In this episode of Across the Realms, I sit down for a conversation with Abel Montero. Abel is an Advertising Art Director and the best-selling author of nine SFF novels in Italy. He’s also the creator of bookswithabel, a BookTube channel where Abel gives book reviews and shines light on indie authors and their books. With The Crimson Fire, Abel steps onto the international stage, delivering a sweeping tale of rebellion, divine power, and impossible choices that promises to captivate readers worldwide.
