The Independent Publisher Book Awards Ceremony is May 27th in New York. I am proud to announce that Escape from Netherworld, my first published book, has won the bronze medal for best fantasy novel by an indie author in the national category. I am very excited and want to thank everyone that helped make this book possible.
I am working on the second book in the series now and hope to be considered again when it is published. This award will motivate me further to make the 2nd book in the series even better than the first.

For David Kuklis the love of science
fiction and fantasy began at an early age, when he and his brother, inspired by
the game Dungeons and DragonsTM, staged similar games in their
backyard and nearby woods. His uncle, a marine paralyzed from the neck down in
Vietnam, usually ran the indoor games around the table, and his father was the
inspiration for Twiggy, a major character in this book.
