I grew up on Dragonlance and probably spent way too much time playing role-playing games. Then came the video games. But then, Nintendo was life in Toronto of '86. As a matter of fact, much of my youth could be considered "wasted" exploring escapism of one form or another.
Now I'm a full-time author living in British Columbia, Canada. I have a wife who taught me what it means to love someone unconditionally. Buddha, my grumpy but rumpled-with-love cat, likes to keep watch from a Lego castle near my desk. (Update: said Lego castle has long been dismantled. Now she basks under a sun lamp).
I suppose my favorite sagas are Harry Potter, Ender's Game, Lord of the Rings, Narnia, and Game of Thrones. I also love true-life survival tales like Into Thin Air, Shadowdivers, and Perfect Storm. As for movies, I regularly re-watch Bladerunner, Star Wars, Highlander, Aliens, Limitless, Edge of Tomorrow, Interstellar, Lost in Translation, and Margin Call.
But I've been most inspired by Harry Potter. Seriously, because if it hadn't been for HP, I'd never have dared. I simply stood on the shoulders of a giant. Thank you for writing that story, Joanne Rowling, it was extremely re-readable. I can only hope to capture my readers' imagination as you have captured mine.
When I was a kid, I dreamed I could spread my arms as wings, jump off the ground, and fly. My head was in the clouds (and in many ways, still is). It would be fair to say that my love of fantasy began then, steadily refined by movies, video games, and cozy books.
As for me, I enjoy talking to my readers, so if you read one of my books, you're welcome to shoot me an email at severbronny@gmail.com. Throw me a question, comment, or just say hello.
I blog at severbronny.com when the mood strikes me, and I'm on social media now and then. I don't publish too often, but you can subscribe to my newsletter to receive a notification when I do release new work (newsletter signup is at severbronny.com/contact).
(I was also a musician at one time, having released three albums with my industrial-rock band Tribal Machine.)
When all is said and done, I know how fortunate I am to be a full-time author. I think about it often--especially when I recall what it was like working the grind. Thus I humbly thank each and every reader for supporting my work.

Are we there yet?
Getting closer by the day, Jared. The book is currently in the formatting stage, which takes time to do right.
These books have gotten me back into reading for fun again. I haven’t been able to finish a book just for the enjoyment for years, but these I can’t stop reading. Very excited for the new book, I’m sure it’ll be great :D
That’s wonderful, and I’m honored to have played a part in you finding the joy of reading again! :)
Not long to wait now.
When do ART get notified? This is the the best series I have read ever, it leads on from the last book yet has a new setting and story making it fresh and exiting so thanks lots
Soon, so hang in there :)
And glad you’re enjoying the work! Any favorite scenes? Fav characters?
My fav character is Augum, he’s got such a deep background and enjoyable character! My favourite scenes are the stuff about the Arcaners, I think they are awesome and can’t wait for more info on them.
Then you’re in for a treat, as there will be more Arcaner stuff in book two!
Ugh, now I know I’ll be checking this site every day until release day . . . Keep up the great work Sever!
You and me both Arthur
Formatting begins this weekend. The book is ready for print! :D
Looks Great!!! Enjoyed reading all 6 books in the series… awaiting the release of the latest one
You and me both, my friend. You and me both. Just wrapped up the final set of notes and points that needed addressing today (took all day). Formatting begins this weekend.
Really good book 1 can’t wait for book two, definitely the best book I have read from amazon
I’m honored and grateful that you enjoyed it that much, Colten!
I’m assuming you’re talking about Burden’s Edge? Have you read the prequel series, The Arinthian Line yet? It will help bring context to the trio :)

That’s actually the next series on my list, burdens edge was the first of your works I have read. I can’t wait to see how Augum, Leera, and Bridget met!
Ah, then you are in for quite the adventure!
Yay! I’m so excited 😁! I’m rereading all of them in preparation for Honor’s Price’s release. Can’t wait.
That’s awesome! This new chapter in the trio’s story will really advance things. Can’t wait for you to read it, Lynn :)
I cant wait for the book!!! i read the first book of this series before reading the other series sadly, but both were/are an amazing series!!! cant wait to see where this book goes.
Glad you’re enjoying the work, Nathan. And I can’t wait either! Been working on it all day today doing the final touchups–wowee, so exciting!
Hopefully augum isn’t acting like a depressed child in this sequel was getting a bit tedious I’m the first of this second series arinthian line was amazing hoping this is as good
Augum will always have his challenges, and he’s been prone to some a bit more than others. Glad you’re enjoying the work nonetheless.

My pleasure.
