One night after a long bedtime story, the author's sons challenged him to write a book. After years of writing short stories he decided to give it a try. Borrowing an idea from a friend he asked his boys to choose three "things" to include in the story. They chose a dragon, a tree and a ruby, and from those three seeds the story of Gladius grew. J. A. Paul set out to show his three sons that if you set your mind to something, it can be done. For more stories and information visit the author's web site at www.authorJAPaul.com
