Book Trailer Released for High Fantasy Author R.T. Kaelin’s Top Fantasy Novel, Progeny

The book trailer for the first volume of R.T. Kaelin's epic fantasy book has been released. R.T. Kaelin's writing style has been compared to Robert Jordan and the fantasy book's scope to Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia.

Available for viewing at the book’s website and YouTube, The 2 minute-30 second trailer gives readers a chance to glimpse what awaits them in the fantasy novel that has garnered rave reviews.

"I am extremely pleased," stated Kaelin, "with the critical success of this fantasy novel. Progeny was written to draw the reader into a vibrant, vivid world full of characters as substantive as any living person. The goal was to have the tale flow seamlessly from the first chapter, picking up and sweeping reader and characters alike into a masterfully woven, tidal epic. I wanted loyalty and love to contrast with scheming and treachery, combining together to create a richly rewarding journey full of both joy and heartache. When the last line is completed, I wanted the readers of the first entry in The Children of the White Lions series to demand to know what comes next. I believe I have achieved that goal."

Progeny is the first installment in the Children of the White Lions series and many believe it is among the best fantasy books released recently. Progeny has been compared to Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter. Interest in the book has been high for this fantasy book, and R.T. Kaelin has been very busy sharing his fantasy fiction novel with readers.

Excerpts From Reviews of Print Edition:
"Anyone who enjoys adventure stories or magical and paranormal I would suggest you give this a try. For me, Progeny is in league with both The Chronicles of Narnia and Lord of the Rings and far better than Harry Potter - Progeny has a wealth of depth to it that I haven't seen in many books." - Clover Hill Book Reviews

"Overall, I would favorably compare his writing with Brandon Sanderson, Scott Lynch, (early) Robert Jordan and even a bit of David Eddings flavor mixed in. I really enjoyed this book and my biggest disappointment is going to be waiting for the next installment." -C. Shadis, reviewer at LibraryThing.com

"The disparate characters we meet along the way are intriguing and richly nuanced, reminding one of Tolkien's without being derivative. This is a big book and a big world, surprisingly well conceived for a first novel. I very much look forward to the next book in the series, and I strongly encourage Mr. Kaelin to keep writing." -D Kistner, Associate Editor of FutureCycle Press
