by Mike DeAngelo on December 19, 2024

Greetings travelers!  Those of you who have been spending a lot of time with us might recall the work of J.A Bergloff, who we worked with back in September of last year.  It was then that he introduced us to the kingdom of Atlen,  Since then, he’s expanded and improved on his literary universe, and we’re excited to take another look at the spectacle and the grandeur.  Stick around to learn more about The Chronicles of Atlen: The Butcher of the Eternal Forest (Author’s Expanded Edition).

Spending time in J.A Bergloff’s kingdom of Atlen is a great way to be immersed in a rich fantasy world that feels lived in and layered.  In the author’s debut, The Chronicles of Atlen: The Butcher of the Eternal Forest, now retconned to serve as the second book in the series, readers were treated to deep and resonating history and mythology, making it feel like Atlen was discovered by devout archaeologists, and not spun out from the aether and one talented storyteller’s mind.  This new expanded edition allows an already impressive part of Bergloff’s tapestry to spread its fiery wings and take to the skies.

Dive into an epic tale of power, peril, and mystery in The Chronicles of Atlen: The Butcher of the Eternal Forest. The mighty kingdom of Atlen, a realm blessed with divine power and guided by the gods, stands at the brink of annihilation. A shadowy enemy, relentless and unknown, has begun its siege, plunging the kingdom into chaos. Entire battalions falter, cities sway under the threat of invasion, and panic spreads like wildfire.

But the kingdom’s woes are far from over. People across Atlen have been vanishing without a trace, leaving shattered families and unanswered questions. Desperate for salvation, many have turned to the mystical Nymphs for aid, but the Eternal Forest—their sacred domain—has fallen silent. Whispers now speak of something malicious, an ominous force prowling the dark woods, claiming all who dare enter.

As a gathering storm of secrets and violence looms overhead, Atlen teeters on the razor’s edge between salvation and despair. Will the kingdom’s divine power prevail, or will the gods’ chosen land succumb to the growing darkness? This revised edition features expanded lore, untold truths, and the thrilling bonus novella, Rise of Hakon, plunging readers even deeper into the perilous and enchanting world of Atlen. Prepare yourself for an unforgettable literary adventure where every choice could mean life or destruction.

The Butcher of the Eternal Forest was already a formidable release, boasting an epic storyline and plenty of room to explore.  But Bergloff’s new release of the tale, bundled with a bonus novella in The Rise of Hakon, really adds tremendous value to this portion of the chronicles.  Throughout all of the author’s works, you really feel the passion coming through.  This is someone that bleeds creativity for the genre, and wants nothing more than to deliver something spectacular for their readers.  The great news is that there’s now an even better way to experience it all.  Check out The Chronicles of Atlen: The Butcher of the Eternal Forest (Author’s Expanded Edition) on Amazon today!

Note: For the sake of transparency, I want readers to know that I was the editor for the novella bonus of this book.  I was already a big fan of the series, but when the author invited me into the world in a bigger way than ever, I felt transported.  I’m looking forward to see more people take the journey into Atlen, and the greater universe surrounding it.  Don’t wait to get this fantastic book, and the book that precedes it!
