Shadows, Trees & Odd Mysteries: Chronicles I-III : Other Realms

by Malcolm Fernandes

"It was noon — bright, blue and dry. Without warning the light shimmered. I could scarcely move but managed to roll my eyes upwards to the heavens, squinting in the glare and gulped. Out from behind the sun emerged a million slithering, black weeds that slowly engulfed it, swallowing its mass, its warmth and with it, its light. The quelling carried on and on until the light from the star coughed and spluttered meekly under layers of squirming grey. The weather dramatically changed right before our eyes and the air turned frigid. Blankets of dark clouds rolled in from across the horizons and now covered the expanse before us in a hellish haze of inky reds and inkier violets...

The year is 1803. Rem Namdliv has spent the last two decades EXPLORING the UNKOWN and recording his ADVENTURES. Of the most PECULIAR of his recordings are the ones that tell of Rem’s repeated encounters with the STRANGE NAYNAB TREES — encounters that he soon found could not only cost him and his friends their LIVES, but possibly the fate of the ENTIRE world!

CHRONICLES I-III — OTHER REALMS is the third book in the Shadows, Trees & Odd Mysteries (STOM) series that follows the ODD occurrences, MYSTERIOUS myths, and TERRIFYING tales that revolve around the little-known Naynab trees.
