Hello, I am Anna del C., the author of The Silent Warrior Trilogy, |
 |
| |
|
a tale from medieval times full of courage, grief, love and war. Thank |
|
| |
|
you for visiting my official Web site. Welcome! |
|
| |
|
"How did it all start?" you ask. |
|
| |
|
Well, it began with my son urging me to read Tolkien's masterpiece, |
|
| |
|
The Lord of the Rings. He was reading it, and would come to me and |
|
| |
|
insist, "Mom, just read this part." Yup, you guessed it, I was hooked. |
|
| |
|
When the movies came out, I could not believe the great job they did. |
|
| |
|
It was everything I had imagined... even the actors who portrayed the |
|
| |
|
characters were perfect. But once they were over, I found myself |
|
| |
|
hungry for more... |
|
| |
|
Was there any more to the characters' lives? When they returned |
|
| |
|
home, who waited for them? What was it like to be an elf or a dwarf? |
|
| |
|
My mind took me to my favorite character, Legolas. What would his |
|
| |
|
family be like? What kinds of principles did elfs hold dear? How |
|
| |
|
would elfs be better than mankind? Would Legolas ever find a woman |
|
| |
|
to love? What would she be like? |
|
| |
|
One day I started to answer this question, and was fascinated by the |
|
| |
|
elven race that Tolkien had created. I related to my husband the tale I |
|
| |
|
had woven, and he said, "Write it!" I answered, "I do not know how." |
|
| |
|
He left the room, and return shortly with a laptop. He showed me |
|
| |
|
how to open the word processor, and said to me, "Start here." Thus, I |
|
| |
|
continued to give life to this awesome people on every page of my |
|
| |
|
book. |
|
| |
|
And that is how Dellin, inspired by Legolas, met Adren in The Elf |
|
| |
|
and The Princess , book one of The Silent Warrior Trilogy . |
|
| |
|
I hope you like it as much as I do... |
