the other will bring death. The world they once knew will be changed forever, not only for themselves, but for everyone on Earth...and maybe not for the best.

Book Trailer:

 

The character of Ellesmere was originally a boy. I had Ellesmere and Mercurio as two male elves, best friends out to have a good time together. As I wrote the second draft, Ellesmere as a guy just didn't feel right. When I changed the character to female, it just opened this whole new world for this character and her larger role in the story.

World Building - I consider myself a deep world builder. I love stories with rich histories and cultures that seem realistic, but are completely made up because the author did his or her homework to really flesh out the world and its peoples. Deep world building asks the questions: Why? Why do these people live, act, and believe what they do? What geographical and atmospheric conditions shaped this culture's history? Why do the characters act and react the way they do?

Steven A. Guglich grew up in New York City. He lives in Williston, North Dakota with his wife, his four children, and his collection of books. He is an Elementary School Principal and is the 2020 North Dakota Principal of the Year.
