When you die, you die alone and so begins a journey into the unknown, where the decisions in life will guide your fate in death...
Beneath the swirl of an overcast sky is the mysterious world of Limbo, an afterlife for people who die before their time, a place that mirrors our own. Where sinners and saints walk side by side in a land of extremes. For Limbo is nestled between the everlasting light of Heaven by day and the eternal cruel darkness of Hell by night.
And within the domain of this bizarre setting only one species from Earth dwells, the children of Adam, the only creature on Earth capable of sin, man.
...So consider this; how far would you go to change the destiny of a sinner, if it was someone you loved, and what would be the ultimate price for their redemption?
Richard Coiley published his first novel, Limbo in April 2012 and his second, Purging Paradise in February 2013. He's also an artist and has always had a passion for the creative side of life.
He has interests in Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror, as well as a love of film across a spectrum of genres.
Not being a big reader growing up and enjoying films and T.V shows more, he has a more visual approach to his story telling.
Richard finds he likes having a certain amount of naivety when writing, as this encourages creativity and allows his imagination to get carried away, opening up fun possibilities for his work.
At the moment, this is only a hobby and he likes that way, being able to work without the pressure of deadlines and only releasing something when he deems it ready.
Wow, where to begin. I read a lot and this was by far the worst book I've read in ages. I'm shocked that this managed to gather 4 positive reviews on amazon, because unlike some books that I don't care for but can see how someone might, this one had no redeeming qualities whatsoever. So much so that it was probably the most impressive thing about it, just its sheer crappiness. Coiley might have had been under the impression that he had the imagination to cobble this idea together, but certainly not even a hint of skill to execute it. The writing was so amateur, so intelligence insultingly terrible. The plot was...imagine if the movies Prophecy and What Dreams May Come had a severely mentally retarded child and it was turned from a movie into a book by someone phenomenally inept and untalented and you'll get the idea. For dealing with such lofty themes and such a supposedly epic love story, Limbo had some spectacularly uninspired writing, aside from love scenes, which were uninspired covered with roll your eyes cheesiness. Kindle is a genius invention, but the downside is that crap like this gets published and floats around. Unless used as a literary how not to manual, this was a total waste of time.
