Damien M Casey is a fifty nine year old author from Melbourne, Australia. In a ten year career so far, Damien has completed writing ten books. He enjoys gardening, painting impressionistic oil paintings and writing long novels especially in the fantasy genre. He is a qualified horticulturalist, with over forty five years experience working in botanical institutions around the world. Having been in business for thirty years, he is amply qualified to comment on gardening, landscape garden construction and design. With a love for all things creative, his fantasy books are resourceful, full of wonderfully imaginative characters that sparkle and shine in stories that are designed to take the reader to the infinite outreaches of the imagination. Not only is Damien a creative author, but his penchant for perfectionism is very evident in the way his books are written. Imagination, flair, constructive tension mixed with a sense of humour are traits that flavour his writing skills. In his first book titled, 'The Tales of the Magic Piano (Part One ), Damien has pieced together a very ambitious storyline that tells of a Norwegian family who discover a magical potion in a miraculous manuscript that transports them to a distant place and time. This wonderful novel is the first of eight whose many adventures see the Christensen family endure endless terror and tyranny from wizards, witches and the forces of darkness that conspire against them. Truly - a wonderful read. However, his skill is also represented in other books of a different genre. Although 'The Miraculous Spectaculous Courtyard Pond' is a fantasy book, it is completely different in texture and feeling to his first book, giving further credence to this wonderful author's story-telling ability. In a different genre altogether, The Prophecy of Revelation 12 is a suspense, super-spy, mystery thriller that builds the tension slowly as the super villain, Victor Thrax, seeks to dominate the world's uranium market. In an explosive finale, Justin Rowe, an Australian DCF federal agent counters this villain's aggression with some super-slick, gut-wrenching, seat-of-your pants action. Damien has captured the mood and tempo of this novel well as he presents a fast-moving novel of non stop action. All of these books come highly recommended.
