Welcome to Tom Arden's Web Site
Fantasy novelist Tom Arden is the author of the five-volume OROKON sequence, comprising The Harlequin's Dance (1997), The King and Queen of Swords (1998), Sultan of the Moon and Stars (1999), Sisterhood of the Blue Storm (2000) and Empress of the Endless Dream (2001).
Set in an imaginary eighteenth-century world, this darkly comic fantasy epic has been variously described as "grotesque," "marvellously camp," "a sprawling baroque tapestry," and "a feverish cross between Georgette Heyer and Mervyn Peake."
