All signs suggest this is fabricated as my searches found absolutely nothing for this rarely edited article since November 2006. . SwisterTwister   talk  18:01, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. The chances of verifying the content appear remote. Charles Matthews (talk) 19:42, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Appears to be a hoax. No Google hits found for The Legend of the Power with the name Stiehl outside of this article. No listing in Google Books or WorldCat. An 80-chapter novel that led to a screenplay and a short story collection based on its characters would surely attract notice somewhere. Calamondin12 (talk) 20:05, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as a hoax. No trace of either the "author" or the "novel" anywhere. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:38, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment: It may not be a hoax per se - this might be a case of someone trying to add their book to Wikipedia. Basically, what I'm thinking is that this isn't a hoax but a self-published novel that was never published through the more mainstream methods like CreateSpace. It also might have been something that someone wrote on their own but then never actually went and self-published, which also tends to happen a lot on here. However those things said, hoax or not, I'm not really seeing any sources at all so I'm going to go ahead and snow close this one. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  03:46, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
