Michael Stephen Somerville is a storyteller who aspires to tell stories of hope. His stories are set in the Broken Realm - in a world of broken beauty.
As one who has lived for over forty years in such a world, he is writing "fireside tales" for his own children and for all those who are looking forward to a time when all things will be healed and made new.
Along the way, he brings his worlds to life by creating artwork and artifacts, songs and sculptures, models and maps - and he loves all of it!
Michael is writing The Tales of the Broken Realm. This fantasy series blends elemental magic with honest character growth in the setting of an original world.
In Peria - The Broken Realm - our heroes must journey to discover the truth about the dark forces that seek to control them. Ultimately, they must face the truth about themselves before they can find their way out of lies and into the light.
These are stories of hope. Good triumphs over evil. Despite loss and danger, the light does overcome the darkness, for The Broken Realm is healing -- but it's not healed yet.
