Bio:
His
debut novel, The Darkening Dream, fuses intense action with a love of history and
all things supernatural. On the eve before creation God created ten special
things, among them the Archangel Gabriel’s horn, destined to sound the End of
Days. But what happens if you’re a seventeen year-old girl and an ancient evil
thinks it’s hidden in your basement?
His
second novel Untimed, chronicles the crazy adventures of a boy no one remembers, who falls
through a hole in time and finds himself lost in the past.
About The Darkening Dream:
As the modern world establishes itself and pushes the
supernatural into the shadows, the supernatural fights back.
An ominous vision
and the discovery of a gruesome corpse lead seventeen year-old Sarah Engelmann
into a terrifying encounter with the supernatural in 1913 Salem, Massachusetts.
With help from
Alex, an attractive Greek immigrant, Sarah sets out to track the evil to its
source, never guessing that she will take on a conspiracy involving not only a
900-year vampire, but also a demon-loving Puritan warlock, disgruntled Egyptian
gods, and an immortal sorcerer, all on a quest to recover the holy trumpet of
the Archangel Gabriel. Relying on the wisdom of an elderly vampire hunter,
Sarah’s rabbi father, and her own disturbing visions, Sarah must fight a
millennia-old battle between unspeakable forces, where the ultimate prize might
be herself.
Long-time
readers of dark historical fantasy (Tim Powers, Guy Gavriel Kay, Katherine
Kurtz) will appreciate the weaving together of mythology, occult, and religion,
while younger readers and fans of HBO dramas (True Blood, Carnivàle)
or urban fantasy (Laurell K. Hamilton, Kim Harrison, Jim Butcher) will be drawn
to the twisted imagination, graphic action, and romantic tension.
