About the author

Marcus Sebastian
Calder

Marcus Sebastian Calder writes speculative fiction exploring extraordinary worlds, ancient mysteries, formidable characters and the consequences of power.

His debut novel, The Buried Names, launches the Primordial Saga, introducing Torva Vendari, an immensely powerful Primordial of Earth who escapes an ancient imprisonment and begins uncovering the truth behind the betrayal of her people.

Combining sweeping imagination with intimate character storytelling, Calder explores themes of identity, loyalty, freedom and the choices that shape worlds.

His writing embraces mystery, dry humour, complex characters and the belief that even the oldest beings in existence still have something to discover about themselves.
