Some things are better left undiscovered.  Powerful things, dangerous things…  Why is it we chase them with such abandon?  

This site is dedicated to the Echowake series of books written by John G. Stevens.  Echowake is a Fantasy/Steampunk novel set in a world full of powerful mystics, world-spanning adventures and the endless struggle for control of The Well: an ancient altar thought to be the source of all life’s energy.

John is a devoted husband and proud father of three spirited boys. Born and raised in the picturesque landscapes of New England, he now calls Central Florida home, escaping the chill of northern winters. The rhythm of John’s life took a unique beat when he and his family lived in Japan, igniting their shared love for travel, global cuisine, and the threads that weave humanity together. With an insatiable palate that champions buffalo chicken as the ultimate delicacy, John is as eclectic in his passions as he is in his tastes. As a musician, voracious reader, and Tai Chi enthusiast, he draws from a rich tapestry of experiences in his writing. John is a lifelong storyteller who crafts worlds without boundaries, always envisioning the infinite possibilities that lie beyond the horizon.
