Book 1: The Man With the Stone
I started writing this book with a specific audience in mind: the
young reader. The first line of the book, “Edwin Krollup was the
richest man in town, perhaps in the country,” conjures up the
simplicity of straightforwardness and the grandiosity or hyperbole
of children’s fiction. That’s exactly what I was going for: this was
supposed to be read in the same manner of gothic imagism you find in
children’s movies where the adult perspective is always dark, and
brightness only comes from the young.
