A Final e-Pologue

All good things must come to an end, so they say. And so they do. I am both excited and strangely saddened to have published the third and final book in The Keeper Chronicles. It is an odd thing, to say goodbye to characters, places, indeed entire cultures that have been stewing in my brain for the past two years. They have been my constant companions, but no more. Now they are yours and I wish you well with them! But it appears that some of us - I won't name names - are not yet ready to be finished with this series. Whether in response to the urging of my readers or in an unspoken inability to let go (honestly a bit of both), I have not given up on Tranthaea quite yet. Instead, I've created a bit of new content that will be available exclusively online to allow readers to delve a little deeper into the fantasy world that I know and love. Enter The Keeper Chronicles: The e-ppendices. These features include a map of Tranthaea, a glossary of the terms, people, places, and things you need to know, and an interactive timeline to fill you in on some of the history of this fantastical world. I hope you enjoy exploring a little further into Tranthaea, and that you enjoy reading the complete trilogy!
