My son Zach has always had a level of brilliance he never realized. When he came up with the idea of this when he was 12, he expanded on it. We initially came up with four Pillars and the fountain of energy that they sat around. We then developed the idea of a great library where all of the history of the Pillars was kept. Zach decided one day to add two Pillars, Creation and Destruction. From there we expanded these ideas until at one point two years ago I decided to write a story. I expected to write for six or eight weeks then quit. But that didn’t happen and this first book, Malus, was written.
