"Shhh....you'll wake the Clouds...." In a world when the apocalypse has begun and humanity is endangered. Odd and unlikely heroes must rise up to face this great threat... However, the apocalypse wasn't started by an outbreak of zombies or the discovery of super-powered vampires. It was, strangely enough, caused by clouds. And to make matters worse, Man has no way to fight clouds, so they took to living underground. In fact, the new generation has almost never seen what it's like above-ground. So the question remains... Will humanity fight to reclaim their once beloved home? Or will they submit to the clouds and live underground for all eternity? Remember... Nothing is as it seems...

So much for an easy way to go. After thirty nine long years, each squandered day chained inexorably and uneventfully to the next, this is how it ends. How appropriate. Blinking back tears, Joanna shakes out another handful of pills into the palm of her hand... Environmental catastrophe, dismissed by many as myth or propaganda, is now an impending reality. Tides are rising and storms are brewing. Meanwhile, in a small-town suburban home, a small family is fraying at the seams, and on the brink of a collapse of their own. Following the suicide of his wife and imprisoned by grief, Arnold witnesses the inexorable downwards spiral of his neighbourhood on television, from the confines of his living room. Fifty years on, his son Noah is thrust into a dense, compact Britain he hardly recognizes, adrift in a society in the throes of transformation. Years later, the experiment falters and Nature threatens to take over entirely. Noah’s daughter Eve faces unimaginable consequences and her will to survive is tested to its limits... THE FALL OF MAN begins in the Britain of today. Three successive generations struggle to exist in a future rife with change. Their story chronicles a series of cataclysmic, global events, from the perspective of an all-too-human family. Two new chapters to be added each week...

[Major Editing Coming Soon] A rising tension. A waning moon. Shady, skeptical beings. An underwater dynasty, crumbling at the fists of rebelling forces. Nestling just off the rocky, tourist-swamped coasts of Guadeloupe lies an aquatic, mythological world, know to the ill-fated that reside there as Miraja. For seven years it has kept quiet, isolated and out of human reach. Until one sticky, summer night, when restless Lanakila Maurs and a hurricane unknowingly fall prey to magic lurking beneath the surface. As much as she likes to persuade herself into thinking otherwise, Lana still hasn't moved past her mother's unexplainable disappearance seven years ago. However, a newfound tail, a cunning cast of characters, and a perplexing Spell tattooed on her arm just might do the trick- that is, if the world under Guadeloupe isn't but a dream. ⓒ Copyright 2015.
