EDEN’S SHADOW
It ain’t Eden. Sure, it’s got trees and birds and rivers and all that nature has to offer. But there is no sign of civilization. And no answers to why they are there.
Charles and his companions simply wake up in log cabins in the middle of a vast wilderness. There are no roads, no planes in the sky, and not even a speck of trash in the streams. To survive, they must relearn what their generation has long forgotten—how to live with nothing but nature for support.
And then there are those strange phenomena hovering overhead. What are they doing there and what is their connection to their predicament? Charles is determined to find out, and if whoever is responsible for this dim shadow of Eden has harmed his family, there will be hell to pay.
CADAVER SWORDS
Peace is for the living.
A vast story charged with electricity, action and necromancy, with morally realistic, lovable characters. -Reedsy Discovery
Chimber was a master grave digger and knew his business. But when the Queen of the nation of Dalmeer called out the Gravedigger’s Guild to bury thousands of citizens that had perished from a mysterious poison-laced cloud, he was not prepared for what he found.
Before his very eyes, bodies thought dead began to rise up, walk, and huddle together in dark groups. Soon, an unstoppable cadaver army was laying waste to the land.
With the good people of Dalmeer under siege and the army in disarray, Chimber wants to do his part to defend his home town. But as a gravedigger, he isn’t usually needed until after the killing is done. As he watches a battle unfold from the cover of a nearby hill, an unflappable female warrior gets felled from her horse by a mob of cadavers. Risking life and limb, he slides down to the battlefield and manages to save her life.
Chimber and the warrior establish a bond and agree to journey into the Northern Wastes to find the one being that may be able to save the nation—the mysterious Medium of the Blue Mountain. But she is surrounded by a strange tribe of female ice pixies that have little interest in helping those from the southern lands.
If Chimber can convince the Medium of the Blue Mountain to join their cause and return to Dalmeer’s capital city in time, they just may save the people of the land from the bite of cadaver swords.
