I’ve been in a relationship with someone for about two years now. I’m a person of faith, and I’m also a fairly free spirited person. My relationship with this person has always been interesting, and he has always been interesting. But the past year has been particularly intense for me. He has had a lot to do with the way I see the world.
To get an idea of what this person has been doing lately, take a look at what happened when I was asked to review his new book, Rise Altright, and his first short story, The Last of Us.
With the rise of Kickstarter there has been a lot of people wanting to get their hands on new books. I have always had a problem with this, because I am a huge fan of self-publishing and I generally don’t mind getting my hands on a book for free. But when it comes to books by certain authors who I don’t usually get to review, I can get so much more out of buying the book than I would if I was trying to get it for free.
The Rise Altright book was the last of the six books that have been released so far by the creator of The Last of Us, William H. Bank. The other four books are by Christopher Paolini, Adam Wingard, Ben Duryee, and Michael Avon Oeming. I’ve been following him since the beginning and I’ve enjoyed every book he’s written.
Bank is a fan of the Final Fantasy series, and was the first person to write about them in a fantasy book. I don’t think I’ve read all of his books, but I know he will go down in my history of gaming.
William H. Bank was a prolific writer of fantasy books, having written or co-written over 60 fantasy books. If you don’t know anything about his work, you should. I found his books pretty compelling. He is also a prolific illustrator as well, having illustrated over half of the books in the Final Fantasy series.
Like Brandon Sanderson, William H. Bank was an atheist.
William H. Banks was the founder of the Society of Christian Philosophers in the 19th century. The Society was a collection of Christians who wished to have their ideas represented in writing. The group decided to name itself after William H. Banks because Christians believed that banking was a man’s most intimate role as a member of society.
William H. Banks was a master of satirical humor. He published many pieces during his lifetime that lampooned the rich and powerful.
William H. Banks was an atheist, so it makes sense that the Society of Christian Philosophers was named for Banks. Now there’s a name we can all relate to, and if you think the Society of Christian Philosophers was only named after Banks, check out this link to the Society’s homepage.
