Julianacrain Stories

"Joe, thank God," He heard John Smith exhale, pictured his pristine uniformed shoulders easing. "Where are you?" "Mexico," Joe swayed and wondered how he was going to explain this time.

The year is 1962. The Greater Nazi Reich and the Japanese Pacific States have carved up a defeated America. Juliana Crain is a woman living a life of quiet compliance-until her sister is murdered by the Kempeitai, leaving her with a forbidden film of a different world and a mysterious, pulsing metallic orb. When the orb shatters, Juliana becomes the host for Ven, an ancient, predatory alien symbiote with a hunger for more than just adrenaline. As Juliana journeys to the Neutral Zone to find the Man in the High Castle, she discovers that Ven is not just a weapon-she is a possessive, seductive lover who offers Juliana the power to tear down empires. As the line between woman and monster dissolves, Juliana must choose: Will she flee to a peaceful alternate reality, or will she embrace the dark, erotic pull of the symbiote to become the God-Queen of a new, obsidian world?
