With more than 160,000 readers of the Mark of Odin saga around the world, Xavier Marcé has become one of the leading authors in transmedia narrative and self-publishing. His 23 years in the video game industry as a journalist, editor, communication manager, online marketing and Community Manager give him a unique vision of the sector and the management of media and communities.
With the release of 'The Stone Lotus' in Spanish in 2022, my first independent thriller novel after the Mark of Odin saga, that I have written and published, I start what I expect to become a great literary universe of books where all stories will be connected in a way or another, no matter they belong to different universes or realities.
Independent publisher and writer who has published and manages at all levels the transmedia literary saga of Mark of Odin, which has almost 160,000 readers between print and digital editions, as well as ebook downloads on major digital platforms such as Google Play Books, Amazon Kindle or Apple Books.

As well as high-caliber Spanish professionals such as the illustrator and sculptor Manu Nieto, the special effects composer Manuel Rico or the compositor and singer Milena Brody, among others.
Formed by veterans of Funcom and Artplant, Megapop Games, seeks to combine all the experience of great professionals by applying it in the universe of video game entertainment for mobile devices and PC, as well as digitization in apps for all types of companies.
