Matthew B. Berg has too many hobbies. That means he won’t be cranking out books in quantities like Brandon Sanderson or Terry Brooks any time soon. But writing has always been his abiding passion, and he takes his role as a storyteller seriously. So, he won’t leave you hanging like George R.R. Martin or Patrick Rothfuss either. Berg tries to write the kind of stories he’d want to read himself. Tales that inspire and make the reader think. Stories that aren’t easy or predictable, and don’t shirk from darkness, grit and realism. But, in an effort to make his works accessible to a wide audience, he avoids presenting violence and sexuality in a graphic or sensationalized way. Matthew grew up on the swashbuckling heroics of Errol Flynn, Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis. And the creative characters and world-building of Tolkien, Eddings, Donaldson, and Anthony. He embraces the trappings of medieval/renaissance fantasy in his writing to remind you (and him) that what you are reading is an escape. Though he rejects any suggestion that wonder and adventure, romance and chivalry, lack a place in our modern world. Ultimately, he wants his readers to remember that while darkness and evil exist, there are still reasons to be hopeful. Like Breeden and his friends, humans in the real world can rise to meet the challenges of whatever we might face.
