The Shade

The damned roam undetected below our feet. Once a distinguished, high ranking tier nine angel, Lucifer challenges the vision of the Upper Levels. Before a rebellion can be formed, Lucifer is banished, plummeting to the center of the Earth.

Lucifer forms a lava oasis, which descends nine levels deep. In this new world he creates an army of hellions, renounces his former identity and stands as Abaddon.

Valafar has been in his service since the beginning and millenniums later, it is his turn to prove himself worthy of being Realm Lord of level Four. Before doing so, he is released from the hell-mouth with the task of dragging a soul back with him.

Thinking himself triumphant, Valafar's intended victim becomes his greatest folly. Kai's soul has been stolen, but his body remains. Without a soul and not quite dead, Kai lives on, as a shade.

Seventy-five years have passed since the birth of his new life. Kai seeks a quiet existence with the possibility of the human interaction he has been without. But Kai is not the only supernatural being to reside within the sleepy town of Madeira Park.

Keetes is the best friend to Riley, the town's fire cracker and hot mouth. Meeting at night classes and sharing a mutual love of art, Kai's connection to Riley is undeniable. Riley is unaffected by any form of compulsion thanks to a shield her unaware clairvoyant friend has placed and she is a puzzle that Keetes has grown bored of trying to solve. It's time to change her.

Unwilling to let Keetes turn Riley, Kai is forced to reveal his unequalled skill. As he is thrust onto a wooden spike and lit aflame, Keetes vows to seek out Kai's maker from within the Lower Levels and make him pay.
It is only a matter of weeks before Keetes will find Valafar and when he does, a whole army of hellions will be sent to wreak havoc on the disobedient shade. The only hope Kai has is seeking out the phantom Unholy Priest.

"What will be able to do?" Riley asked.

"Show me the hell mouth entrance."

"And then what?"

"I go in and retrieve my soul. With my soul, I am human."

About the Author

I was starting to freak out when I turned twenty-three. I had not done any post secondary education because there was nothing I knew for certain I could love being for all my life.

I've kind of always been one of those people who is good at everything and excellent at nothing.

I finally realized that my mind wouldn't rest until I did something about the stories in my head; I would dream about my stories, obsess over them on days off and vacation time. It FELT like I was already doing it full time outside my normal 40 hours. That is when I made the transition.

I really love writing dark epic fiction with an unexpected twist but I am also very into writing non-fiction too.

The Shade and The Nine Lower Levels will be the first of at least three books and The Shade and The Unholy Priest will be released around Jan/Feb 2012.

On a side note, I have a trucker mouth, crazy hair colors and an eclectic sense of self.
