Author, gamer promotes female friendly fantasy fiction in new book.

Port Orford, OR (PRWEB) May 1, 2007 -- As far back as the Knights of the Roundtable, medieval and fantasy-themed tales have idealized the heroic male. With more and more women becoming interested in fantasy fiction and role-playing games, as seen in the World of Warcraft phenomenon, it's time the genre moved past the macho heroes and featured strong female characters.

Author Jayel Gibson continues to promote a new era of video game inspired fantasy fiction from an uncompromisingly feminine point of view with Dragon Queen: An Ancient Mirrors Tale (Synergy Books, May 2007, ISBN 1-933538-46-4, $14.95), a prequel to last year's popular release, The Wrekening. Gibson was driven to create this platform for fearless females in fantasy because of her own past frustrations with the genre.
