What Will You Discover Between the Darkness and the Light?
When the mortal coil wears thin and the great unknown draws nigh you might spy the narrow gap between the mystical and the mundane. You might even notice something’s looking back.
Transcendence takes a hard look at humanity in nine tales of difficult choices, great rewards, and journeys beyond expectation.
- In Skippy, Don does not like what he sees in the mirror…but will he survive it?
- A Fury finds form—and retribution—in The Kindly One.
- If I Had the Chance takes do-overs to a new level.
- Aisa has a death-ly choice to make in The Misses Moirai.
- Ruby Red sweeps you away in a dance on the edge of madness.
- Purgatory is when you think you’re damned…hell is when you are right…
- Fredrich tries to drown his sorrows in Stoli and Solitude.
- For Camirel finding purpose means total transformation in Emberling.
- Transcendence…where you look into the heart of a star and find yourself.
The extraordinary awaits… will you step beyond the bounds of commonplace existence?
