Crystal Shade - Preview Article #01

[Freelancer]

Thousands of stars could tell thousands of stories... and eleven articles could tell eleven short stories. From here on, once a week, along with this article you’re going to get eleven articles that connect to the world of Crystal Shade. In many cases writers are telling in the marketing who the characters of the story are and what will await you in the book that hopefully you’re going to read. We won’t do that as writers and storytellers shouldn’t strip any of you, dear readers from the sense of exploration with any sort of spoilers. So in these articles we will tell spoiler free elements about this book, mostly of its development and background, and there will be at least one surprise article as well that we hope you’re going to like. But first as we love to follow our good manners we’d like to introduce our world to all new friends who hopefully will join us and follow Crystal Shade. So this article is about the necessary introduction, which is setting up the very-very basics of Crystal Shade, but as we promise spoiler free presentations, we keep most of the surprises for the novel itself.

Crystal Shade: Angeni is the first in the trilogy set in the rich and detailed Crystal Shade universe created by Istvan Szabo, Ifj, written by Istvan Szabo, Ifj. and Orlanda Szabo. It is about the life of a young, daydreaming soul, the seven-year-old Grace who always dreamt of becoming a guardian angel; like those who guarded and guided her people and prepared to bravely fight in a dreaded mythical event, the Crystal Shade – which never came. It's not like Grace ever wanted to see Demons. Or wants to know what evil and darkness is – things that no one ever knew on her world and as the legends says, the Crystal Shade carries within –, nor does she want to die to be reborn as a guardian. But she thinks the mysterious life of angels is so noble a fable that it sounds exciting – until it actually happens.

In Crystal Shade: Angeni, we’re inviting the reader to live the life of a young soul who is reborn as a mature Guardian Angel. We’d like it if the readers would discover a strange home world and its secrets along with her. Evolve with the character, understand her motives, her thoughts and foremost her decisions, even her darkest hours as she tries to learn the reality of the mythical Crystal Shade event. It’s a story about a soul who loves to dream, just like everyone else. But just as the crystal has its own shadow, sometimes-restless dreams and revealed secrets can insinuate darkness into life and the world itself.

The first volume explores the early life of a young daydreaming soul who is destined to reveal the forgotten past of her home world and to seek the answer for the eternal question; what the legendary Crystal Shade really is.

Basically this is what Crystal Shade is all about; a story about the life of a daydreaming soul whose life hopefully may go unnoticed and will be liked or loved by you, the readers, just as we loved to write it. In the second longer article we will include a few things about the characters of Crystal Shade. As we don’t want to spoil anything, we won’t tell who they are or what their roll is in the story. We will let the Crystal Shade trilogy do this instead of us. We’d rather tell you what philosophies led us during their creation to make Crystal Shade into a hopefully unique reading experience.

We welcome our new and old friend alike and we thank you for following Crystal Shade.

The first volume of Crystal Shade: Angeni will be available on November 11, 2011 via Smashwords, Amazon Kindle and other electronic platforms. Volume 2 and 3 will be available in 2012.
