Histria Books is pleased to announce the paperback release of Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time by Ben G. Price. This compelling book is published by Histria SciFi & Fantasy, an imprint of Histria Books encompassing outstanding, innovative works in the genres of science fiction and fantasy.
In Ogden, fantasy collides with the age of machines in a world of crumbling stone circles, hissing steam and monsters who might be more human than the people who fear them. This is a found family story, a gentle-giant outcast tale, and a grim look at industrial progress all wrapped into one character-driven epic.
Readers who love “monster as metaphor,” morally gray societies, and slow-burn bonds will find plenty to sink their teeth into. Trolls who literally cannot lie face humans who refuse to hear the truth, while secret orders and ruthless industrialists decide who counts as a person.
Ogden is for fans of myth-touched, low-technology fantasy who crave emotional stakes over chosen-one prophecy and intimate relationships over battlefield heroics. It asks what happens when the creature in the cage refuses to play its part in the story and chooses kindness in a world that profits from cruelty.
Praise for Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time:
“A fantasy of the highest order. Ogden will leave you in wonder, wistful for more and an unwavering insight that Nature is sentient. On this great, green planet, we are but one set of eyes among many that see.” — Tom Mullian, editor at La Mott Times
