To the Readers:

As I've said countless times before, thank you so much for reading this series everyone. I hope you liked the story and grew to love the main characters as much as I did. Special thanks go to the people whose OC's were casted for this story: Condor-K (Desmond), FantaticRhapsody (David), Mistycharming (Alex), and ImaSupernaturalCSI (Hannah). You guys were all awesome and I loved working with you to bring your Rangers to life. Of course, I can't forget any others who simply read, left a review, contributed a minor character, or made great suggestions along the way too.

Oceania was my experiment at writing a series that was a little more character driven. I like to jokingly refer to it as what you get when you cross Power Rangers with Hawaii Five-O and a little bit of Baywatch thrown in on the side. Whereas the driving force of my Vanguard series was an ancient epic conflict between angels and demons, the heart of Oceania was more in the strength of the bonds and relationships that formed between the heroes. Each of them were adults who came from very different walks of life, but they grew into a close knit family as a result of their shared growth and experience along the way.

Oceania also gave me a chance to touch a little more on some challenges an "adult" hero might face, such as learning to move forward from a tragic past like Desmond and Alex, growing up and taking responsibility like Hannah, balancing obligations to family with your own personal interests like Naomi, or showing compassion and mercy to sworn enemies like David did.

In the case of Cam, I chose him as a sort of unofficial viewpoint character because there's a lot we can learn from his experience. Like him, this series thrust us into the completely new setting of Hawaii where we didn't know a thing about the language, the people, or the culture. By learning to fit in and love the islands, Cameron came to appreciate a whole new perspective and way of life, and I hope you did too. The Pacific Islands are rich with culture, mythology, and spirituality which I feel isn't always given much attention in fiction. Hopefully the series taught you a thing or two because I know I certainly learned a lot.

Looking ahead, I'll be starting a new series featuring Irish and Celtic mythology. After I take a nice long break, I'll try to start posting the first chapters to that series in late September. Again, it's going to be a very different and experimental series so if you're interested, be sure to keep an eye out for PR: Hibernian Knights coming soon. Hope to see you then!
