Signup to be notified when our first Visionary Creation Kickstarter goes LIVE!
As we grow close to the June 1, 2023 launch date for our Visionary Creation Phase 1 Kickstarter Bundle, we figured it was about time to give everyone a complete list of the 19 Epic Tales included in this massive collection we’ll be offering at a great price!
All stories and art, unless otherwise noted, are by C. Edward Sellner.
Our core book is our Visions Serialized Collection – this unique, 100K word ongoing prose anthology series will feature several stories in each volume, half of them will be serialized ongoing novels, half stand-alone novellas, and short stories. Each story will be set in the Visionary Creation, and various threads will tie many of the stories in each volume together into a larger whole.
Visions Volume 1 contains:
Genesis: The Books of Creation
A modern re-imagining of the epic poem, Paradise Lost, by John Milton! An epic tale of the very beginning of all creation told in a cosmic fantasy style similar to JRR Tolkien’s Silmarillion, Jack Kirby’s New Gods and Eternals, and with the cutting edge of George RR Martin’s Game of Thrones. This chapter opens during the final Judgement Day and then flashes back to tell the tale of how everything began, including the first darkening of the angel Lucifer!
