a comment on the FROSTBORN books

Today I would like to highlight a nice comment someone left about the FROSTBORN series on my website this weekend:

“We need more fantasy books with great adventures. The recent trend of angels, vampires and hopeless teenage girls has been flogged to death already and creates the wrong impression of the genre. I mean fantasy is an accommodating genre and all books have their place, but it shouldn’t be associated only with Twilight imitations.”

I agree, which is one of the reasons I wrote FROSTBORN. I had always wanted to do a big epic fantasy with elves and orcs and wizards and such, but since publishers mostly do not buy such books any longer, I never had the chance before the age of ebooks began. What I wanted to do was to write a book series that recreated the feel of a really epic RPG adventure, the sort that extends over several years.

Anyway, I am glad that I have (apparently) succeeded so far, and I hope to continue to do so with the rest of the series!
