Hi, everyone, and welcome to The Oneiron Saga,

Strange Aeons is the first book of a prosperous saga that counts at least three books, but I - and my amazing writing group - have the story and the material to produce at least nine (and we often fantasize about spin-offs with our favorite and underused characters - one spin-off will be surely written as a bridge between the second and the third trilogy, though).

The first three books are, however, ready. Just the third, Battle Choir, is undergoing heavy revision, but it's ultimately finished, it just needs that extra polishing.

But let's talk about Strange Aeons.

We wrote this book because of our characters. As it often happens, they were born during a dramatically fateful Mage: The Awakening RPG campaign. From that campaign stemmed the world and the future three campaigns we played and, especially in the second campaign, it meant we became the sort of friends that drop unannounced at your home and know your fridge by heart, when we started out as basically strangers, as the campaign became less and less a World of Darkness campaign and more and more "our" world, "our" cosmology, "our" universe.

So, Strange Aeons is much more than the beginning of an Urban-Fantasy Humour-bound saga: it's the background of the beginning of a friendship nobody of us expected. Just like none of our characters ever expects to form certain bonds, or to find certain people who become important in their lives. Which is just one of the many messages we hope we could pass to you through them.

And we hope you'll come to love our characters and their extremely disheveled lives, as much as we loved giving them life, means and purpouses to live and overcome everything we mercilessly threw at them.

And alcohol, lots of alcohol. And feels. So many feels.

Thank you all, and have a great time, and, yet again, welcome to our world.

Daniel McFate
