About the Author Joel Eisenberg has been interested in the mechanics behind artistic creation, an ongoing theme of the Chronicles of Ara series, since he penned the non-fiction How to Survive a Day Job in 2004. Interviewing 70+ professional creatives, including celebrities from several artistic industries, he credits his “mentor in a box” tome with hastening the realization of his dad’s inspiring words from forty years ago. Writing a novel with similar objectives, much less a series, has been on his bucket list since. Professionally, Joel has worked primarily in the movie and television industries as a writer and producer. The film he is most proud of, April Showers, which he executive produced, was based on the Columbine school shooting tragedy. He is a former Special Education teacher and supports school safety causes. Joel lives with the only woman in the world who could put up with him, his wife, Lorie, and their rescue dog (repeating a not-so-subtle message there), Koko, in Los Angeles, California. Stephen Hillard grew up in Bossier City, Louisiana, and Grand Junction, Colorado. He graduated from Colorado State University, and also earned a degree in Philosophy at Columbia University and a Juris Doctorate from the University of Colorado. Before settling into his current career as a private equity entrepreneur, Steve was a teacher at Rikers Island Prison, a welder, a carpenter, and a practicing litigation attorney. He is the founder of Council Tree Investors, a private equity fund involved in the entertainment and telecom industries. Steve has also been an active philanthropist, focusing primarily on higher education, as well as at-risk Latino and indigenous youth, at the Escuela Tlatelolco in Denver, Colorado. In 2011, Steve published Mirkwood: A Novel About JRR Tolkien, which sparked international controversy, became an Amazon Best Seller, received a national prize and was subsequently published world-wide in Spanish by Grupo Planeta. In addition to collaborative efforts with his partner, Joel Eisenberg, on the Chronicles of Ara, Steve is developing other projects. These include an untitled prequel to Mirkwood; Farway Canyon, a retro-horror graphic novel about radiation, blobs, and (of course) Cold War zombies, and KNOLL, a novel about JFK, Carlos Marcello, Elvis, the NSA, and Edward Snowden. He resides with his wife, Sharmaine, in San Antonio, Texas. Joel and Steve can be contacted directly through their author page, www.eisenbergandhillard.com

I attended co-author Eisenberg's recent signing in Pasadena; I was shopping, liked the cover of the book and purchased it on an impulse. What Eisenberg and Hillard have done is to get us to rethink the nature of the artistic impulse. To get there, they feature J.R.R. Tolkien, who is asked to authenticate the "legendary" missing book of "Beowulf", and Lewis Carroll, who appears prominently in the book's second act. Some things, though, are clearly best left "lost." There is a host of dragons and dragonslayers, gods and godesses, lost worlds, end of the world scenarios and various other mythologies to satisfy any fantasist. But what makes this book different, what makes it work on multiple levels, is not only the clever incorporation of some of the world's darker authors (who, as it's said, tended to troll the darker sides of human nature and are the ones who knew and were able to present The Truth to the masses; promised in future volumes are Mary Shelley, Lovecraft, Poe, Shakespeare, Dante and more) and the muse of their creative inspiration, it's the concept of what happens when this muse becomes corrupted. Then all of mankind's art would be corrupted and what then? Nothing is spared, not the Bible or any holy book, which is considered "literature" here. The power of the word - the spark - is tantamount. "The Chronicles of Ara" is extremely well-written and thought-provoking, which all adds to its impact. This is actually my first review here. That's how moved I was.Mysterious charaacters abound: Who is X? Ara, restless spirits who return to earth called called over-dwellers ... and who knew Tolkien did not invent the world of "Mirkwood"?If ever a book or a series needs to be discovered, it's this one. The first post-modern historic fantasy? Maybe.
4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Paints an insanely intricate picture of altered histories and fictional what ifs By Andrew First and foremost, this book (as well as the rest of the eight-volume series) is an extremely ambitious project. In a literary landscape littered with rehashed fantasy fails, copied and pasted sci-fi silliness, and more fan fiction attempts than honest swings at original content, The Chronicles of Ara: Creation paints an insanely intricate picture of altered histories and fictional what ifs. It’s dense and daring, but more importantly it’s the kind of intriguing and entertaining prose that I haven’t come across in a while. That alone makes it worth the read.
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. what happened here? By Amazon Customer I really thought I was going to love this book. In fact, it started out as something so perfectly designed for me, that I almost felt like I was and had always been under the influence of the muse of the tale. Then the book fragmented into a rather incoherent mishmash of gobbledeegook... And then it just ended, leaving me wondering what in the hell I'd just read. (Also, this book is in serious need of a copy editor.)
