From the moment Evelyn M. Exley’s Evanswood: Part I was opened, it was obvious this was going to be an epic journey; an adventure that would have readers holding their breath, turning pages ever faster, and hoping against all possibilities that cruel fate would finally be kind.

This is a tale of knights, lords, kings, maidens, and pirates.  In the land of Pithany, the regency rules.  But in one corner of this land, far from curious eyes and lords who would strike them down, lies a place called Evanswood, where a man labeled the Black Pirate is teaching his recruits a new way of thinking and governing.  Evanswood is ruled by The Code and guarded by the blade.  But this is no retelling of King Arthur’s tales, for the lords and kings are ruthless and cruel, while the so-called pirate, though fierce and determined, is a man who respects life and liberty.  In essence, Evanswood is a place where the people seek a new, better way of living.
