NATURE'S MARC

Unleash the Primordial Power of Nature!

Imagine meeting someone who embodies the raw, mystical force of Nature itself. Marc is that someone – an ageless wanderer whose mere presence channels the primordial rhythms, gifted with dominion over animals, plant life, and elemental forces.

Caught between the modern world and the primal universe he embodies, Marc must fully embrace his true destiny as Nature’s environmental warrior to protect the future of the very essence he personifies. With steadfast allies by his side, Marc faces an epic battle between nature’s magic and dark ambitions.

Brace for a spellbinding, serpentine adventure that fuses the fundamental powers of Nature with courage, laughter, and unbreakable bonds of friendship. Prepare for a cataclysmic climax that defies imagination and rewrites the stakes of this fight for the very soul of life as we know it.

Dive into “Nature’s Marc” today and join the battle to protect our world’s soul!

About The Book

This book is about an environmental warrior, a boy who is a product of Nature, placed upon the Earth to protect life and the environment. The main character, Marc, is a very down-to-earth figure with hidden mystical powers that he uses to fight the dark forces which exists all around us, and often deep within us. As the story evolves, feel yourself drawn into a world of magical adventures, dark forces, and adventure. Feel the friendship deepen between the boys and laugh as their sense of humour shines through even the darkest moments. 

As an author, I’ve combined the storyline around supernatural powers that exist around us, the issues that face our environment, friendship and dark forces that threaten every one of us. This is a twist on the classic good vs evil fantasy adventure introducing a new Earth guardian. I’ve purposefully created the story and characters in a more real-world scenario instead of the normal wizardry style so that readers will be able to relate to more. Set in the English countryside that has thousands of years of history, you’ll find yoruself drawn into Nature defending itself.

So take a seat on this roller-coaster ride as the forces of Nature battle to protect the Earth in this variation of a good vs evil book fantasy. Then be prepared for an unexpected twist that neither of them could ever have imagined, as the battle reaches a shattering climax.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. I went through the normal childhood dilemma of wishing I had a different name, often watching TV and films, and thinking about changing my name to match a movie star. For some reason my parents never gave myself or my sister a middle name, which only seems to both people in the US as almost everyone here has middle names!
Yes, my plan is to write a series of three Nature’s Marc books, plus I’m also looking at a travel book plus a series about an ancient magician. Watch this space as they say!
It took a few years as I had to write it around my everyday job and family life. Just when I had time to write, something would happen that side-tracked me. In the end it was a matter of fitting the writing in when I could, plus obviously being in the mood to write!
The basic storyline is around a boy who is a force of Nature, so the first part of the title is obvious. As for the second part, my youngest son is called Marc!
I think that every writer is asked that same question. I think that the ideas come from your imagination, so obviously being raised in an age where laptops and mobile phones didn’t exist forced me to use my imagination a lot more. The hardest part was starting the story, then as I would write my mind took me in different directions. Think of it as doing a puzzle, as one part becomes visible the next part suddenly stands out. So I would write a piece where the boys are being chased and find themselves at a watermill, then in my mind I put myself in their place and thought, what would I do now. Well, I would run inside the watermill and bar the door, and so on. Often my ideas would be far ahead or the point I was writing, so I would make notes.
