Middlemen: Born of Earth

Middlemen: Born of Earth cover

Here is the new cover for the first book in Elton’s new series, Middlemen: Born of Earth.  It was fun illustrating this for him, but even more fun reading the book!

In case you’re wondering what it’s about, here’s his description: “Born of flesh and not spirit, mortal humans have been created to decide the eternal war of Highmen and Lowmen. But numbering only twelve they must first discover how to survive by convincing potential enemies that they are both strong enough and good enough to be allowed to exist. On the way they discover potential enemies and potential allies, while all the time learning of the world they have been placed in and what it truly means for them to be the deciding factor in a war that has been waged since before time and space were created.”

I’m a huge fan of fantasy literature, and what appeals to me most about this book is how Elton was able to come up with a truly original world that didn’t feel like a copy of any fantasy novel I’ve read before.  Because of this, predictable plot points just do not exist here, and that leaves you truly wondering what will happen next.  The characters are varied and interesting, and the way magic and the various creatures  are handled is unique, as well.   Elton has created a detailed world with big themes of fate, choice, and family that will definitely carry this series as it moves forward.

You can download the digital version right now on Amazon.  We will have some copies in print in time for our next appearances.  I really hope you check it out!
