About the Author

Clyde Davis continues to develop his appetites for literature - exploring both literary fiction and fantasy - and has found the attraction in both. As a writer, he swings between both genres, often looking for the point where they meet. His writing combines the realism of fiction with the magical elements of fantasy, lending aspects from one genre to give a unique impression on the other. With this as his core principle, Clyde refuses to isolate himself to any genre. He enjoys inhabiting both worlds, and is a firm believer that a writer can move between realms, pursuing inspiration as it comes. According to Clyde, the process of creation is intrinsic to the human condition, no matter the complexity or form. Whether it's a conversation or a novel, we are all born with the ability to tell tales and be creative. It is only in the way that it is told that makes us different. Clyde's works are eclectic and varied and he strives to offer his readers tales from every corner of his creativity.
