Ninja Bread Castles: Fried Windows Series

by Elgon Williams

If you fall through a window, either you shatter it, or it shatters you. Regardless, it’s always a bad choice.Though there may be a good story in it, even when there is no other option, it is never a good idea.

When Brent escapes The Program, he breaks a fundamental law of the a window is a barrier intended to divide not a portal to be transgressed. Windows separate inside from outside. And so, despite having just regathered the fragments of his life, Brent Woods finds himself once again in two pieces. With one part remaining in the world where Sully and Forsythe desperately seek to find and control him, the other winds up in alternate universe New Orleans where the living who need to escape reality coexist with the dead, largely musicians and other creatives who have no intention of moving on to an afterlife in Assembly.

Obviously, Brent’s main objective is to get himself together, but first he must resolve issues lingering from his youth when three of his girlfriends died tragically. Accused of responsibility he must clear his reputation before Plush the Magic Drag Queen, supreme ruler of New Orleans, permits his return to the Outworld. All the while, his other half must escape The Program’s recapture. Straddling two hostile worlds, Brent navigates a minefield of threats and challenges that no one living should ever face.
