EPISODE ONE OF THE MULTI-PART TIPTON SAGA IS NOW AVAILABLE. EPIC STUFF. LET ME EXPLAIN...
Hello I am Philip Davidson, author of the multi-part Tipton Saga, and I want to tell you why I believe this to be an epic fantasy….
The Tipton Saga
In his day my father was a famous and prestigious author. You can see his books at LionelDavidson.com. When I was a boy and lived at home I observed him at work. When off-duty he was mostly charming. However around the time he was working he was highly stressed, over-worked and in a foul mood. I resolved never to write a book as it seemed a tremendously disagreeable task. Decades later I had speculatively written a film script intended for a feature film. It had many innovative features that I didn’t want to get ripped off, and decided to transcribe it into a book before pitching it. Well, it was not as simple as it seemed. Six years later and three books later it still was not finished! Epic ma
It kept gushing out, evolving, being re-written, and was totally unrecognisable from the original film script. It turned into a full-blown fantasy. At the end of the third book another vital element emerged, and I realised I would have to go back and update each of the books already done. Now i think it slowly open up into an epic fantasy.You only become aware of the extent of this near end of the first book. It is unusual as it contains strong elements of every day life. People have said it would make a whole set of feature films so it seems to have ended up were it started. Well, very different actually.
The The first book mainly takes place in the 1800’s. Book two (Courtship) takes place in 2019. This should come out later this year. From there on the series mainly takes place in the present time, although the future of the earth is plotted out in a different realm… I will not reveal more and let you discover.

BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF 'BIRTH OF THE TIPTONS'
The first part of the Tipton Saga is a romp through Victorian England with the first generation of the extraordinary Tipton family. It follows the twin Tipton boys growing up in a Black Country orphanage seeing the industrial revolution taking shape. However it appears an external force is pulling the strings on the boys. Not one force, but two, and this is because of their highly unusual parentage which they are initially unaware of.
In adulthood one brother joins the East India Company, the other a large industrial ironworks. They have a fallout and a near fatal fight in the half built Crystal Palace in Hyde Park, but they come together for Georges application to the Great Exhibition of 1851. After a brush with royalty it becomes necessary to escape to the new world and lay low for five generations as the enormity of the of their task is revealed. Starting in 2019 it is incumbent on their descendants, two beautiful women, to secretly begin this task.
