Meet Caleb from A Hidden Element!

By Donna Galanti

I’m on blog tour all this month for the release of A HIDDEN ELEMENT chatting about mind control, cults, and men in black. Here’s two interviews I did with my main character, Caleb Madroc. He started as a side character, I quickly fell in love with him, and he took main stage!

But before we do, I wanted to share that both books in The Element Trilogy are already Amazon Kindle best sellers in science fiction, paranormal suspense, and occult!

And now for Caleb, my sexy tormented hero…

Meet Caleb at Books for Paranormal & Mystic Minds

Thank you so for this interview, Caleb. Now that the book has been written, can you tell us how your friends see you?

What friends? I have none. I’ve lived a life of solitude ever since my father stole me away to this community he created. Except for the occasional night of passion, I’ve not connected with another. Even before we moved here, I was an outcast. The other kids thought I was weak because I used my powers to heal, not to hurt. They just didn’t understand me. I didn’t fit in there, and I don’t fit in here. I fit in nowhere.

What is your most prized possession? Why?

There are two things that I can never have, yet cherish the most–my twin sons. They are five years old now and were born in our community where they are raised by the masses. I cannot be with them but every day I whisper their names out loud as an offering for some higher power to answer my prayer to be with them. Someday I will become my own master and take my sons away from this place. But if I try and fail—they will die. If my father discovers my plan—they will die. I am destined to be alone, but I am fine with that if someday my sons can have a normal life. The scars of not knowing them are seared on my heart. (Interview cont’d) READ MORE

Meet Caleb at Beyond The Books:

Thank you so for this interview, Caleb. Now that the book has been written, do you feel you were fairly portrayed or would you like to set anything straight with your readers?

I am not as saintly as the author makes me out to be. I train our community to kill people with their minds, and I cannot save all the lost souls hurt by my father’s oppression. I should do more to escape his evil rule, and stop him! He believes I’m weak and I can never be as strong as he, and I think he may be right. But I should still try to stop him, even while he threatens to kill my sons if I don’t obey him! And I know I’m weak, because I’ve never tried to stop my father’s hateful leadership because he is my father. Even while I hate him, part of me still loves him and yearns for his fatherly love that I once had as a child.

Do you have a love interest in the book?

In my community we are forced to breed as dictated by my father. This sickens me and so for years I pretended to be impotent, but lost my will just once at nineteen. She had been such a beautiful, sweet female. Rachel was her name and she pleased me across a sea of soft nights. I fell in love with her from that first night, possessing her body, soul, and mind. But our bond was soon severed. She was sent to mate with another…and then another and another. But she was already pregnant then with our twins I would never know, raised by a community of women. And I would never get to touch her again, until the day I led her to her death. You can read about my first love interest before I came to Oregon in The Dark Inside. (Interview cont’d) READ MORE

    Thanks Catherine – poor Caleb indeed! Maybe he’ll make it in the next novel and find love. Or maybe not!
