Adrian Tchaikovsky really doesn’t need any introduction. His series Shadows of the Apt is eight impressive (and celebrated) books long. Shadows of the Apt is, hands down, one of the most unique hybrid steampunk/ epic fantasy series that I’ve ever read. I tend to think that a person who can blend so many unique elements into one incredible series of books must have some serious brainpower.

On a music-nerd side note, anyone with the name Tchaikovsky automatically gets my attention. Thus, as a musician my fangirl status has been written in the stars.

That being said, we’re thrilled to add his name to our ever growing list of authors contributing stories to Triumph Over Tragedy.
