Cari lettori, come annunciato in precedenza, il mio prossimo romanzo sarà: "Playing with daggers".
Oggi vi propongo una panoramica del mio progetto bilingue "The Tidssons' Archives", che include "Playing with daggers", "Law kills", "Sorcerer for sale", "Deal or die" e almeno altri due romanzi connessi. Ogni libro narra una storia a sé stante, però tutti sono collegati e vanno letti nell'ordine giusto.
"The Tidssons' Archives" è una serie urban fantasy per adulti. Dicendo questo non intendo una collezione di romanzi erotici. Specifico "per adulti" perché le storie sono violente, drammatiche, sanguinarie e trattano droghe, uccisioni e il mercato nero. Il personaggio principale della serie è la trafficante Kara Schwert, che attraversa una fase di dipendenza da alcool e droghe per alleviare il dolore e i fastidi causati dalla magia e da altri fattori. Le storie sono oscure e ricche di azione ma c'è anche dello spazio per l'umorismo!
La serie è ambientata nella Germania settentrionale a Stahlburg, una città fittizia fra Amburgo e Kiel. Conosco la zona piuttosto bene, dato che ci ho vissuto per un anno, prima di trasferirmi in un'altra regione. Ogni storia contiene molte parole e concetti che richiamano la tradizione norrena e scandinava, come rune e divinità pagane.
Il libro numero uno, che pubblicherò molto presto, è "Playing with daggers". Qui l'idea principale è mostrare come Kara Schwert è diventata quella che è e chi diventerà nel resto della serie. Trovo che sia molto importante spiegare perché si evolva in un certo modo, perché il suo comportamento è cruciale per il successivo sviluppo della storia. La sua vita è sconvolta dalla morte ma anche toccata da amore e magia. In questo primo romanzo ci sono anche due figure maschili centrali per la vita di Kara: Axel von Steinfeld, magico, nobile, potente e Karl, umano, agente speciale, coraggioso.
Ci sono molti personaggi che appaiono nella serie e il primo romanzo è un'introduzione a questo mondo misterioso. Conoscerete i gemelli Tidsson, l'avvocato vampiro Johan Herzmann e altri che torneranno nei seguiti.
Continuate a seguirmi per scoprire la data di pubblicazione!
ENGLISH - Bilingual post
Dear readers!
As previously announced, my next novel is going to be: .
Today I’m giving you an overview of my bilingual project “The Tidssons’ Archives”. It includes “Playing with daggers”, “Law kills”, “Sorcerer for sale”, “Deal or die” and at least two more connected novels. Each book narrates a story of its own but they are all linked and should be read following the right order.
“The Tidssons’ Archives” is an urban fantasy series for adults. By saying that I don’t mean that it’s a collection of erotic novels. I specify “for adults”, because the stories are violent, dramatic, bloody and treat drugs, killings and the black market.
The main character of the series is the dealer Kara Schwert, who goes through a phase of addiction to alcohol and drugs to relieve the pain and distress caused by magic and other factors. The stories are dark and full of action but there is place for some humor too!
The series is set in Northern Germany in Stahlburg, a fictitious city between Hamburg and Kiel. I know the area pretty well, since I lived there for one year before settling down in another region. Each story contains lots of words and concepts recalling Norse and Scandinavian lore, like runes and pagan gods.
Book one, which I’ll be publishing very soon, is “Playing with daggers”.
Here the main idea is showing how Kara Schwert has become who she is and who she is going to be in the rest of the series. I find it very important to explain why she evolves in a certain way, because her behavior is crucial for the further development of the story. Her life is plagued by death but also blessed with love and magic. In this first novel there are also two main male figures with a big role in Kara’s life: Axel von Steinfeld, fay, noble, powerful and Karl, human, special agent, brave.
There are many characters starring in the series and book one is an introduction to this mysterious world. You’ll get to know the Tidssons’ twins, the vampire lawyer Johan Herzmann and others who will return in the next installments.
Keep following me to know the release date!
