Who Is Marion E. Jones?
Marion E. Jones is a K9 handler, Behavior Detection Officer, and author best known for the six-book Golden Feather Saga. The series has sold a great number of copies and has been adapted into an audiobook and multiple e-book translations.
Early Life Jones was born 1975, in Brooklyn, New York. His early years were rough, exposing him to drugs, alcohol and gun violence. Jones adopted the pen name Marion Jones because it was a unisex name. A graduate of Atlantic City High School, Jones spent time with the military, was a blackjack dealer for three years, and worked on stage, film and commercials before moving to California in 2001 to continue his acting career. There, Jones met, married, and divorced a school teacher. They had two amazing children. Seven years after the marriage ended, Jones moved to Crestline, CA with a new fiancé. While struggling to support the two children and a new home, Jones worked on the first book in the series. The idea for the book reportedly occurred while watching two movies; Legion and the Twilight series.
Books
After a number of rejections from publishers, Jones finally self-published the first novel, The Order of the Golden Feather. It hit shelves in 2017. The story is squeaky clean and fun for all ages. The book was the start of a six-book series chronicling the life of Mariana the archangel who had a forbidden love affair with a human in danger.
'Clipped Angels' The second book in the Golden Feather series, Clipped Angels, came out in summer 2018.
'Black Feather' The third book in Jones' series, Black Feather, hit shelves in Winter 2019. By the following summer, the first three books were available as e-books, in Spanish and English. (Jones released the first three books as a trilogy for $1 to give poor people the opportunity to enjoy his books during the tough economic times.)
'Perfect Chaos ' The phenomenal response to Jones' books culminated in January 2020, when the fourth volume in the series, Perfect Chaos, depicted the transition from angel to human. The novel saw an audiobook in Summer 2020. It was spicier than the previous books and written more for adults. With topics like marriage, career and pregnancy, it was not written for ten-year olds.
'Perfect Chaos 2' After a postponed release date, the fifth installment, Perfect Chaos 2, hit bookstores in April 2020, right after COVID-19 closed the world down.
'Perfect Chaos 3' The sixth installment, released in July 2020, had a slow start in sales. This was the dramatic conclusion to the Golden Feather Saga.
'Elven Moon' Jones started a new series! This is the first trilogy that he has written for the Disney Fanbase. Jones hoped that enough fans will raise enough noise that the studios would offer a movie deal. Fingers crossed. Elven moon tells a tale of a princess who is being hunted by her mother and eventually must confront her. Jones does not plan to write any more books in fantasy after this series, although he has not entirely ruled out the possibility.
