Zir love of screenwriting led them to begin a pilot for a six season, epic dark fantasy Tv series “Cursed Worlds” which served the inspiration for this book series.

Wanting to tell the stories as they were conceptualized, Zane decided to adapt the original screenplays into a novel format.
Although, “The Cursed & the Tall Man,” was the script written first, Zane felt “Blood Elf,” would serve as a better introduction to the series, given that it ventures between two of the worlds visited in the series “Cursed & the Tall Man” only takes place in New England.
