I've been dreaming of Pendragon becoming a movie or series since I was a kid. I even sent a very long and detailed email to MacHale once about the idea. It was very passionate lol. Something along the lines of fulfilling my dreams and I would love to portray Courtney. Maybe I could portray one of the moms now? The latest Tweets from D.J. MacHale (@DJMacHale). Author of the Pendragon; Morpheus Road and The SYLO Chronicles book series. Creator of many popular TV shows for young people. Donald James 'D.J.' MacHale (born March 11, 1956) is an American writer, director, and executive producer. He has been affiliated with shows such as Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Flight 29 Down and Seasonal Differences. MacHale is also the author of the popular young adult book series, Pendragon and Morpheus Road.

Pendragon: Journal of an Adventure through Time and Space,^[1] commonly known as Pendragon, is a series of ten young-adultscience fiction and fantasynovels by American author D. J. MacHale, published from 2002 to 2009. The series chronicles the adventures of Bobby Pendragon, an American teenager who discovers that he must travel through time and space to prevent the destruction of the ten 'territories': critical locations throughout the universe. The series has sold over a million copies.^[2]

Each book deals with the battle over a particular territory, fought by Bobby's side against the forces of Saint Dane, a shapeshifting demon, who exploits a decisive turning point for the local people of each territory. At this turning point, Saint Dane steps in to guide the territory towards utter chaos, with Bobby and his allies attempting to stop his efforts.

The novels use a first-person perspective through Bobby's handwritten journal entries, in which he recounts the events of his adventures to his loyal friends back home, Courtney Chetwynde and Mark Dimond, as well as a third-person narrative to tell the stories of characters other than Bobby—often, Courtney and Mark themselves. Each book of the series repeatedly alternates between these two narrative perspectives.^[2]

Publication history[edit]

The first five books in the series, The Merchant of Death (2001), The Lost City of Faar (2001), The Never War (2002), The Reality Bug (2002), and Black Water (2003) were originally published in paperback by Aladdin Paperbacks. In 2004, Black Water made The New York Times' weekly nationwide top-ten list in the category 'Children's Paperback Books,'^[3] and a month later, for the first time, the series as a whole ranked in the category of 'Children's Best Sellers: Series.'^[4] The remaining five books, The Rivers of Zadaa (2005), The Quillian Games (2006), The Pilgrims of Rayne (2007), Raven Rise (2008), and The Soldiers of Halla (2009) were all originally published in hardback by Simon & Schuster. As of 2011, all books have been released in both formats.

A graphic novelization of The Merchant of Death was also released around the time of the ninth book. The tenth and final novel, The Soldiers of Halla, was released on May 12, 2009. A prequel trilogy created by MacHale but authored by other writers has also been published, collectively called Pendragon: Before the War.

Plot overview[edit]

Robert 'Bobby' Pendragon is an everyday athletic junior high school student from (fictional) Stony Brook, Connecticut, located in the greater New York metropolitan area. Bobby's Uncle Press reveals that he will train Bobby to become one of the 'Travelers': wormhole-journeying young warriors from a variety of different planets and cultures,^[5] who are tasked with stopping or reversing the destruction being caused by the demon Saint Dane. Saint Dane plans to destroy 'what separates order from chaos'—the very fabric and structure of the universe, known as 'Halla'^[6]—so that he can rebuild it according to his own twisted design. Uncle Press, the lead Traveler, introduces Bobby to the 'flumes,' enchanted tubes used by Travelers to journey among the ten 'territories', which are especially eventful locations and time-periods in the universe. Press explains that Bobby is a resident and designated Traveler of the territory known as 'Second Earth,' which means planet Earth (especially centering on New York City) during the early 2000s (the present moment at the time of the series' publication).

