The Faerie Chronicles series is a renewal of Celtic Mythology. Many fantasy series draw from Norse, Egyptian, Roman or Greek mythologies, but Celtic myths have remained mostly unexplored...until now. I began writing The Scions of Faerie in 2003 when my wife and I learned we would have a baby. I wanted to write a book for Young Adults that my son would enjoy as a teenager. Over the last fifteen years, the book series has undergone several significant changes, but my greatest joy was hearing my son read the 3^rd book in the series and scream, “No! I want to know what happens next! You need to finish the series NOW!”
