Opening volume of the series "Echoes of Felorn". Substantial entry point with a self-contained arc; Volume II is in progress.

Calvin Klein writes the kind of fantasy he wants to read himself: adult, political, uncomfortable.

What interests him are the spaces between the battles. Alliances built on lies. People who ruin each other with a smile and have good reasons for it. Decisions with no clean answer, only the question of who carries the cost. In his stories it is rarely settled who is in the right. Usually the only thing settled is that someone will pay.

He expects the same from fantasy and science fiction: that an invented world is taken seriously enough to have rules of its own, and that it does not explain what the reader can work out alone. Those who read between the lines will find more there than in what is said. Those who expect every turn to be announced in advance are in the wrong place.

"Heirs of Decay" is his debut novel and the opening of the series "Echoes of Felorn". He designed the cover himself. Volume II is in progress.
