Mark Tierno (mark_tierno) | 86 comments Is it just a story about Good vs Evil? No.
Is it simply another Medieval-era fantasy story? No.
Is it even remotely connected with Earth? No.
Is the overall plot a simple single plotline? No.
Just what IS Maldene then?
An alien world, very far away; one where many of the popular tropes of Fantasy mix with those of Science Fiction in a unique world background. A unique Multiverse.
It is a world, a destiny, a legend, the focus of Fate itself in both the figurative and literal sense. It is a world of heros and villains, a world where magic is as prevalent in everyday life as electricity is for those of Earth. It is a world steeped in hidden mysteries, the greatest of which by far has been too long forgotten.
It is a story that stretches across the world of Maldene, through other planes of existence, across time itself. A story that long unfolds with the machinations of an ancient evil, a plot that takes many twists and turns throughout its 13-novel telling.
It is a world home to many things, things of greatness and wonder, vileness and virtue. But over it all reigns the shadow of the darkest of evils, that to which every other villain is subservient and from which even gods hide. One who plans centuries in advance, the true master of the game. The ultimate villain seeking out the ultimate prize.
And this is just the beginning.
