Origin Scroll is the first volume of the Targa Trilogy and the cornerstone of the epic fantasy Alcea Collection which spans sixteen volumes in three series.
Alexander Tork is an apprentice lumberman, a fifteen year old who is forced to take the lead when his village is attacked by a pack of vicious beasts. But darker things lurk in the lands of Targa and Cordonia, an evil questing for an artifact that will shake the very Universe. Alex, and two more unknown youths, Oscar and Jenneva, are the only ones who can prevent the end of their universe... they just don't know it yet.

A Vet - Thanks for listening! I am scheduled to begin recording Dark Quest, Book Two of the Targa Trilogy, in August.By: A Vet
A great listen - please tell us there will be podiobooks. Wonderful story can't wait for more - Thank You very muchBy: Richard S. Tuttle
Buckrun33 ? Thank you for the feedback. Nothing is more satisfying than bringing smiles to the faces of kids! I originally wrote Origin Scroll, Dark Quest, and Ancient Prophecy in 1997 for my own kids. I never imagined that would be the start of a new career. I am glad that your kids enjoyed it, and I am sure that they will enjoy the rest. If you get the chance, please email me at richard@rstuttle.com and let me know how old your kids are. I am always interested in learning as much as I can about my fans. Quandmeme ? Thank you for your kinds words. Chapter 16 of Origin Scroll is a rare chapter with lots of scene breaks as I tried to portray the different segments of the battle as they were happening. In my twenty-four books since I have never had another chapter with so many scene breaks. The music, of course, denotes a scene break as the visual indication normally used is not available to the listener. As for the contributions, that would be nice, but I am happy enough that readers like the story enough to rate it highly. It is the ratings that will keep me recording for podiobooks.com. Chris ? Dark Quest is scheduled to be recorded some time this summer, but admittedly, it is a low priority. New writings get the bulk of my time. I expect to be done with volume six of the Demonstone Chronicles by (hopefully) the end of July. After that is published I will take up the recording of Dark Quest. Alex, Jenneva, and Oscar will be back! Stay tuned!
