Local Author Publishes First Book
Posted by: Steven Oliverez ()
Date: July 04, 2005 04:43PM

My name is Steven Oliverez and I've spent the past 24 years in Fairfax and Loudoun Counties. I grew up in the Herndon/Reston area and recently moved to Ashburn.

This past month I published a fantasy novel titled "The Elder Staves," which is now available on amazon.com and bn.com (as well as several other online retailers)

The Elder Staves is a sci-fi/fantasy adventure set in a world of magic and skyscrapers where technology and magic exist together in an escalating struggle for dominance. The Mage-Elders of the city of Tyr are faced with an industrial revolution that is crippling their power and prompting open rebellion. When two young nobles become entangled in a plot to overthrow the Elders, they learn that their efforts to survive through the night will be useless if they cannot stop the destruction of the city at the hands of a haunting, malevolent presence from Tyr's mystical past.

If you're interested in reading a book by a local author, go check out. The first chapter is available at www.stevenoliverez.com

I've scanned bookshelves at the local libraries and the local bookstores, and haven't seen the book. Can it be found locally? Or do i have to buy it online?

Good Job Steven, I'll need to pick it up some day and give it a read.

I found it here on Amazon, and the reviews are good...
