A new power is rising in Shreveport, escalating tensions between Shade and Illumin. Every Shade in the city feels this shift and works to carve out their own section in the new order. The Raven family unites against their growing enemies to prepare for the upcoming war. Still recovering from the wounds of betrayal, the Ravens wrestle with painful memories of their losses, set aside old feuds, and reforge their alliance with the Illumin. In the end, all may succumb to this powerful force that threatens the city.
In the second installment of the Shadeskin Anthology, two authors interlace stories of ancient beings and their impact on the human race set against the backdrop of a Louisiana city.
Born and raised in northwest Louisiana, Jason did very little to escape the area outside of writing about fantastical worlds. He is a legitimate nerd who enjoys PC gaming, arguing about time paradoxes, and the indomitable table-top game, Warhammer 40K. One day he plans to have his entire Tau Empire army fully painted.
He currently resides in Shreveport, Louisiana and is employed as a full-time computer programmer to support his writing and nerd habits. You can catch him on the interwebs by his super-awesome handle, VigRoco. Challenge him to a StarCraft II match, and he will gracefully lose to you.
