Tales of Non: Book 1

The Chronicle of Iam

Tales of Non: The Chronicle of Iam is a rich and enveloping tale exploring the wonders of the fictional world of Non through the eyes of two unlikely heroes -- Iam, a sheep, and Phillip, a young man, both in search of self and belonging. Together with their comrades and armed with diamond swords, Phillip and Iam work together to free their friend Sam from the clutches of a mystic villain, whose dark origin and allegiance to the Hadean underbelly of the realm prove to be more than any of them anticipated.

Iam’s journey to find out who he truly is and where he belongs intermingles with Phillip’s story, as the boy searches for the long-lost heirloom of his great-grandfather, Carpantheous. The mysterious Dark One plays his hand in the fate of Non’s future, relentlessly searching for Iam while old foes and ghosts from Phillip’s past come crashing down in dragon form. Together, he and his new-found friend are led to the unexpectedly sorrowful yet undeniably sublimeconclusion to both of their origin stories.

Facing hard truths, such as the sources and meaning of evil in the world, as well as incorporating theological elements from Christianity, Judaism, Greek Mythology, and Native American spirituality, The Chronicle of Iam brings fantasy and adventure to life in a way that is reminiscent of the classics.
