Cassandra beyond the mirrors. Brown eyes able to pierce the veil

New member of the Ghost Galleon: Cassandra.

She will give us the magic, the atmosphere, the sheath needed to believe. Cassandra goes from a fan to a collaborator. A member of this team of mad bombers. It comes with the certainty of knowing the future, with the desire to make their predictions for this fable that is weaved in the early morning with virtual paint brushes and words hidden in the folds of reality. She is coming, which is the important matter. And she will stay. She knows more than many. She knows even more than she knows.She is welcomed in this lost crew to open us her corner, her "words beyond the mirror." Our reality is much more magical, much more friendly and much more possible seen through her brown eyes with no time measurement.

Our trip will be a real adventure in your company. Thank you for restoring the faith of these old rag dolls.

"Cassandra lives beyond the mirrors. No time, no past. With scraps of a future in  her parallel universe. She observes and plays with hatters and painters dolls. Time does not affect her nor conditions her. She knows stories that have not been told, things that have not happened yet. She is the magic when she dedides to probe us the thruth. Her words pick you up to a mirror world, a dreamt, guessed crazy world, where the fouls know how to be right and dreams are blurred. Following her is like entering a cosmos without barriers or borders.  She doesn't exist. She has always been. Under her gaze hours are lost, days are lost, realities are lost. She is two brown eyes that stare what no-one sees and tell with no-spoken words the dreams we have not dreamt yet."

Pedro Camacho. Translations

The new adventure of this Saga and the projects we have in mind needed to open up the English language. We want to achieve a greater openness and to extend this history and those coming beyond the borders of this country and this culture.

Finding the right person to place the confidence for this challenge has been really easy. Pedro Camacho is currently the headmaster of CEIP El Puntal in Bedar, Almeria and the English teacher at the center. Settled for some years in Garrucha (Almería), Pedro Camacho is an author of Fantasy, Fiction and Short Story with several titles to his credit. As if that were not enough to have an English teacher who is also a writer on the task of translating my lines, Pedro is also an old friend, the kind that does not fade with time. There are many old trenches and battle scars that this gentleman and I show together pridely. Translator, friend and writer... Could we ask for more? We can and Pedro offer it: a full understanding of the works, world, characters and essence of this saga, as vast as my own. Few can say they had seen this story germinate and grow from more increasing steps but he can. Few have from my own hand and a thousand late night conversations more information than he. Few, very few have witnessed correction after correction, version after version, outtakes, improvements, additions and changes as my dear old Pedro Camacho. As he joins this venture, it solidifies its way to new horizons. His will to contribute with his knowledge and energy and above all, the great affection he has for these pages not only reassures me but it fills me with a pride hardly explicable. 

Pedro will check the English version of this blog and some other yet to be born, still waiting their time, and he is responsible of our projects in Anglo-Saxon language. I can not be happier for it.

In Soon you learn more about the other facets of Peter.

Welcome aboard the Ghost Galleon, dear friend.

Javir Charro, Illustrator

It is my pleasure to officially announce you the loose and flexible covenant with Javier Charro in this new turn of the project. I met Javier Charro unintentionally. It was a will of fate. We did not know each other when he was commissioned to do the first cover of the saga. Life went around and now I can say it's almost my neighbor in Madrid.

He knows the characters and the universe quite well. He has a special talent to discover the characters'soul , and reflect it in their eyes. We have spent some months just about to start new projects and I am aware that this new path we have to explore can not be trodden without him.

We win a powerful ally, with his sight and paint brushes, for this saga.

Here it is a little biography so that you may know him better:

Javier Charro Martinez was born in León in 1980 and he moved to Las Palmas de GC with a few months old. Through his father, a painter in his youth, he started his passion for the art of painting, developed later between the worlds of comics and fantasy illustration.

After working on an animated cartoon made entirely of graphite, in 2003 he began to publish illustrations for RPGs. Since that moment, he starts working as a freelance illustrator, combining it with his degree in Architecture.

In 2006, he settles in Madrid, working as a creative architect in a famous Spanish study as he continues his career as an illustrator. It's in summer 2010 when he finally decides to focus on the latter, starting new projects and taking a larger number of orders.

He counts in his curriculum with more than two hundred illustrations published by national and foreign publishers in different media: novels covers, role plays, letters, magazines and board games, for fantasy , science fiction and horror atmosphere, among others.

Some of the publishers and companies that have had their sevices are:

Fantasy Flight Games ( USA )

Mongoose Publishing ( UK )

Moon Design Publications ( UK )

Hero Games ( USA )

Mythic Dreams / Crafty Games ( USA )

Jabbwerocky Team ( USA )

Editorial Shadow (Spain)

Epic Worlds (Spain)

Communication Dobleuve SL (Spain)

Soon you will know more about the projects that Javi and I are preparing and you will be able to link directly to his web space, as this, are changing.
