Tales of the Interverse Faire; Volume Three
by STEVEN RUSSELL HYDE
How does one born outside the universe, live in it?
Who can know the twists and turns one's life will take, especially one born outside the universe?
Over the years, the Extra-Universals have been spreading glorious stories of grand adventures and deeds of daring do. Some stories are real, some embellished and a few are absolute fiction. Now is the time for the legend to be made manifest as the whole universe watches.
Clyspus, the Extra-Universal son of Leon and Maakui, is now of age for the Delphaneusian passage into manhood, the Kraken hunt, headed up by his uncle, Chief Aljandro. Chief Aljandro has always seen Clyspus as an abomination, making his relationship with Clyspus contentious at best.
The fate of empires hangs in the balance as the Extra-Universals seek to live up to the legend they have created.
The universe will never be the same.
““Book three of the Interverse Faire was the best of the series so far! The book jumped to the future with Leon’s kids grown up and the Guv going through parenthood issues as well as Grand Guv responsibilities. This is an exciting series with a moral background! Looking forward to book FOUR!!”

My name is Steven Russell Hyde, I make stuff!
Creating stories is the first thing I've ever done! Being the son of two ordained ministers in the Foursquare denomination, My mother, who was also an artist, got me interested in the creative arts. My father, also being a singer, connected me with a vocal coach, who had me singing "Away in the Manger" before a packed house at Angelus Temple in Los Angeles, at four years old! (No, they weren't all there for just me, ya sillies!) Starting with show and tell in kindergarten, I wrote stories as I thought of them. In grade school, I started documenting my dreams and blended some together to create a few more stories. Parallel with that, I've been an avid model builder since the age of four. I found out I could get paid for my hobby in '86 and worked on the practical ant for "Honey I shrunk The Kids!" Since then there have been numerous other films including ABYSS, TITANIC and BACK TO THE FUTURE TWO. With a two-year stint on staff at Disney Imagineering, I learned a lot about robotics and show design. Parallel with all that, I have been involved in more than a few extreme sports, just for fun. Currently, I have a Virtual and Augmented Reality Theme Park concept burning a hole in my pocket. "Tales of the Interverse Faire" came from a dream I had. In writing it out, I found myself asking, "Who are these people and what are their backstories?" "What is the Interverse Faire and how did it come to be?" and, "What planets support these alien life forms and how did they get out into space?" It took a decade to create the universe that Tales of the Interverse Faire exists in. The nutshell version? We Humans, from earth, colonized out and seeded the stars with our kind. Everything happening in my books is present day and all live affect each other, no matter how small.
