Tink a mentor, a craftsman of cutlery and pots and pans by day and in the evenings he instructs the much ridiculed Tranquilblade. I mean, who wants to learn how to sword fight when the Tanis Shayth that fires plasma or the Shonith Shayth spits a plethora of chemical or solid shot is at hand? Anyway, isn’t it for meditation or somfink?

First of all thank you very much for helping me, I am looking forward to having my book published one way or another. There is a lot to offer in the book, not just a story but also a 'how to'. Using the story as a way to play lets pretend may be enough for a person to want to practise the physical arts represented in the story.
Over the next few weeks I’ll explain the concept of the book. The story itself stands alone as it unfolds around the lives of individuals that are thrust into motion by fear motivated by loss. And like a stone cast into a pond the inevitable ripples spread out across the empire. For more information regarding the Blades of Torqueadia and what motivated the story, please visit: www.torqueblade.com. For those of you who have already visited, well, you're a head of the game.
I believe that my story is unique as it crosses genres; it uses the genre of fiction to inspire folks (if they wish), to utilize the activities that define characters in the blades of Torqueadia. The book crosses from the realm of mental acuity and emotion into the physical of the exercise prescriptions.
