The Rise of Greater Adlanduz: Wind of Change by Robert Gaspari

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

This is my re-imagined story of the lost continent of Atlantis as they extended their realm into the fertile trade lands of the Mediterranean Ocean. The magnificent children of the gods brought culture to their more primitive brothers and sisters well before the rise of the Egyptians, Greek or Romans who their culture served as the basis for.
These giants among men towered over the peoples of the inland ocean and brought trade, peace and prosperity to their neighbors. The Adlanduzans raised the standard of living and quality of life in the region and reigned for a thousand years. The empire was lost in the annals of time but lived on in legends passed down in various tongues that modified the pronunciation of their name. Even today, many remember tales of the lost continent of Atlantis and Atlantean culture. (Adlanduz and the Adlanduz people).

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I will watch anything about Atlantis. So why not recreate the lost continent, a cast of imaginary characters, and epic events. It allowed my mind to range from one end of the historical realm to the fantastic.

Could you survive if taken as a slave and forced to become a vicious warrior?

In a world where men believe they can become gods, Narcel searches for his missing brother while trying not to let the girl of his dreams slip away to his older cousin. Evidence for his brother’s disappearance points to the rival warrior clan, the Mawtu, a ruthless group of warriors… which could mean only one thing: war on the horizon.

His world is thrown upside down when he’s taken by the warrior clan know as the Mawtu and made to become one of their slaves and fighters.

At first he’s all alone, caught between his will to live and his hatred for these people. But soon allegiances form and the legends of the gods begin to tempt him and his brothers. If he can survive through training and establish himself in these warrior ranks, Narcel may be able to bring this land and its people to the peace he believes it deserves.

When his two worlds collide, the warrior brothers he’s trained with and learned to love, and the village of his youth, Narcel is forced to make a choice that will inevitably bring Braze to levels of war it has never seen.

Book 1 in the Falls of Redemption trilogy.

Featured Book: The Seventh Princess by Matt Larkin

Claim the Sea … Embrace Destiny

In every generation a Princess is born to each island of Sawaiki, blessed with the power to control a single aspect of the natural world. Namaka’s power is arguably the most valuable of them all–in a world of archipelagos and endless ocean, she control the seas themselves.

The mer people of the Worldsea despise her for this power over their domain, all the more so because she can barely control her gift. At war amongst themselves, they harness this uncontrolled power by possessing Namaka with a mermaid spirit–turning her into one of them. As Namaka struggles to accept this new existence, she’s faced with conflict above the waves and war below. And if she cannot control her powers, both her worlds face annihilation.
