 		"ACRATARA" - New Book Series?
"Sci-Fi Action/Adventure Trilogy"
Stumbled onto this twitter page earlier today. I'm a fan of sci-fi novels, so I checked out the provided link to the Facebook fan-page. Got 53 followers in the first 3 hours or so that it was created.

The story looks intriguing, kinda like a mash of present-day setting and good vs. evil action. Promising plot? The author is obviously going for a God vs. the Devil (I think)? "Elohim" being God, and "Traitus" being the devil. Traitus must be derived from "Traitor". It's probably the Author's imagined ancient language.

Looks like the author is trying to get 100,000 or so followers by June. His status says that concept arts and a book cover are coming next week. Interesting!

I wonder what Acratara means?

 		Didn't have anything to do so I checked up on our authors twitter. He tweeted today that his book cover and art concepts are being created by Josh Brak. Didn't recognize the name so I googled images and found some of the guys artwork. On deviantart.com there's a digital art piece called "muto" dedicated to the new godzilla movie coming out, which this guy painted. It's freakin sick, almost like a real movie concept. This guy seems like the real deal. Whatever Art is coming, I want to be the first one to see it. Anybody else following this guy?

 		Released Art!
New art has been released for the Acratara novel. There are three pictures so far. K.J. Stone tweeted that they are concepts drawn by a friend of his from a while back, while the "official" concepts and cover are still underway.

K.J. has 276 followers as of today. He's got a long way to go if he hopes to hit 100K followers by June. But his book seems like it may be good. At this point, he's definitely taking this book seriously.

That guy with the katana looks kinda scary. Is that the villain? And what's with the shirt and the daggers?


Someone help us figure this thing out!

 		"ACRATARA" - New Sci-Fi/Action-Adventure Book Series
This story looks really interesting. Early concept cover art has been released!
I'm on vacation. Bored. Been talking about this guy K.J. Stone on Chaotic Fiction. His book story looks really good, and his concept arts do as well. Trying to find the right forum to get people interested and talking about it. So anyone else that's bored out there, let's talk about dem' pics!

Here's the link to the Chaotic Fiction Post I made to get people updated.

Also, the author is trying to get 100,000 followers on Twitter by June. Anyone who wants to contribute to that, here's his Twitter:

He hasn't published the book yet, but he's working on it. He has an interesting business angle as far as getting the book known.

 		Vacation's over, but I'm still able to check in from time to time regarding K.J.'s tweets. He's posted two more only a few minutes apart. No official cover art just yet, but I'll post the tweets.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"They won't ever stop... not until they have what they want." -- "That's a probability... so let's get there before they do."

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"He's... a violent man. He may not even BE a man, let alone of this Earth. His deeds echo across the known world like a whispered rumor."


It's almost as if the author is hinting at something. Even trying to throw us off. Is he still talking about "Traitus" in that last tweet?

 		1} you have already posted about this, don't cross post in multiple subforums. Merging them now.

2} this has nothing to do with 39 clues either, movie this to V&S now.

3} there is no mystery, game, or arg here. You are reading into things - he's posting lines from his writing to generate interest, that's it. That's probably why no one else is biting on this FYI.
