A Little About TALON:
They call him Plagueborn…On the frozen Barbarian island of Volnoss, survival means strength. Those who do not meet the measure are declared Skomm, and condemned to a life of slavery.
They call him Throwback…Born two months premature during the Frozen Plague, raised by his grandmother, and rejected by his father, he is allowed to live among the mighty Vald until the day of his measure. A day fast approaching.
They call him Skomm…He must somehow survive a cold world of giants, and a twisted culture of discrimination, cruelty, and injustice. Despised for his size and weakness, shunned by his peers, and beaten by bullies, he knows no friend but a timber wolf pup named Chief.
They call him by many names…Legend will call him TALON WINDWALKER.
About the Author:
Michael was unsuccessfully taught how to sit down, shut up, get in line, and raise his hand to pee, so he quit school the first day of his senior year of high school. Along with his band members and girlfriend, Michael took a greyhound bus to California, something he had always dreamed of doing. After nine months and many crazy experiences and soup kitchens later, he and his girlfriend returned to NY with a baby on the way. Three years later the family grew with the addition of a baby girl. Michael spent 14 years at a Casino being the best poker dealer in NY, and later as the best boss in the world. He has recently quit his day job to focus on writing full-time.
Above all else, Michael enjoys beating the odds.
