It is there where he meets his father for the first time, in search of the answers and reasons his mother refuses to discuss. At the risk of his life, he learns that finding the truth requires knowing The Tale of Onora.From the AuthorI've been working on The Tale of Onora since 2010. I wrote a trilogy of screenplays which I then began to convert into books. Each screenplay is a lengthy 150 pages or so, and Books One through Three will be released in 2014. I've only made it through page 25 in adaptation of the first screenplay, so prepare for the long haul, for as long as I don't die, this series is going to be a great one with probably over ten books when all is said and done. The ultimate goal of mine is to generate enough buzz/sales around this eBook that I can then prepare a business presentation to make financial sense to the people who invest in films, so that they can see how they'll get a return on their investment, and then some, should they put forth their capital to make this happen. A series like "Harry Potter" for a mature audience is the target goal. I wrote this because I'm fed up of the majority of art in this world being created by the lowest common denominators of society. I want renaissance. I want beauty. I want to live in a world where people empathize with each other and respect each other's views and beliefs, so long as they don't infringe upon the freedom of others. I am fully aware that the way I want the world to be is a perfect stranger to the way the world really is, but I am also aware that real change comes from within, and we must each be the change we wish to see.
