Lilith's Tears: "This is a strange and violent place." Wrecked on an unchartered island, his ship and crew lost in a storm, Captain Trebane struggles to survive amongst the island's deadly community of immortals. Beset by the peculiar, dark magic that pervades the jungle, and the curse which has driven its inhabitants to savagery, Trebane discovers that, beneath the island's tropical beauty, lurks the shadow of an age old evil. Battling to rescue the woman he loves from the cathedral at the island's heart, he encounters the reclusive skeleton leader of the savages, along with the island's other strange inhabitants. As Trebane explores, he learns more of the island's curse, its connections with the Garden of Eden, its history, and the inexorable fate which tugs upon the lives of all its sinister occupants. Severed from the rest of the world, his quest culminates in a battle which will change the lives of the characters forever, and echo through all of time. Lilith's Tears will immerse readers in the mystical world of the island. Magic and darkness pervade the landmass, with its fabled immortality and the curse that has condemned countless generations to languish there. Adventure, mystery, romance and legend - Lilith's Tears will both amaze and enchant. The Travelling Circus of Lacrimosa: In 1899, Victorian England hovers on the brink of a new century, a new monarch, and an entirely new age. Soon, the world will be altered forever, but change is imminent on a more personal level for William Bury when he encounters a sinister, travelling circus on the edge of his town, and meets for the first time the charismatic illusionist Lacrimosa. William will meet the circus again, experience its magic, its darkness, and face the terrifying scheme that Lacrimosa has set into motion. Plunged into the world of the performers, and forced to confront not only Lacrimosa and his troupe, but the bleak promises of the future, William uncovers the true nature of the circus, its terrifying history, and its plans for the world. As the hidden universe of Lacrimosa is uncovered, William finds himself embroiled in a struggle which will have dire repercussions for the entire world. The Travelling Circus of Lacrimosa is a dramatic novel, incorporating elements of both a play and a novel. As the circus arrives, readers will experience the power of Lacrimosa's performance, his magic, his mystical origins, and the cunning of his plans. Gothic enchantment, adventure, fantasy and mystery - the travelling circus is waiting.
