Falling World

Patrick Merrick

A man traverses a world fraught with visceral and psychological perils, searching for a woman about to give birth to the demons of the apocalypse.

 

As the lands of Lowworld succumb to war, famine and plague, two men appear and wreak a path of death and destruction; a mortally wounded prisoner displays miraculous healing abilities; a woman in white haunts the nocturnal hours and woman at the edge of the world approaches the delivery of her demon progeny. The paths are set. The apocalypse is coming. CROW HREIDAR is to be the savior of his world... or its damnation. He has never known this is his destiny, but after twenty seven years of life, after love and loss, after death and resurrection, he suddenly finds himself awash in an ocean of manipulation by forces beyond his comprehension as he holds in his hands the fate of the world which took from him everything he ever knew or loved.

You have a way with words my friend. I can see you're style falls into the realm of literary fiction compared to commercial. Hope to see more.
