About the Book

At birth Attila was saddled with a name he could never live up to. At age 7 he was forced into a body he could never excel in. At age 14 he chose to commit actions he could never atone for. Unfortunately, much like his namesake, the rules and expectations of others weren't something he gave much attention to. Unfortunately for those others who wanted to force them on him that is. Especially since at age 21, he got the ultimate "reset". If only he can find the "On button" for all his new abilities.
About the Author: Michael Eves Shaffer was born on April 1st at one in the morning. Whether the birthday shaped him or he chose that date to represent his life, only the divine really knows. His tastes have always been extremely eclectic as well as his career paths. From his first job before he got out of high school as a dishwasher, he went into the Army to become a turbine engine mechanic. After four years, he got out and joined an Army Reserve Military Police unit. Which immediately deployed for Desert Storm. After that adventure, he tried something a little different and worked as a bookkeeper for an accounting firm. Where he traced a one cent mis-balance back to a $10,000 "irregularity". But adventure still interested him, so he rejoined the Army to become a Calvary Scout. Which basically meant he trained to go behind enemy lines to observe what they were doing. While stationed in Baumholder, Germany, as part of the 4/12 Infantry Brigade, he was deployed to Bosnia as part of the NATO effort to fix what the UN had screwed up. After his time there, he moved fully into civilian life, doing a number of different things before he settled into software engineering. Currently he lives in Youngstown, Ohio, with three cats (Scooter, Tanjay, and Isbit) and an Anatolian Shephard (Fafhrd). He had always been into fantasy and science fiction, a very avid reader since before he got into school. In October of 2014 he finally decided to put together the pieces and parts that had been running through his head. In April of 2015, he published his first book, Firing of the Crucible. His second book followed in June of the 2016, Forging of the Blade. Part of the delay was he had decided that he wanted to add illustrations. After going through a number of artists who said they wanted to be part of the project, he tried his hand at art. Forging shows his first attempts and a month after the released Forging, he re-released Firing with added artwork. He has also released a side-series, Attila the Runner, which is going to be a series of novella length stories about what is going on back on Earth during the time of the other books. His inspiration for these books was the question "what if everyone was right?" As in, what if everyone got a little piece of what actually happened right. Only interpreted it as they could with the level of technology they had at the time. Facebook: Michael Eves Shaffer Twitter: Pelen_Tan Instagram: Pelen_Tan Youtube: PelenTan
