Land, First Book, All the Way

ALL THE WAY is the first book in THE LAND, a new great tale, planned to comprise five volumes. Without a preset stage of wizards, dragons, and monsters, the magic of this tale rests on powers growing from within; there is no birthright to power and glory, and the outer action is no more important than the inner journey. Slowly the tale reveals the unfolding of faith throughout the land, growing from the deep roots, the blessing of mothers. There is no omniscient storyteller: the reader is thrown right into the action from the very first sentence. With its details, hints, and riddles, resulting from years of study and elaboration, the story may attract and challenge a rather diverse group of fairy tale lovers including people with interest in horses, astronomy, runes, archaeology, religion, psychology, detective/suspense stories, delicate English, and graphic design: rune lovers will enjoy the special typefaces based on the essence of the known early inscriptions.
