Interview With Author Harrison Davies
In "The Aduramis Chonicle: Destiny of the Wulf (Er'ath #1) brothers Coinin and Marrok must fulfill a destiny that has surrounded them since before they were born; to prevent Death, which seeks to rule as king of gods, to consume all life on Er'ath.
What does author Harrison Davies have to say about "Destiny of the Wulf"?
Q: The difficult circumstances that Coinin and Marrok face together put a strain on their relationship. Do you think most sibling relationships would survive the storms these two have to weather; or is there something special about Coinin and Marrok?
A: Coinin and Marrok are strong as they are united by a unique magical bond. They despise their uncle and this only strengthens their belief that they have only each other. If it weren’t for their unique bond, I believe they would have parted company long ago. Their relationship is strained on several occasions, but common sense prevails and they realise that they need each other.
Q: Is there a character in “Destiny of the Wulf” that you particularly identify with?
A: I identify will all characters, as there is an element of my own personality in each. Although, I do identify mostly with Coinin. My childhood was fraught with a degree of suffering and trials no child should encounter, and his emotions are similar to those I experienced.
Q: If “Destiny of the Wulf” were made into a film who would you want to direct it?
A: That is the most difficult question ever! Actually destiny is being written as a screenplay as I speak by a very talented scriptwriter. Christopher Nolan would be my ideal Director.
Q: Describe what you think your typical fan is like?
A: Does my mother count ha-ha? Seriously though, my fans, although few in number, range from 15 to 66 years of age from a variety of backgrounds so I haven’t been able to pin a typical fan down to a category just yet.
Q: Do your books often turn out differently than they way you originally planned?
A: Almost always, Destiny of the Wulf is slightly shorter than I envisioned, but I can use what I left out in future books. I do have a plan, but I prefer to be fluid in my writing, you write better that way. Being rigid, I think, will stifle the creativity.
Q: What do you hope to accomplish with “The Aduramis Chronicles”
A: My ideal would be to entertain, but to finish the whole 16 books planned is my ultimate goal. A film wouldn’t be too shabby either. I want people to look back and think, ‘I really enjoyed that, and came away satisfied that I’ve read a good story’.
