Personal Note From the Author - Deric Wagner

Thank you so much for your support and for being part of this journey.

There’s something truly special about escaping into a world filled with magic, mystery, and heroes who rise from the most unexpected places. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been drawn to urban fantasy—the way it transforms the familiar into the extraordinary, making every corner of the city a potential gateway to adventure.

That’s the inspiration behind the History of Folly Universe. I wanted to bring ancient myths into a modern world, where the old pizza shop on the corner or a shortcut through the park might lead you to a forgotten hero or lurking monster.

My hope is that these stories bring you the same joy and excitement they’ve brought me. If they add a little magic to your day, then I’ve done my job.

Happy reading,

Deric Wagner
