Packed with non-stop twists and turns, the darkest of magic, political intrigue, otherworldly creatures, cinematic adventure, and blushed with ancient philosophy, Evintyde is based on the best-selling "Kandide" books by Diana S. Zimmerman and aged up for a more mature audience by Steven L. Sears and Diana Zimmerman.
Time is running out for this other-worldly land, where magic is normal. Sunsets last for hours. And abundance is in abundance. There’s no racism, ageism, or genderism. It’s a perfect world. Or is it...
Thirteen clans, each with a different kind of magic, reside within Evintyde’s four warring kingdoms. Their rulers have no rules, except one: Physical Perfection is the Law! Those who are not physically perfect, a blind eye, injured hand, foot, or wing that can't be healed? Banished to the Mysts, a savage dead-land teaming with hideous killer-beasts.
Such is the fate of Kandide, a self-absorbed newly crowned young Queen who possesses Evintyde’s live-giving spell. Without its deployment, Evintyde will cease to exist.
When Kandide is brutally injured by Lady Aron—a power-mad, revenge-seeking Sorceress—and mysteriously disappears, her only hope of surviving is to align with those she was taught to fear, a ragtag band of other ‘Imperfects.’ To save themselves, they must destroy their world.
THE EVINTYDE FRANCHISE
Evintyde goes well beyond books, movies, and a television series…
Because the world of Evintyde is so unique, vast, compelling, and highly
visual with mesmerizing characters and creatures, Video Games will be
massive for the Franchise. When the first "Kandide" book was launched,
Attack of the Garglans, a free “Kandide” kids’ game, garnered more than
one million downloads in its first two months.
Interactive Graphic Novels, Immersive Experiences, and Merchandising,
that includes: branded clothing, jewelry, plush animals, toys, dolls,
music, magic sets, board games, perfume, and costumes, for kids and
adults, will generate even greater profits. The poster of Kurajee, the baby
griffin, sold more than 50,000 prints.
