Excerpt from book 5:
Before I knew what was happening, she had turned and slammed into me. A chill ran up my spine when I saw why. I could barely believe my own eyes as I was for a moment transported back in time.
There in the doorway, a decaying woman dressed in sodden costume reached out an arm that carried with it a pungent stench. From behind the door frame, a dozen others did the exact same, surrounding her in a sea of outstretched limbs intent on ferrying our lives away.

Book 5 is Finished

Book 5 of my Dark Fantasy epic Worlds Beyond Scripture is finished and being primed for release! To help celebrate I'll be running a number of promotions as counting down the days. There will be a cover reveal coming up and also a potential book signing (pandemic permitting). Please subscribe to join in the fun! 

Excerpt

On a dark night, down a dark street, she travels alone. Her footsteps fall hard off a dead air as she turns along the alleyway. Heels in motion, she pulls her coat closed around her to shield away a chill rain on this unseasonably cold, September night.

The woman stops suddenly and looks around, thinking she has heard something. Yet nothing is there to be found; just a wild imagination running away with her.

She turns back around and he’s there, standing right in front of her.

She shudders. Yet, a glance of his uniform is all that it takes to tell her she has nothing to dread.

A raise of her head allows that eyes meet. Now face to face, caught in the icy grip of a solemn stare.

It all happens in an instant.

He moves on her faster than human sight might see. There is no struggling. In her mind she’s still locked into his gaze, long watching him as caught in this moment, and unable a look away…

It’s better this way.

As the flood of her life enters his mouth, he swallows it in with such satisfaction. The monster must feed, and feed he will. To quell this thirst stirring from within—a longing he cannot hope to escape—that he is made to obey. The haunting of a curse delivered upon him is more a kind of master he is incapable of being rid of. He is a victim to his prey as laid in servitude to the need, for so long he can’t quite remember.

Her body drops to the ground, dead. As he mourns his very existence, a solitary blood tear runs down the length of his cheek, and falls away. Must he go through this nightly torture for all eternity, he asks again to no one—as he has done a thousand times before—and receives the very same reply. With not the return of a word spoken, he knows all too well: it is as it has been and always will be, forevermore. He is forsaken.

“Oh, wretched thing that stalks the night, why does he suffer so?”

The sudden emergence of a haunting voice enters from an adjacent avenue, filtering through the corridor, as if sneaking up from behind upon the unsuspecting party.

“Scavenging on the scraps of insolvent souls…”

Raised by his Mothers on the principles of the Goddess, but not one to believe, Ambrosia longs for the day when he can free himself of faith completely. Rituals of invocation, tales of reincarnation, dimensional coalescence, spirits and the astral plane... he never felt or saw anything during these teachings, and certainly nothing that he would consider proof of the lore, which brought him to the logical conclusion that there is truly nothing else out there--merely works of fiction.

Yet all things change when Mona, a family friend he's never met before, offers to grant his wish and take him far away from there. It's only after arriving in the strange new place and leaving his one true home behind, that he is made to open his eyes.

Either magic exists and the myths are real, or he's lost his mind completely.

It all starts with a girl and a dream...

Time is running out.

The sands fast slip through the hourglass. Can Regina solve the mystery of the voices haunting him? Or will Ambrosia fall victim to the night of thinnest veil, propelled further down the spiral that ends in a complete breakdown of his reality? To provoke the spirit world means to suffer a mind of madness, still the runes foretell a choice to be made...

Ambrosia wakes to find he has survived the night... Or has he?


Honestly, he doesn't know and can't remember how he got in his bed, or any other happenings having transpired since taking the elixir the night before. The world he now finds himself in is one of chaos, being ripped apart by natural disaster, while at home a terror erupts in the Hartland with people gone missing and a new set of grisly murders. To make matters worse, there's something the matter in his mind; constant flashes plague thoughts run amok, making fractured images appear that he can't quite grasp hold of. Lucid dreams won't let him be and follow him around in a house that at times seems itself alive.

Unsure of what to think, Ambrosia seeks out those closest to him: companions who would help, and the solace of a lover’s open arms. She means everything to him, so why does he feel that he just can't hold on? There are still many things he does not yet know, but with every moment he's getting closer to discovering the truth. What answers will he find there appearing on the other side?

His Mothers Four have been keeping a secret...


With the lines between reality and dreams collapsing, Ambrosia learns about a past he can't remember and didn't know was forgotten, while the fragile balance of a planet and a soul is riddled by chaotic events and tragedy. In the fourth installment of the Worlds Beyond Scripture series, our protagonist is off to Europe to meet Regina and discover the meaning of the words haunting him. Will she be able to help solve the mystery? Or will he succumb to the presence following him before he ever reaches her?
