IN ONE YEAR, THE EMPIRE WILL HANG BRINA'S FATHER. SHE WON'T LET THEM. Brina Springtide carries her father's legacy like a curse. She was only a child when his assassination of the empire's divine ruler cast the realm into chaos and ripped apart what remained of her family. Left to fend for herself, Brina feels powerless against the crushing grip of the empire. Until she unearths a mysterious artifact in an abandoned mine. As Brina discovers her hidden powers, she is sucked into a shadow world of banned magic, thievery, and rebellion. No longer alone, she finds herself surrounded by the very people the empire swore to destroy: sparkgazers. Inspired by Brina's father, these sorcerers have been conspiring in secret to tear down the empire. Step one of their plan? To free the man who started it all. With a crew of unlikely companions, Brina sets out for the infamous prison of God's Maul. Between its blackened walls and labyrinthine passages, her father counts his final days. She might get in, but will she get back out?
Autorenporträt
Hi there! My name is Dan. I am the author of the epic fantasy series The Sparkgazer Saga. I was born in 1994, and I live in the greatest city on earth: Ghent, Belgium. (Seriously, look up 'Gravensteen' and tell me I'm lying.) I've always been a bit of a misfit. To me, the real world is like one of those woolen Christmas sweaters, it's itchy, sweaty, and tight around the chest. Stories provide an escape from that. They allow us, if only for a moment, to forget the mundane and to experience life from a new perspective. There is something magical about getting lost in strange new worlds filled with monsters, sorcery, and larger-than-life personalities. Some characters become friends, others bitter enemies. Each of them teaches us something about life and ourselves. Ever since I read Lord of the Rings as a kid, I dreamed of one day adding my own contribution to the vast and diverse world of fantasy literature. I wanted to do for some lonely kid sitting in their bedroom with nothing but a stack of books for company, what Tolkien, Sanderson, and Pratchett did for me. I started many times, and I stopped just as often. In the end, DM'ing a Dungeons and Dragons campaign for my friends gave me just enough confidence to push through. It took me close to five years, but today I am proud to say my debut trilogy The Sparkgazer Saga is officially finished. And I am far from done. Thank you for your interest in my work, it means everything to me. I will continue to strive to bring you the best stories I possibly can. New realms and characters are already in the works.
