Stories from Terragrand

Hello, I am Brian Petsel, author of Stories From Terragrand.
Have you ever read a book and then watched a film based on that book? Did the big-screen version fall short of your expectations? That is because a truly great book paints a movie in your mind to which no motion picture can do justice.
Over twenty-two years ago, I had an idea for a story. I began writing Stories From Terragrand with a desire to create one of those truly great books. I also wanted to create a new world of majesty, mystery, and intrigue. I hope my efforts have achieved those goals and created an enjoyable novel, but that is for others to determine.
It has been a long and winding road, but on December 31, 2023, I finally published the e-books that comprise Stories From Terragrand. For ease of reading, I broke this single novel into seven volumes. Eventually, I wish to release the story in hardback (with the color photos from the e-books), paperback, and audiobooks.
I would have never made it to this point without the generous support and encouragement I received from my wonderful cousin, Sandy Black Wolf. For many years now, she has edited the books and given me helpful feedback to improve all aspects of the work.
Stories From Terragrand is a heartwarming story of epic events on an unexplored planet in the New Bang. Far distant from the Big Bang, planets there need a circumference of ten million miles to have the same gravitational value as Earth. With the advent of Time Constancy, plants, animals, and humans migrate from the Big Bang to the New Bang over millions of years.
Terragrand is the name of the planet that sets the stage for the odyssey. Over one hundred thousand continents grace its vast surface. Some continents cover more land area than the entire surface of planet Earth. As with Earth's mere seven continents, life forms on each continent vary widely. On Terragrand's seemingly endless land masses, the variations grow far more extreme.
This set of stories takes place in the earliest period of human habitation on the planet. The settlements have a colonial flavor of old-world charm. Some technological advancements endure among the struggling populations but very few. The pages introduce memorable heroines, heroes, villains, and uniquely evolved creatures. Danger lurks on every new continent. The chapters may seem unrelated at first but eventually intertwine.
Great stories need great endings, so I did my best to deliver. I decided to end the story in a way that answers minor mysteries that develop in earlier chapters. The final chapter would mean little to anyone not intimately familiar with the story's characters and events. For those invested, I hope that the closing will evoke a satisfied feeling of fulfillment.
The largest hurdle for a novel to overcome for wide acceptance is captivating a handful of initial readers. If the pages stimulate their imaginations, those pioneering individuals will spread the word. The best part about being among the first readers is that every twist in the story comes as a complete surprise. Nobody spoils details by talking about them before others have a chance to read the books. Therefore, I invite you to become one of those adventurous souls and embark on the journey of a lifetime. Please, give this unknown writer a chance and enjoy these Stories From Terragrand.
Thank you for taking the time to read this narrative. I hope that you will consider reading the seven volumes that have consumed two decades of my lifetime in creating.
Yours truly,
Brian Petsel, USN, Retired
