Of Myth and Men: The White Night, Volume I & 2

 

The one myth to bind them all <™>

“Of Myth and Men: The White Night is a true fantasy epic, sweeping in scope but with an emotional integrity and a classic message of love, forgiveness, redemption that matches the significance of any classic of the genre. Mythologies from across the ages are skillfully and imaginatively rewritten and incorporated into a complex and fascinating alternative history, as well as a modern-day fight to the death between good and evil. If this sounds typical to you, you are in for a treat, because this is actually a fresh new take on ancient ideas and fantasy genre conventions. It's a must-read for fantasy aficionados.” ~ Allister Thompson, author, former senior editor of Dundurn Press, and editor of award-winning novels

SYNOPSIS:

Long ago, Mortals and Mystics lived together in harmony in the City of Peace, Los Paché. But on a fateful eve, all that was would no longer be. A malevolent soul fathered the Cult of the Nosferatu — vampires — the vilest of beasts to devour the Mortal breed. His treachery inflamed the ire of men, and hellish wars ensued. Defeated, Mystics were forced into a life of solitude.

It is now 2020. The world is in grave peril. Veiled by shadow, the Nosferatu prey upon Mortals once again.

Sunlight is the only force that can destroy the Nosferatu.

Elijah Ra, the Ikon of Light, is like a sun that walks in the night. He is a being that wields sunlight who has set out on a secret quest to eradicate the living dead. United with Elijah are Seth the Sun Demon, Damon the Dread, and Kaji Imitsu, who share a singular hope: to raise Los Paché from the dead.

Yet the Father of the Nosferatu has returned. The tyrant has set his dark eyes upon the greatest evil ever known. And should it be freed, it will mark the end of history.

Amidst the impending gloom there remains a spark of hope. For the fate of all creation may rest upon the shoulders of a little boy.

ABOUT THE STORY:

This epic chronicle reminds us that family is often found in the most unlikely of places." ~ Britanie Wilson, author, editor (fantasy)
