Where do I start?

The Kingdom of Lothere is an enormous work, twice the size of the Bible or several times War and Peace. However, dozens of people have read it from start to the ever-advancing finish, some more than once. If you want to begin at the beginning, start here:

“The Prologue”

If you only want to taste a sample, start in the Storylines Section. There, I have pulled together chapters from some of the individual storylines that run through the larger work.

Each storyline is self-contained and can be read without any prior background. Brief notes summarize important information about events happening elsewhere.

Here are a few recommended storylines, but there are many more.

“Red Boots” Quick, romantic, and fun, with a tragic twist and a happy ending.

“A Love Story” Lots of romance, lots of drama. (Ongoing.)

“Storm on the Irish Sea” Politics, treachery, piracy, and war in the Celtic world surrounding Lothere. (Ongoing.)

“A Tangled Braid” Novel-length in itself, one of the premiere long-running storylines of Lothere. The story’s thorniest human/elf/elf love triangle. (Ongoing.)

The Historical Context

If you are interested in the historical context of the story, you can begin by reading “The History of the Hwalas”, which summarizes the previous seventy years’ history of England as well as some background on the Anglo-Saxon noble families involved in the story. It is not required reading, however.
