Meet the Author: Kasen Wysong’s New Release: The Paths of Time

Meet Kasen Wysong and grab a signed copy of his new release, The Paths of Time, the second his Mayhem series (the first, The Colors of the Mayhem, was a Main Street Reads fantasy hit!

The Staff of the Paths of Time has been triggered.

Ancient magic takes a handful of Wielders four hundred years into the past, to a yet unbroken Alasdair. Despite the vast land, glistening architecture, and sophisticated cultures–signs of turmoil show the Path to the Mayhem is shortening.

Empires ten times the size of the Unnamed Island are a breath away from war. Fervent groups like the Temple of Pure threaten Florica Wielders with their magic. The Nightfall Order grows bolder as they emerge from hiding. And there lurks an even greater threat in the shadows; the Tarantula spins her webs of chaos, entangling the world in her scheme.

The Travelers of the Paths of Time must learn how to navigate this new time period. Their survival depends on it–humanity depends on it. They are the prophets of doom, harkening the Mayhem, but desperate to stop it. Unlikely alliances form, old flames for vengeance rekindle, and new heroes arise. Amid it all, three friends from Floric Academy explore the depths of their own souls–fearing what they might find.

Kasen Wysong devoured fantasy novels and these unlocked new worlds for him. He completed his first book in middle school and fell in love with the process. Almost a decade later, Kasen discovered that book on a flash drive and decided to publish it. He dove into the story, reworking it, adding new portions, and eventually splitting it into two books. The first is the Colors of the Mayhem, and this second addition to the Mayhem Series is The Paths of Time. In many ways, the title is reflective of Kasen’s own journey to publishing it, as the story is deeply connected to his past. A lot of Kasen’s inspiration comes from his unique upbringing in Kyiv, Ukraine.
