Phantammeron Book One

Mystery, romance, tragedy, and treachery abound in the rich mytho-poetic fantasy world of the Phantammeron. Phantammeron means "Book of the Forest" and is named for Phantaia, the mysterious Forest of Twilight where the One Tree and the Sacred Pool lie hidden.
In Book One of the Phantammeron, a new world is created by the Essence Eternal for his children, the Primordial Ones. But their savage conflicts soon destroy the world he had made. Those that survive must confront the sad fate of their world and the horrors of the Emptiness and Nothingness sent to doom them. But a mystical tree in the haunted forests of Phantaia and the strange waters of a cursed pool will lead them to a greater truth.
All of the books in the Phantammeron series will cover the mythical history of the children of Phantaia, whose creation and conflict revolves around the enchanted waters of an ancient pool. The global struggle surrounding the pool and the redemption of the characters tragically affected by it is the main theme in the series.
