Michael Wisehart was born and raised in Southwestern Ohio. He published The White Tower in 2016, the first book of The Aldoran Chronicles series, an epic fantasy saga. In parallel with the latter, he is currently working on another series titled Street Rats of Aramoor. Michael started writing his first lines in 2014, and he doesn’t seem to be likely to run dry of inspiration.

Michael Wisehart grew up in a rural community in Southwestern Ohio where he spent most of his time running through the woods and streams and cornfields with his siblings and friends. When he was sixteen, his family moved to South Georgia, where he currently lives. He first graduated with a bachelor’s degree in business. Then he went back to school for film and started his own production company. While enjoying filmwork, he realized that he had developed more than a taste for writing: a passion. One morning, as he had only just got out of bed, he felt a call, a sudden urge for writing. It was April 14, 2014. He rushed to his typewriter and began to type the first words of what would be two new epic fantasy series: The Aldoran Chronicles and Street Rats of Aramoor.

The White Tower is the first book of The Aldoran Chronicles series, an epic fantasy published in October 2016.

Synopsis:

Following the devastation of the Great Wizard Wars, the land of Aldor turned its back on magic. For a thousand years the Jun’ri have ruled and the Ven’ae have maintained their silent place within the shadows of society. Those unfortunate enough to be born with magic struggle every day to remain unseen. However, the winds of change are beginning to shift.

At sixteen, TY knows that he’s different. The arrival of the Black Watch in Easthaven precipitates a secret that threatens not only his life but the lives of everyone around him. LYESSA, fierce daughter and only heir of Overlord Barl, has a secret of her own. Her skill with the sword will either prove the means of Ty’s salvation or the end of everything they hold dear?

No prisoner has ever escaped the White Tower. FERRIN is determined to be the first. The long-awaited capture of the famous weapon-smith who earned a commission from the High King has left the Tower in a state of eager anticipation. Despite being tortured at the hands of a sadistic inquisitor, Ferrin is no closer to breaking, and seems destined for the Chamber of Purging if he continues to withhold his help in creating magic-infused weapons for the Tower’s growing army.

VALTOR, Arch Chancellor of the White Tower and advisor to the High Prince, will stop at nothing to ensure his victory in what he believes will be an epic battle between those with magic and those without. No wielder, witch, or wizard will stand in his way.

As Guardian Protector to the High King, AYRION is no stranger to battle. Amidst treachery from within the walls of the palace, the threat of war from Cylmar, and the reappearance of dark mythical creatures, the former Upakan street rat has no choice but to unleash his twin blades in defense of his king, or die trying.

KIRA, the ruthless clan leader known as Red is determined to claw her way to the top of the notorious Warren Underground. Her decision to do whatever it takes to remain as head of the clans proves difficult with the sudden arrival of an old flame.

THE WHITE TOWER is the first installment in The Aldoran Chronicles, an epic fantasy saga about a world struggling with the use of magic. The pages of this book are filled with some of the best the genre has to offer: magic and monsters, sword and sorcery, heroes, villains, and those in between.
