Shadows Between Worlds

The second in the Roads Between Worlds series:


John Stephen Gray suffers sleepless nights from the memories of mistakes he's made, mistakes he can't forgive himself for.  Or, at least, that he's never learned to forgive himself for.  But neither he nor his daughter Janna have time to brood when invaders attack his home.

In a world of visionaries who have invented such wonders as regeneration tanks, cloned hardwoods and advanced weaponry, they have to find a way to deal with their attackers, and more importantly the nature of their attackers; but they also need to discover their own abilities, the nature of those abilities, their world, so like and yet unlike our own, and its nature as well.

Not to mention other worlds parallel to theirs.

For all the visionary inventions of their worlds, their attackers use equipment strange to them.  Where have the attackers come from?  Where did they get, or make, their equipment?  And why are they attacking in the first place?

The Roads Between Worlds series, of which this is the second, deals with perception and understanding, along with parallel worlds, and parallel versions of humanity.  Which is to say, along with the adventure, it considers what is human, as opposed to inhuman.  Humane as opposed to inhumane.  Perhaps even the unforgivable.

Since posting this, I've removed my books from Amazon, and am moving them to Project Gutenberg Self-Publishing Press.  They're all pdf ebooks, all free, and always will be.
