After his first book was released,(Medieval: The Book of Loss) he took time off to hone his skills and focus on continuing his story and setting. He released Medieval: Book of War a few years later. And now, the third installment, Medieval: Book of Blood is here. “I took time off to focus on finalizing my world and its origins. Runethedian, the pantheon from which the Medieval series initially takes place was finished before I ever began my series but I have three additional pantheons I had to finish for future stories. I never stopped writing. I would work on my setting and then my stories. I knew I wanted books two and three to come out relatively close together. I’m actually finished with the series’ fourth novel as it stands.
His passion for the ancient times and Fantasy, albeit it Dark or High Fantasy stems back from his childhood roots. He couldn’t wait to get home from football and/or wrestling practice to work on games he had such as dungeons and dragons, Dragonstrike or Heroquest. His creativity started early. His mother remembers him getting into these games around the age of nine.
Since the release of his first novel, he’s continued his career in mixed martial arts/combat sports as both competitor and coach. He’s actively part of Team Hoger, Paradigm Training Center, Fight Lab, and Rilion Gracie’s Jiu Jit Su and MMA school. “I was in it long before it was cool.” He says.
He also admits to being an avid Tabletop Gamer with the majority of his games taking place in the same world he writes in, Thedia. “I’ve had help with its development. It was a real honor when other people asked me for information on my world because they wanted to use it as a setting for their own games.” Dallas hopes to create a collection of different series that take place all over his world. He hopes to explore Nevermore relatively soon. He says he is also working on a collection of short stories that will take place in all four pantheons: Runethedian, Nevermore, Alecrast and Corvana.
Dungeons and Dragons was an out for him, he was the only athlete he remembers playing such games. “I had two groups of friends growing up” he said, “and I loved them both.”показать меньше
