‘MASTER’S ENDGAME’ DEBUTS FROM HANSEN’S WAY!


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FINAL CHAPTER OF NANCY A. HANSEN’S EPIC FANTASY TRILOGY
‘MASTER’S ENDGAME’ DEBUTS FROM HANSEN’S WAY!

An innovative publisher of Genre Fiction, Pro Se Productions proudly announces the third book in the acclaimed epic fantasy trilogy created by Nancy A. Hansen and published as a part of her author centered imprint with Pro Se Productions, Hansen’s Way. Master’s Endgame is now available in print and digital formats.

“It is the greatest of pleasures,” says Tommy Hancock, Partner in and Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “to announce the release of Master’s Endgame. The world that Nancy has not only woven in words, but painstakingly built in detail and created with the most passion I’ve ever seen in any writer, unfolds fully realized in the pages of this trilogy. And Master’s Endgame is the perfect close to this chapter of Callie’s life, replete with all the adventure, action, fantasy, and intrigue that readers have come to expect and indeed continue to clamor for from Nancy A. Hansen.”

War is coming to Greenwood.

A joint coalition of the Dark Ones, led by a wily and powerful ancient adversary, have gathered on the borders of the enchanted forest. Their object: to reopen an all important portal to the shadow world of Terra Incognita, where they will release their fell brethren waiting on the other side into the world of the living once again. All that stands between this confederacy of evil entities and creatures bent on destruction and mayhem, is a single guardian Naiad, and straggling bands of half-starved Elves.

Across the river, in the more peaceful lands of Humans, Callie's pregnancy is now full term. As the armies of friend and foe march into battle in the forest, her child's birth is imminent. Will this babe live long enough to become the savior who unites the scattered allies of the Light World once more, and beat back the Dark God's horde? Or will the ploys of the enemy's Master Summoner snuff out that little life before it has a chance to tip the scales of balance in the Light World's favor?

These are the times foretold: the age of the Master's Endgame! The third chapter in Fantasy Pulp Author Nancy Hansen’s Trilogy brings the tale told in Fortune’s Pawn and Prophecy’s Gambit to an adventurous, explosive ending. Masterful at both elaborate description and edge of your seat action, Hansen delivers a fully realized heroine in Callie in Master’s Endgame, from Hansen’s Way and Pro Se Productions.

Featuring evocative art by h-eri and logo design and print formatting by Percival Constantine, Master’s Endgame is available for $15.00 at Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Masters-Endgame-Nancy-Hansen/dp/1511432055/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1427378034&sr=8-1&keywords=master%27s+endgame+hansen and via Pro Se Productions’ own store at www.prose-press.com.

FANTASY DONE ‘HANSEN’S WAY’-- NEW IMPRINT AND NEW BOOK FROM PRO SE!

Pro Se Productions
Press Release for Immediate Release

FANTASY DONE ‘HANSEN’S WAY’-NEW IMPRINT AND NEW BOOK FROM PRO SE!

Pro Se Productions, a leading Publisher in the New Pulp Movement, announced its latest release today!  A three story collection entitled ‘Tales of the Vagabond Bards’ written by Nancy Hansen is now available.   Hansen, a prolific author in Pulp Fantasy, follows up her first novel, “Fortune’s Pawn” with this trio of tales set in the same world as the novel, but looking at events through a different set of eyes.

According to Pro Se, “In a time of upheaval, where magick and religion often collide, those who keep the old ways are increasingly shunned and ridiculed. The Vagabond Bards, a dedicated group of musicians, singers, actors, poets, and teachers of the unwritten oral folklore of the Terran Worlds, are finding themselves coming under pressure to disband or face probable imprisonment—even death. For generations these roving men and women have spread throughout the population, dedicating their lives to educating and assisting their fellow Humans while recording and preserving their knowledge and experiences, making sure the tales of the past are kept alive throughout the mostly illiterate masses. Sworn to Understand, Love, and Keep the Truth, they now face strong opposition from the upstart religion of Helios the Sun God, whose belief is sweeping the countryside, rewriting history and changing views of the past in the most alarming manner. These are the tales of those heroic troubadours, who fight for justice not with weapons, but with words.”

This exciting collection of fantasy fiction from one of New Pulp’s brightest stars in the genre not only debuts a whole new cast of characters and tales from Hansen, but is also the first volume in Pro Se’s latest author focused imprint-Hansen’s Way!

There are times when it is mindboggling,” commented Hansen concerning her work leading to her own imprint, “and I’m surprised I can keep the details straight. When I was approached about having my own imprint—which is an honor for someone who previous to 2010 was an unknown writer—I immediately thought about all those Terran World (the home of the Vagabond Bards) short stories, and bringing them in under one banner. I have 5 different series amongst those right now; each series with its own unique setting and recurring characters, and there have been some crossover characters and settings between them. It just makes more sense to keep them under one flagship imprint than scattering them hither and yon in other publications.”

“Nancy is a hit,” stated Tommy Hancock, Partner in and Editor in Chief of Pro Se, “both with the company and readers eager to follow her work.  “Fortune’s Pawn” had a great showing as a debut novel and Nancy has so many stories bubbling and ready to boil over, stories that appeal to all sorts of readers-Pulp fans, fantasy followers, and more!  And now they can all easily find her work by following ‘Hansen’s Way.’”

Hansen’s Way is the latest Pro Se imprint.  Following the announcement mid 2010 of Reese Unlimited, the first Pro Se imprint, Hansen’s Way is the second Author Focused Imprint from the publisher.  “When an author,” Hancock commented, “presents not only with a large, but a solid body of work, such as the imaginative worlds of fantasy whirling around in Nancy’s mind, it makes sense to put them in a package, in a sense.  Especially when the stories hit a vein with fans as Nancy’s obviously have.”

“Tales of the Vagabond Bards” is available via Amazon as well as via Pro Se Pulp’s CreateSpace store (https://www.createspace.com/3778916) in print and will be available via Smashwords and Amazon as an ebook within the next week!  With an excellent cover by David Russell and formatting for the print version by Sean Ali and for the ebook by Russ Anderson, this is truly a Pro Se Book to add to your collection!
