Dranus VIII is Sorcerer-King of Varz, a nation equally known for its wicked ambition and ruthless sorcery. He is of the most powerful mortals in this world and he is bored.
When a would-be usurper named Deleron attacks Dranus, a mysterious Book is discovered. A book that speaks is basic sorcery, but this one has personality, along with the ability to reproduce anything that's ever been written.
Sensing the time is right for a resurgence in his people's greatness, Dranus uses the Book to gather powerful relics of his ancient ancestors'. As he and his people prepare for war, they begin to truly experience life like they haven't in many generations.

Person
Ryan Hampton is a Psychologist and Neuroscientist who studies culture and emotions outside of his work as a fantasy author. Ryan is an avid consumer of stories across genres, platforms, and history and takes inspiration from experiences in world cultures. Ryan's favorite author is Michael Moorcock and he draws inspiration for the dark and strange from such works as Elric of Melniboné and The Chronicles of Corum. Ryan's take on classic fantasy focuses on mature, emotion-accurate characters and relationships, imaginative and innovative settings, and classic head-turning plot twists! In The Book of Fate's Desire, he explores themes of personal growth and the struggle against destiny while reversing traditional tropes to be experienced from the villain's perspective. The Book of Fate's Desire is the first of the Books of Fate Trilogy and is Ryan's first fantasy novel.
