Shadowed Emergence

About Shadowed Emergence

In book one, In the Shadow of Humanity, King Orso’s Permutants rescued their high priestess and conquered the Transmutants who wanted to enslave humanity, ending

ages of in-fighting over this issue. Book two, Shadowed Emergence, continues their story & takes you on an extraordinary journey that explores uncharted territory when

King Orso brings his alien Permutants above ground and allows humans to know of their existence. This hasn’t happened since their arrival from Displution ages ago when

we humans were an unwashed, superstitious lot. Even though humans now have advanced technology, King Orso is aware that humans are ruining the planet and he feels compelled to work with them to create a safe haven for all. The Permutants face seemingly insurmountable odds with bravery, humor, and honor as some humans accept them and other’s fear and hate them, as was expected. Meanwhile, life goes on. A rigid rule follower, Bull must learn to drive among humans who use those same rules as mere suggestions. (Uh-oh!). Derman has a life changing surprise coming full steam ahead and if you read book one, it’s not what you think! Little Adira grows up smack in the middle of the good, the bad and the ugly parts of humanity. Even as life goes on, Orso orders his people to be discrete with their abilities and blend in, so they don’t freak out the humans and provoke all-out war, which would be devastating for all beings and the planet itself. Somehow, where the supernatural and the mundane meet, King Orso must find a way for the two cultures to exist side by side with respect and acceptance of their differences. The story dives deep into the emotions and lives of its characters as they work toward this lofty goal. Unfortunately, Jerkent, a surviving Transmutant is set on vengeance. He is a festering boil on Orso’s backside and is constantly spewing poison into the works. Just when you think you can’t hate Jerkent more he meets his human mate of the eons. After some gut-wrenching twists and turns, you will beg for book three, Shadows of the Amazon.

Forbidden Secrets of Egypt, The Lost Knowledge by M.G. Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

About Forbidden Secrets of Egypt, The Lost Knowledge by M.G. Hawking, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

Explore the Lost Knowledge of the Antediluvian Civilization of Ancient Egypt. Thousands of years ago a small Neolithic community in the region of the lower Nile abruptly rose to create the most majestic and enduring civilization of history. The rise of Ancient Egypt to a stunningly advanced state of culture lasting thousands of years demonstrates advancements that have long eluded explanation.
“Ancient Egypt presents us with an impenetrable mystery. How may we explain a Neolithic desert people spawning the most majestic civilization of history? Their rapid ascension from a primitive state to a previously unapproached zenith of technology and culture demonstrates advancements that utterly elude explanation. Many of their artistic and architectural productions are unequalled to this day. What could possibly explain vast technical knowledge and sophistication appearing so fully-formed so suddenly?” —Legendary Egyptologist Flinders Petrie, Archaeological Journal (1911)
What long lost knowledge underlies the unprecedented technology, artistic creations, and cultural sophistication of Ancient Egypt? The voluminous lore of ancient Egyptian tradition relates that in the antediluvian time of zp tpj (generally transcribed as Zep Tepi), the “first occasion” or “first time,” mysterious, highly enlightened “gods” appeared in Egypt, bearing previously unknown technology and knowledge. The texts inscribed on the walls of the Temple of Edfu in Upper Egypt contain explicit descriptions of the time of Zep Tepi and the coming of the “bringers of knowledge,” said to have occurred, the texts tell us, circa 18,000 B.C.
Plato (c. 428-348 B.C.) writes of Egyptian masters presenting him with historical records extending back some 18,000 years: “Egypt has recorded and kept eternally the wisdom of the ancient ages, all coming from time immemorial when gods governed the earth in the dawn of civilization.” Herodotus tells us that when Hecataeus of Miletus (550-476 BC) boasted to the Egyptian priests that he could trace his ancestry through fifteen centuries, they quietly showed him, in a hidden sanctuary deep under the sands, the statutes of 345 high priests, each the son of the preceding, making 345 generations since their “gods” had appeared in the Nile valley and marking a timeline extending back one-hundred-eighty centuries.
This book reveals and explores the forbidden secrets and profound lost knowledge of a magnificent civilization, long concealed in myth and legend. An important read for anyone seeking greater personal knowledge and power. 2023 Edition, e-reader page count 302 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device used). For more information, please see the ‘Read sample’ feature on the book’s Amazon page. Thank you.

Dirty Spirits by Sawney Hatton

About Dirty Spirits by Sawney Hatton

On sale for 0.99 cents 10/27 – 11/2!

Take the dark family dynamics of Netflix’s THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, add some EVIL DEAD 2 level mayhem, then wrap it in LEAVING LAS VEGAS’ unflinching portrayal of addiction, and you have the new offbeat occult/paranormal novel from the twisted mind of Sawney Hatton.

They say you can’t choose who you fall in love with, and Doug believed it.

He didn’t expect to fall in love with an addict. Once he did, he knew the relationship would be challenging. But there are some things you can never imagine happening, crazy stuff you can never prepare for no matter how hard you try. All Doug can do now is hang on and hope the love of his life isn’t dragged back into hell by her ex-fiancé who can’t move on.

Because while Liam Fowlington may be dead… he’s far from departed.

“The author puts a great twist on the ghost story. Add a family with some strange rituals, some body horror, dark humor and you’ve got yourself a great read!” -Audrey’s Vault of Horror

Ty

About Ty

Based on an impactful real-life youth crime prevention programme in Perth, Australia, created and managed by the author, “Ty” unfolds both as a novel and a three-part TV drama, delving into the tumultuous life of Tyrone Lewis. This fourteen-year-old must navigate the perilous streets of London, born in prison to a fifteen-year-old heroin-addicted mother. His early experiences are scarred by physical abuse, neglect, drug trafficking, racism, mental health issues, youth gang involvement, and a rampant knife crime epidemic.
In the midst of this chaos, Ty forges an unexpected bond with a pregnant teenager escaping her brother’s abuse. This connection steers him into deeper trouble, leading to his imprisonment on several charges, including the kidnapping of a newborn found next to its deceased mother in a shadowy alley. Inside the prison walls, Ty is confronted with systemic injustice and racism, igniting his determination to defy the status quo.
Rising to a position of influence within the prison, Ty forms a profound connection with Spencer, a bullied transgender inmate. Together, they lead an alliance of inmates committed to eradicating makeshift weapons and drugs from the prison and bolstering each other’s mental health. Their overarching goal is to reduce youth re-offending, enhance safety, and confront critical issues such as knife crime, gang violence, antisocial behaviour, racism, and homophobia. They also reach out to assist the elderly and disabled, who feel imprisoned within their own homes.
Their efforts, however, face opposition from a notorious Albanian drug lord who controls London’s drug trade, human trafficking, and youth gangs. The government’s special forces, led by Clive, enlist Ty and his allies in a covert mission to dismantle this powerful enemy in exchange for special favours. Initially reluctant, Ty realises the necessity of engaging in this mission to protect his newfound family and their shared future.
Upon their early release, Ty and his colleagues, now heralded as the “HAY Patrollers” (Harmony Amongst Youth), continue their commendable work. They act as youth liaison officers in shopping centres and public spaces, markedly reducing youth crime and creating opportunities for multicultural street youths. Their efforts aim to reshape behaviours and foster safer communities. Nevertheless, Ty is acutely aware of the delicate pact he struck with Clive.
“Ty” is a compelling tale of struggle, redemption, and justice. It eloquently demonstrates how individuals from the most challenging environments can rise above their circumstances, breaking the cycle of violence to create a positive impact for themselves and their communities.
