FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
It’s said that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. But the journey of imagination begins with a single idea—one that can shape entire worlds, if you so choose. And no one knows that better than Richard C. White, bestselling fantasy and science fiction author of such titles as Gauntlet: Dark Legacy: Paths of Evil and Star Trek: SCE: Echoes of Coventry, who brings his expertise for world building to Terra Incognito: A Guide to Building the Worlds of Your Imagination, StarWarp Concepts’ first reference work for writers interested in crafting their own storytelling environments.
In Terra Incognito, White outlines the detailed steps by which writers can create the sort of countries, populations, governments, and militaries that are essential for building a three-dimensional fantasy world aimed at engaging readers. Additionally, this guidebook includes an exclusive interview with Tracy Hickman, acclaimed game designer and world builder, and New York Times bestselling author of the Dragonlance, Annals of Drakis, and Dragonships of Vindras series of novels. Cover art for Terra Incognito is provided by acclaimed fantasy painter Shane Braithwaite.

“An accurately dialogued epic set in a place and time of fantasy. If you like pirates or elves or fantasy adventure or pure swashbuckling, then pick it up.”
—Comic Genesis, on The Chronicles of the Sea Dragon Special

“Richard C. White knows how to write a story! Well paced and flowing nicely…this is a sign of an awesome writer.”