Most of the novels in the series are structured around a similar basic conflict: as one of Halla's ten territories reaches a crucial turning point, in which its people must make a critical global decision for their future, Saint Dane arrives, hoping to lead the people towards self-destruction, especially through cultural homogenization, social inequality, discrimination, and totalitarianism.^[7] Bobby must then travel to each threatened territory to thwart Saint Dane's plans, sending journals back home (to Second Earth) to be received and kept safe by his best friends, Mark Dimond and Courtney Chetwynde, who become sometimes involved with the action and are deemed Bobby's 'acolytes': personal helpers and record-keepers along Bobby's journey. There is one Traveler from each territory, and Bobby cooperates with all ten along his journey. Throughout the series, Saint Dane often confronts Bobby personally and asks him to join his side, but Bobby consistently refuses.

Bobby soon realizes his central role in the battle for Halla: that he is to replace his uncle as the lead Traveler, pursuing Saint Dane and helping to guide the territories back toward stability with the assistance of the other Travelers, their acolytes, and further allies. The turning points of the ten territories, in order, occur on: the medieval wilds of Denduron; the ocean-wide planet of Cloral; First Earth (the approximate time and location of the 1937 Hindenburg disaster); the virtual-reality wastelands of Veelox; the rainforests of Eelong; the deserts of Zadaa; the corporate monopoly-controlled arenas of Quillan; the semi-civilized island of Ibara (located on the planet Veelox, though 300 years after the 'Veelox' territory); Second Earth; and, lastly, Third Earth (New York City in the year 5010).^[8]

Along his journeys, Bobby also learns martial arts, sometimes even dueling with Saint Dane one-on-one. Bobby also comes to respect the diverse peoples of Halla, who wildly differ in their social structures, technologies, philosophies, traditions, and other cultural aspects. He also has to adapt to each territory's environment in order to be ready to confront Saint Dane at a moment's notice. Bobby gradually learns the nature of what it really means to be a Traveler, first hinted at when Saint Dane confusingly begins referring to the Travelers as 'illusions.' Saint Dane's long-term strategy also eventually surfaces, centering on a mysterious event called 'the Convergence,' in which the territories' turning points all begin to coincide, potentially causing an escalating chain reaction of chaos throughout Halla.^[9] Matters worsen when the Traveler from Quillan, named Nevva Winter, treacherously defects to Saint Dane's side. Meanwhile, the Convergence begins causing some territories to undergo a devastating and unanticipated second turning point.

By the ninth book, Bobby and his friends have successfully prevented the destruction of five territories, but they have failed in their fight against Saint Dane on Second Earth, Veelox, Ibara, and Quillan. Even worse, by taking over Second Earth, Saint Dane manages to reverse all previous Traveler victories, by him being able to control what time he enters the flumes, establishing an elitist and genocidalcult called Ravinia, which openly marches its robot army of humanoid soldiers, 'dados,' throughout the territories, thus freely breaking down the boundaries between the territories. In the tenth and final book, Bobby finally learns about the true nature of Travelers: that he and the others are not actually humans at all, but rather, human-shaped guardian spirits created by something called Solara: the accumulated living energy of all positive sentient knowledge and creativity. Contrarily, Saint Dane is a spirit arisen from the dark antithesis of Solara. Reuniting one last time, Bobby and the Travelers confront Saint Dane in a final battle on Third Earth in order to begin Halla's process toward recovery at last.^[10]

The creator, Writer and Producer Donald James Machale who is popularly know as D.J. MacHale grew up in Greenwich, Connecticut where he was born in March 11, 1955. In Greenwich, he finished High School while having several jobs which included poultry farm work where he collected eggs, cleaning the dishes in a steakhouse and he also did engraving of sports trophies. That he did along side other activities like playing football and spending time running track. After high School D.J. MacHale then got his BFA in film production from the after graduating from New York University.At present, he lives with his better half Evangeline and Daughter Keaton in Manhattan Beach, California.

Before D.J. MacHale really got his big break in both Movie, Television and writing, he started out as In New York non-agent writer/director and spent time making videos for businesses and commercials for television. Along side this job, he also taught film production and photography.

