Are demons after Blake or is he mad? Into the Light is a story of perception, zealotry, and social rebellion with a malignant version of Jiminy Cricket chirping opinions into the mind. It is an experimental novel. May I introduce you to the Will, the collective unconscious and Jiminy Cricket of the internet age. The Will wishes to bring you Into the Light. Though this story is about all of humanity, and the roots of our dysfunction, the Will found it more effective to compose a single novel to convey its message. This far easier than speaking to each person individually. Plus, they might think they were going mad instead of reading fiction, which is almost the same. So, a story within the story. The person, or should I say character, the Will chose to manipulate for this purpose is Blake Moxley. Poor Blake, such a nice chap, was thrust into a world of a confusion after he began to see people become ghoulish creatures and sought answers, as one does during such situations, and found them in an ex-priest, or so he claimed, nicknamed Stiggy. Blake was told of mystical beings who controlled civilization from hidden seats of power; however, he was one of the few who could see their true grotesque faces. Being a concerned citizen, he set off on a crusade across the United States to expose the dastardly evil. Sure, it led to ruination as he confronted the beings who manipulated Business, Politics and Media, but in the end, he finds salvation. Well, sort of.

The Nost

Jack and Ann have taken me on a great adventure full of mystery and incredible technology, I hope you'll join us. I know you have a lot of reading choices, but if you have space left in your literary adventure cup, please join Jack and Ann as 2021 turns into 2022, happy reading! __ The demon whispers inside Jack's mind. "They are not worthy, they are cattle, these new humans you covet. The so-called creator has betrayed you, replaced you with these organic imitations. Slaughter them all." It's funny, not in a ha-ha funny way, but a sad, my madness doesn't make sense type of way, Jack thinks, because wasn't he human? Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That's why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he's in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won't take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn't his first life and if he doesn't free her from her prison, it won't be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn't understand. It's a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon's voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn't remember...yet.
