On first glance, Denzel&#8217;s trilogy appears to be in the classic &#8217;80s mould of epic fantasy that will be sure to appeal to fans of Jordan, Katharine Kerr, and Terry Brooks, or more contemporary authors like Brent Weeks and Kate Elliott.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the early rundown:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\nThe Mystic trilogy will tell the story of Pomella, a restless teenager who leaves her village to apprentice herself to a mysterious Mystic \u2013 even though the law forbids it. After lying about her caste, she must undergo severe trials against nobles to prove her worthiness. Far more dangerous, however, is the conspiracy she finds: someone is plotting to murder her and the Mystic!\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>As founder of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dragonmount.com\/index.php\">Dragonmount<\/a>, the largest Wheel of Time fansite on the Internet, Denzel has had a long professional relationship with Tor Books via Robert Jordan&#8217;s long-running series.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Having the opportunity to publish my stories through Tor is a dream come true,&#8221; Denzel told Tor.com.  &#8220;For over a decade I&#8217;ve had the pleasure of frequently collaborating with their team to celebrate Robert Jordan&#8217;s Wheel of Time series. Now, thanks to the trust they\u2019ve shown me, I get to tell my stories in my own style and voice. I look forward to sharing the Mystic trilogy with everyone, and getting the chance to connect with new fans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first volume of the trilogy, <em>Mystic<\/em>, will be released on November 3rd, 2015. It followed by the remaining volumes, <em>Mystic Dragon<\/em> and <em>Mystic Skies<\/em>, at a later date. The cover art for the trilogy will be illustrated by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rostant.com\/portfolio.html\">Larry Rostant<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tor.com announced today the upcoming release of the Mystic trilogy by Jason Denzel, longtime Robert Jordan fan and found of Wheel of Time megasite Dragonmount.