What is ironic however for this truly gifted and brilliant writer is that he never enjoyed writing until college where his screenwriting teacher changed his perspective. according to him, before he became a producer of television series, a director or even a writer, he devoured books from Dr. Seuss, where he got his silly. He also savored the works of Ian Flemming and Alistair McLean which is probably the reason why loved thrillers as a genre. D.J. Machale has been affiliated with several television shows such are “Are you Afraid of the Dark?” where he came up with 91 episodes for eight years,earning him the Gemini Award, “Seasonal Differences” and “Flight 29 Down” where he wrote all episodes and directed some of them. This also secured the Writers Guild of America Award for him for Outstanding Children’s Script and a nomination for the Award under the Directors Guild of America. Also got the nomination for cable ace for a book series Encyclopedia Brown.

At age 9 D.J. MacHale wrote his first ever science fiction story about a journey to the stars, which he said nobody ever read, which probably is the reason why he never really liked writing in the first place. A Documentary about fermentation was his first video ever produced. His first paid fiction work he was paid was a kids TV special called “The Great American Music Video. His first paid video produced was for a Public Service Announcement warning about Parvo-Virus in dogs and the dangers that came with it.

Like so many college students, he went through a career crisis, pretty much not knowing exactly what to pursue. A friend made him realize again that he loves film making. He then moved from Villanova University, to New York University and he took up film as a major. His first work from School was for a small company in the same city that made and sponsored films for corporations.

His notable credits include “ABC after school Specials” which includes the classic “Seasonal Differences” and the pilot for the long-running series “Ghostwriter” with Samuel L. Jackson. Kristen Dunst and fellow actor Steve Guttenberg also worked with D.J. MacHale when he created and at the same time directed movie “Tower of Terror”

D.J. Machale started to write the “Pendragon” novels while waiting for a for a decision about a pilot episode of a series. He wrote while he waited and eventually resulted to the success of the book series.

Emails which he sent to love ones to let them know what is happening or what has happened in his day to day life became the inspiration for the book. From this idea came the birth of Bobby’s journal, a nerd who becomes a hero in another world along with Mark a reluctant thinker who tends to over analyze and frets but who has a romantic side as well and Courtney who tends to always seize the day, take charge and live in the moment.

Among the books in the series includes “The Merchant of Death” the first book of the series. This is where Bobby gets to shout Denduron for the first time and they were transported there. This is where he meets for the first time, Saint Dane, the villain whose goal is to break the barriers between the ten territories of Halla.

“I felt as if I learned a few things. I learned that it’s sometimes okay to think like a weenie, so long as you don’t act like one—at least not all the time. I learned that it’s okay to be wrong, as long as you can admit it and are willing to listen to those who may know better.” –D.J. MacHale, “The Merchant of Death”

“The Lost City of Faar” is the sequel, where most of the events took place in Cloral, a planet covered in water. The people here lived in barges and it was a very nice place until Saint Dane unleashed a poison that makes the plants grow large and fatal.

“In my few short years I learned that seeing what’s positive about a situation is a lot more fun and gets you a lot further than looking for what might be wrong with it.” –D.J. MacHale, “The Merchant of Death”

D.J. MacHale as a writer also made collaborations with other people. One of his own teleplay was used as the foundation of his work called “The Tale of the Nightly Neighbors” which he co-wrote with another writer. He also had a hand on the poetic version of the classic “East of the Sun West of the Moon” a Norwegian folk tale.

Overall, D.J. MacHale as a brilliant and gifted writer and producer capable of getting inspiration from even the most innocent things around him and making his own original work but at the same time, he can also work with other people and the existing works of other people, a true sign that there are no boundaries for D.J. MacHale when it comes to writing, creating and producing.

There are several books coming from D.J. MacHale that we need to look forward to which are to be published by Simon & Schuster under a new agreement. this would include a fantasy oriented series called “The Equinox Curiosity Shop”, “The Monster Princess”his first picture book about an ugly princess who wants to become beautiful and of course “The Morpheus Road” which is a trilogy.
