ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Rufin De Villiers is a passionate and intelligent writer who grew up on a small farm in the country with a canvas that was always vast and open to his every daydream. His head always filled with imaginary worlds, sometimes for fun, sometimes for escapism, always hoping to one day share them with readers and those who loved fantasy as much as he does. He has been writing stories ever since he could read, and has no plans to stop.

"An enlightening and unnerving thrill ride into the fantastical world of true imagination...A wonderful read to be thoroughly enjoyed by everyone who loves dragons and mythical adventures...Tolkien would be a fan..." Jeremy, IndieBooks Reviewer.
