Stories That Remember What Humanity Forgets

Books Written by Steve Arnold

DELFI

Epic Poetry

In the last 200 years, writing an epic poem is no longer normal—it’s exceptional.

Only about 100 epic poems, like Song of Hiawatha and Idylls of the King, have been written in two centuries.

Anyone who undertakes it is implicitly arguing that:

myth still matters,

long-form poetry still carries meaning,

and culture still needs synthesis, not fragments.

That places modern epics in a rarer, more intentional lineage than ancient ones.

Why These Books Endure

Because they don’t chase trends.  They tap into something older.

These works speak to readers who:

·         Love myth, poetry, and meaning.

·         Feel drawn to stories with moral gravity.

·         Prefer depth over distraction

·         And believe stories should leave a mark

If you’re looking for something that stays with you – Welcome!

DELFI

An epic poem of love, power, and the cost of domination.

Once, the world was balanced.

Then greed took the throne.

 

Delfi is a sweeping epic poem set in a mythical world where peace has been shattered by conquest – and where love becomes the last force strong enough to challenge absolute power.

Two beings, as different as the sun and the moon, must confront an evil that does not merely want to rule….but to consume.

This is a story about:

·         The seduction of power

·         The resilience of love

·         And the fragile line between protection and domination.

For readers drawn to timeless myth, moral tension, and poetic storytelling that echoes long after the final line.

LEGEND OF VENGEMAN

LEGEND OF VENGEMAN

An epic poem of redemption at the edge of extinction.

The world has already ended once.

Two hundred years after humanity nearly destroyed itself, evil has tightened its grip – and hope has narrowed to a single, dangerous possibility.

Legend of Vengeman is a post-apocalyptic epic poem about responsibility, sacrifice, and the unbearable weight of being the last chance.

It asks a haunting question:                                                                                                                              

What if the fate of the human race depended, not on armies….but on one person’s willingness to stand alone?

This is not a story of easy heroism.                                                                                                                                             

It’s a story of consequence.

For readers who believe redemption is earned, not granted – and that the greatest battles are fought within.

A HUNGER FOR KNOWLEDGE

A HUNGER FOR KNOWLEDGE

Poetry matched with original art photography

 

This is not a book you rush through.

It’s a book you enter.

 

A Hunger for Knowledge pairs evocative poetry with original art photography to explore curiosity, longing, and the quite ache to understand more than what’s visible on the surface.

Each page slows the reader down—inviting reflection, contemplation, and recognition.   Not answers.  Awareness.

For readers who believe knowledge isn’t just learned…..It’s felt.
