A mysterious castle. Fearsome beasts. Let’s go there!
It's release day for A Castle Sealed -- the prequel novella for my Castle in the Wilde trilogy.
If you are wondering whether I wrote this prequel as a teaser for the trilogy...nope. (In fact, I'm annoyed that it messed up my numbering.) I could say that stories just happen, which is true, but I don't publish them unless they answer a question of their own.
By the time I finished writing the first novel, Tristan's earlier story had become as vibrant in my mind as his later struggles. To me, the search for one's place in the grand scheme of things is often harder than conquering the impossible or discovering that special person. Granted, it's also a life-long journey, but this is one point in Tristan's story where he can't deny he is searching.
Besides, it was just plain fun to write the camaraderie between Tristan, Cotrell and James, and to hint at the mysteries of the next two novels.
I hope you enjoy this hundred-page novella. I would love to hear what you think of it.
