Jesse Booth (tulkas) | 3 comments This past October marked the publication of my first novel, Core of the Nations. Today, I was walking through the University of Utah's Campus Store and I noticed that it was sitting on display. This brought a smile to my face... but then I got the chills when I saw it sitting next to Tolkien's Fellowship of the Ring. I got the chills. There is no way my novel comes even close to The Lord of the Rings, or anything Tolkien wrote for that matter. But seeing my name next to Tolkien's was something I never thought I'd see. I had to take a picture! Anyway, I thought I'd share!

Jesse Booth (tulkas) | 3 comments It is an apocalyptic story based on two main characters who are preserved to start the world all over again... But the real catch in the book is that this isn't the first time the world has come to an end. In fact, the world has ended several times! There is quite a bit of historical fiction involved. If you want to know more let me know!
