Book One: Battle In The Sky is the first of a five-book opening series which comprise this epic tale. Join Harl’ut, Vispushin and The Princess Bryn’lynn as they engage in desperate battle over the southern plain. You will be uplifted by the passionate and thrilling conclusion of the first installment of this fantasy adventure.
In Book Two: Descent Into The Abyss, Harl’ut recovers from his harrowing adventure from Book One: Battle In The Sky. He walks through the streets of The Ocean City, visits the Sculpture Garden and his friend, Elá, the bard, and engages in exciting training games with warrior/mentor, Calanctus. Then the story takes you down the throat of the vast volcano, Pla’than’taa, once worshipped as a god, where Harl’ut enacts a deadly initiation ritual, confronts the barbaric past of his people and battles a terrifying monster.
After Books one and two, Tales Of The Ocean City continues: Books Three through Five complete the opening series - The Vorm War - where the citizens of The Ocean City engage in epic conflict with their ancient enemy.
Then - in Book Six - the second ongoing series begins - The Green World - which resolves in book eight, which the author is completing now. Then Harl'ut and Vispushin and their fellow Ocean City citizens will explore 'The Star Kingdom' in the next series!
“Tales Of The Ocean City is a great story with music that creates a vivid sensual atmosphere. Powerful, extremely imaginative work!”
- Alexandria Pallas
David Korson for Readers’ Favorite - “A collage of vibrant images adorns the pages of Tales Of The Ocean City, treating readers to more than a simple fantasy narrative. Well-chosen colors and designs add emotive elements and offer thoughtful reflections of the unfolding battle sequences, creating an intensely immersive experience. Matching the feel of the imagery, the text includes abundant use of descriptive, almost poetic prose, which adds vigor to the exciting storyline. I found the overall experience to be hypnotic, both in the book’s vivid presentation and its innovation. Mixing qualities from graphic novels, abstract art, classic fantasy, and creative fiction, Christopher Kaufman's book is an imaginative adventure that is sure to engage your senses.”
