History of Lataria tells about the different races and peoples in Lataria: the elves, dwarves, and vampires. Themes such as power, loyalty, and love are explored as the characters alternately fight with one another and sometimes help one another.History of Lataria recounts the history of a mythological land that has a rich history and culture that includes gods, elves, dragons, and gnomes. The richness of this land consists in the interrelations of these creatures. The history and struggle between good and evil reveals that no setting or character is exempt from the balances and influences of good and evil. Inanimate objects such as the star (which is actually a special rock set in the ground), the fractured star, and the pedestals (in which the star sits), and the key (the item that allows the pedestal to be opened and the star to be broken or stolen), assert how much emphasis is being placed upon physical objects and how these objects maintain power over many people. Read the history of the warriors, vampires, and lamias, and experience how similar or dissimilar human beings actually are to those of different races and ethnicities. The History of Lataria provides background knowledge that leads into the book I published last year called Lamia: A Fantasy.
