Produktbeschreibung

Welcome back as we join Jalen Bloom, old friends and new on another adventure through a world of magic and mysticism-Calladrin. Dragonsoft, the laptop business founded in Los Angeles, had been going strong for over a decade and a half, with Jim Foley happily married to Summer and raising their beloved fifteen-year-old son, Ralius. A break from adventuring had been positive as the time spent together allowed the good-natured kid to take after his father and focus on being a normal teenager. However, in his other life, Ralius was an apprentice blade-hand, or hero of Calladrin, a defender of the land. Ralius, along with his tall elven best friend, Riel, were both transitioning from boys to adults as they trained secretly with weapons to keep their abilities up in case of trouble. Both families, the human Bloom's and elven Sharpe's, worked together at Dragonsoft with Cleft, the mighty shaman, posing as lead programmer. Swen Sharp and Lexia, his wife, a.k.a. Riel's mom and dad worked as corporate lawyers and traders for Dragonsoft with the help of magic. Jim Foley, Jalen's Los Angeles alter persona, had been raising his son, rarely returning to the fantasy land of his true origin during a quiet phase of his life. It was a normal day at the office until the ghost of a fallen dwarf from the past came to warn Jim of danger, followed by goblins demanding the poor human's head. Suffice it to say, Jalen, Swen, Summer, and Cleft were needed back in Calladrin again. The question was would the kids come along this time? If you like, ghosts, remote viewing, astral projection, telepathy, portals, time travel, elemental magic, mythical and mythological creatures, paleontology, dinosaurs, alien technology, medieval armaments, demons, shape-shifting or talismans, and if even if you don't, you may want to take a look inside . . . Prepare for an adventure in the tradition of epic fantasy as you enjoy Dragon Flute, the second installment in the Dragon Talisman series!

Autorenporträt

Jordan Gabriel Zlotolow was born in Los Angeles on September 20, 1977, the youngest of three boys to parents from different continents. His passion for travel and the exotic was instilled in him early as his Israeli mother, actually originally born in Arad, Romania, took him, his two brothers, and his father to the holy land every summer for many years. With Adolfo being from Mendoza, Argentina, Jordan got to go there too but only once and as incident with a badger in the zoo combined with the distance probably explains why it had only been one trip. Growing up in Los Angeles, California, and being bilingual in Spanish, Jordan was always immersed in languages and cultures from around the world at an early age. Jordan was always a storyteller before he started writing. A famous orator, he would give lengthy speeches about nothing in particular then graduated to making tape recordings on family trips. One time his father had one of the tapes transcribed by a secretary and that technically was the first writing he did. Officially starting in seventh grade due to a creative writing exercise, he became a writer. He would also be the focus of senior year writing comp, having his stories read to the class by the teacher. A slew of short stories later, started during his senior year of high school, Dragon Blade marked the first of three novels and a novella that would be written later. Being well read in the realm of fantasy he is inspired by J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Terry Brooks, Roger Zelazny, Piers Anthony and in terms of Eyes of the Dragon, Stephen King as well. Hopefully Jordan's other three books will eventually be published as Jordan admits that though Dragon Blade is amazing and a milestone in his life, they are even better.
