My primary industry is filmmaking. For over ten years, I worked as a VFX Supervisor and Generalist on various Hollywood productions, some of them for major brands and networks, such as Sketchers USA, Rio Vista Universal, and the SyFy Channel. As someone with a passion for creative storytelling and a desire to relate richly visual images, I began to write original content—charged with the sights and sounds one may experience in a theater.
A vast epic to end all epics. Really a “staple” piece in the world of fantasy books. I remember reading this as a youngster and being daunted by the inventive prose, and elevated diction. The type of book that makes you feel like you’re getting smarter by every flip of the page.
Special collector's film tie-in hardback of the best-selling classic, featuring the complete story with a sumptuous cover design inspired by THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY and brand new reproductions of all the drawings and maps by J.R.R. Tolkien.

But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an unexpected journey 'there and back again'. They have a plot to raid…
Allegorically rich and powerful in imagery, I would recommend C.S. Lewis’s work to any young adult delving into fantasy fiction for the first time. I used to keep the entire collection on my bedstand as a child. It’s a rarity, as the film adaptation only emboldens what’s so great about the book.

This is an interesting one...there are images portrayed in The Giver that remain with me to this day. I don’t know if it was just a “right place right time” sort of thing, but the author’s depiction of black and white vision – suddenly impacted by flashes of color – were so vividly written, that it inspired a major creative work of mine. I haven’t seen the film, though if I were to guess, the book outweighs it by far.
THE GIVER is soon to be a major motion picture starring Jeff Bridges, Katie Holmes and Taylor Swift.
Now available for the first time in the UK, THE GIVER QUARTET is the complete four-novel collection.
THE GIVER: It is the future. There is no war, no hunger, no pain. No one in the community wants for anything. Everything needed is provided. And at twelve years old, each member of the community has their profession carefully chosen for them by the Committee of Elders.
Jonas has never thought there was anything wrong with his world. But from the moment he is…
Although this one is not a movie, Ted Dekker’s works have been adapted into feature films and have hit multiple bestseller lists, including The New York Times. I inhaled this book in a few days (they call him the “master of suspense”). An impactful read, though not for the faint of heart.
Epic battles of good and evil are happening all around us.
Today that battle comes to town with the sound of lone footsteps clacking down the blacktop on a hot, lazy summer afternoon. The black-cloaked man arrives in the sleepy town of Paradise and manages to become the talk of the town within the hour. Bearing the power to grant any unfulfilled dream, he is irresistible.
Seems like bliss . . . but is it? Or is hell about to break loose in Paradise?
It’s a near-perfect story. Was required reading in elementary school, and of course, became a major motion picture distributed by the Walt Disney company. It’s a truly timeless book that craftily exposits the not-so “happenstance” events in life that may seem awful at the time, but are actually a blessing in disguise. I may re-read this someday.
