Biography

Angelo (Aggelos) Tsanatelis was born in Athens, Greece on October 24th 1979. He lived for seven years in Bulgaria, where he studied Law at the University of Sofia. During his studies he traveled in Europe and Africa, undertaking 'daring expeditions that no one ever heard about, visited mysterious locations or simply searched for hidden treasures in the most unlikely of places' as he quoted himself in a interview in 2012. After he finished his studies he worked in the private sector for several years before he realized his childhood dream and became an author. His first novel already many years in the making was Origins, the 1st episode in the Living Sword Chronicles series and it was published in April of 2011. It was followed by the novelette, the Rootless set in the same universe and the sequel to Origins, the Lodge & the Tribe.

Dark Jester's Tale

He'll get to impersonate someone else, something he has successfully done in the past and help avert a rebellion from spreading out of control, something he's far from interested in but forced to agree. He gets drawn in an adventure worthy of the past's gutsiest heroes, which is unfortunate, when all you got to work with is a rather infamous but gutless Jester. The story is set in the Living Sword Chronicles expanded universe. The titular character first appeared in the King of Blades series of novels.
