Tales of Narda: Book One: Road to Andolan
The land of an environment that is both incredibly enchanting and extremely dangerous. A continent of rivers and woods, of mountains and plains, of deserts and flowering fields.
In times past, the Nydar, Syndar and Tynar races of Eldarin, colonizers of Narda in the First Age, lived in harmony. That all changed when one of their own set up separate rule in the East, taking charge by murdering and exiling his own people. Survivors of the onslaught fled to another land, far away.
But ... they have always longed to return.
Finally, after 60 years, a plan was set in motion.
Join Eathelon and his brave companions on their challenging journey through this land, inhabited by giant Northmen, Lit'ls, an evil King and his treacherous forces, as well as exotic creatures such as Fyrcaats, Baerwolffs, Sinter Hawks, and more, in their adventurous and, at times, harrowing, quest to find the missing Seeing Stones and to restore their homeland to its former glory.

This book is aimed at teen readers and young at heart. It is the first book in a series of works in progress. It is a very intriguing and entertaining Fantasy Adventure Quest in a Distant Land, with some Action, a few Mythical Creatures, and a little Romance thrown in. A story of a 'Quest' for the people of Andolan who were forced to flee their City to be able to return to their beloved home once more. Very well written and very enjoyable. I look forward to reading Book 2.

"Tales of Narda," Book One, "Road to Andolan," starts with a shipwreck and proceeds from there with colorful characters, seemingly impossible goals, the Good Guys fighting the Bad Guys, creatures unknown to us Earthlings, empathy, telepathy, and a bit of romance to spice things up even more. What more could a reader want?! A Glossary, you say? Yup, it's there. And this is only Book One. Can't wait for the other three!

This is the first book in a planned four book "Tales of Narda" series. If you enjoy fantasy books with richly populated worlds, interesting backstories, road trips, and worthy quests, you are in for a treat. Mix in some magic, romance and mystery and you have the perfect recipe for a great ride.

“Road to Andolan,” the first volume of the “Tales of Narda” fantasy series by D. R. Casselman, starts off with a bang! The tale is full of action and adventure coupled with a bit of mystery. You will grow to love the heroes, possibly despise the villains, a little or a lot, and discover some quite unique creatures roaming the land. Narda is a rich and imaginative world within your grasp. Be prepared to get swept away into this saga that will undoubtedly grow in even more depth as the story carries you off to another time and another place.
