September 1st, 2020: Book incoming!
Coming soon! The publication of the first novel of "The Vandraren Stories" is getting closer! If everythings works out as scheduled, I soon will be able to reveal the book title and hopefully also the exact publication date here! Until then, please find here as usual The Vandraren Short Stories, which will now equally function as a publication countdown - following the last Vandraren Short Story the novel will hopefully be available everywhere (and believe me, there aren't many Short Stories remaining anymore!). What the novel itself will be about? Well, let's go back to the basics. You always wanted to know, how Arwan and Tamina actually met in the first place? Why they are ghostchasers at all? And why Sadwyn only ever thinks about surfing? Then this book will be an absolute must-have! There, you will finally find the answers to all those questions (at least to the first two, the third will be already answered in the next Vandraren Short Story). Stay tuned!
May 1st, 2020: Website online!
I’d like to tell you a story. A daring story. A story of fantasy, of magic and of dreams. And in telling you this story, I’d like to take you on a journey with me. We don’t need to travel very far, neither in terms of time nor space. Yet it will also be a little strife through history. Our history. Don’t worry, I’m not planning on making this a dry history lesson and if I manage to make you smile every now and then, I’ve accomplished my mission.
The probably most amusing fact about this story is that I almost had decided to never write it down at all. But about a year ago, I thought better of it and started. And since then, the world of Arwan, Tamina and Sadwyn – which is our world as well – continues to grow.
The Vandraren Stories is a project, that is very near to my heart for already more than ten years and definitely not made for just a quick success and even less for quick profit. But since I have now decided to publish my work, this website will allow a first insight into the idea. You can also get to know the main characters Arwan, Tamina and Sadwyn, via little short stories. Reading them only takes a few minutes.
But at first I wish to thank all those, who have supported me while writing the story and also especially those, who have inspired it, so many years ago...
If you like to accompany my project The Vandraren Stories on its way from the idea to a finished series, keep coming back and see here the latest progress. Until then, I wish you all the best and may the undead always be well-disposed to you!
