Starcharter - Chaika, Evan

. .

Résumé :
What is to be done about a universe struggling in the throes of death? It's a race against time to solve the mystery as to why homeworlds are drying out, freezing over, and becoming void of life. Follow the stories of Derron; a wayward king in a frozen expanse searching for knowledge, Joshya; the prince of a subterranean civilization forced to take lead too soon, Almond; a farmgirl hellbent on a mission to rescue her father, Algen; a young boy descended from a race of amphibian mutants poised on the brink of war, and many others. Their only commonality? Their fates and that of the universe are intertwined with that of the Starscape. Deals will be struck, wars will be fought, and allies made and broken; but will the real reason for demise be discovered before it is too late? And what must be sacrificed in pursuit of that truth? Starcharter: Protostar is Evan Chaika's first entry into a series of fantasy novels following the journeys and tribulations of several influential characters in the fantasy universe known as Starscape. A collection of many plot lines, Starcharter follows eight individuals varying from a wayward king, to the prince of an underground kingdom, to a race of amphibian warmongers. The Starscape is in turmoil as many of its worlds are rapidly becoming barren for reasons that are uncertain to its inhabitants. Deals are being struck, sides are being taken, and wars are being fought. Some of the characters you will meet are ready for the coming storm, others are trying to avoid it, and some may find themselves with a greater purpose...

Biographie:
Evan Chaika is an author and musician, born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada as the only child of parents Darin and Leanne. Evan began writing stories at the age of five, by telling his mother about the adventures of an anthropomorphic mouse as she wrote them down into little books. Starcharter is the first of many novels Evan intends to publish, ranging in genre from fantasy, to documentary, to perhaps a mixture of both. One of his main sources of inspiration is looking towards the night sky and wondering what could lay beyond what the naked eye can see; making Starcharter the natural introduction into a long career in writing.
