"This is a fast-paced, exciting book that keeps you guessing until the very end.
THIS BRILLIANT DARKNESS is a smart, karmic mystery populated by lovable brainy characters.
Dive into This Brilliant Darkness, and follow the journeys of these characters, from Britain to the Heartland, from January's snowfall to Halloween's costumed festivities. Will he go through with his grisly plan of murder and destruction?Īnd what of these other characters-an aging physicist of ill-repute, a stubborn monk who takes his vow of silence too far, and a time-shifting star visible only from Bloomington? What a tangled web we weave, when monsters practice to deceive. When he zeroes in on Christine Grace, he experiences second thoughts for the first time in millenia. Greachin is an age-old being so tortured by his own karmic cycle that he no longer knows how to connect, except to identify potential threats through the cosmic ripples of space. So, really, why does she suddenly start imagining things in the window's reflection? Is time truly starting and stopping all around her, or is she inexplicably cracking up? Her live-in boyfriend presses her for marriage, but she's too philosophically inclined to take an interest. How will it end? It's anyone's guess, in a book that keeps you turning pages, racing to find out what will happen next.Ĭhristine Grace finds her predictable scholarly life comforting, if a bit boring. Nothing is as it seems to be, and no one behaves in ways characters are "supposed" to act. That's THIS BRILLIANT DARKNESS, the top-rated dark fantasy debut novel by the author of TROLL OR DERBY, Red Tash. Pondering big picture questions like "Why am I here?" and "Does Love Conquer All?" has never been so fun. Imagine if the writers of Northern Exposure sat down with Stephen King and decided to craft a dark fantasy thriller starring absent-minded academians, every day goofballs, and a dark fantasy creature for good measure. A small Indiana town with a soul of its own.
