Here is a sweeping, two-episode fantasy epic filled with a feast of visual detail, an action-packed quest, magical spells and potions, weaponry, psi powers, political intrigue, hand-to-hand combat, and relationships among humans, elves, dwarves, and an exotic blue-skinned race.

Painting brilliantly in word and deed, the author shows us two worlds, two technologies, two societies—one male dominated; the other, matriarchal. Discrimination, racism, sexism and hatred spawned from jealously play against compassion, love and humor. A medieval atmosphere is seeded with futuristic architecture, time portals and fantastic flying warships.

Eighteen riddles are woven into the novel’s 366 page story. Added to round out the epic are: an Elvish Dictionary; The History of The World: The First New Age and The Second New Age; The Runes of Elwolf; Maps; and Casts of Characters. This book is for the adolescent and older reader. Nudity is mentioned in slave scenes.

Frank Carradine is a technical, medical machinery engineer. A long-time science fiction fan, he produces extravagant wands, scepters and amulets as a hobby. Mr. Carradine is an Ohio resident.
