Shackles of Light (The Mal' Ak Cycle Book 2)

A dark heart beats beneath America. Native gods and demons, monsters, shapeshifters, and cruel magic all directed by a society so ancient and evil that it has spawned the worst nightmares of human kind. Only Eli Seven Crow, Keezie Stockman and their companions have a chance at stoping the Mahan Group from obtaining their goal. If they only knew what it was. Still reeling from their first encounter with Lamech, they stumble upon an even deadlier plot. One that’s succeeded in killing almost every person that stands against the Mahan Group and their plans. New to the series? Here is a taste of Shadow Souls Mal'Ak Cycle Book One: Welcome to the south, the hidden center of occult America. A wild land where tales of gods and demons, werewolves and shapeshifters whisper though old growth forests. A world where magic is as likely as the Tree of Life. This is Eli Seven Crow’s world, a world that he has both loved and hated for the two hundred years. A world he doesn’t understand. Because though it’s intent on killing him it won’t let him die. He’s experienced the cruel history of America, and fought against the crushing grip of the Mahan Group. An ancient secret society who’s founders are the reason humans fear the dark. To those few that have heard stories of him he is a fantasy superhero. To those that haven’t he’s a shadow, a nothing, a face in the crowd. Until he saves Keezie Stockman. The swirling mystery she’s knotted up in binds him as tight as cords, and soon he realizes it’s not her mystery at all. It’s his worst nightmare…

From the Inside Flap

Action packed from start to finish. I especially appreciate all the folklore included and the wonderful character development. There isn't a single character in the story I don't like.I can't wait to read the following installment and find out what adventures awaits Eli next.

From the Back Cover

This novel is simply enthralling . The action is nonstop. I was so excited, curious, and determined to have answers that I was unable to put the book down. The story is filled with unique characters and creatures. The author lays out an imaginative and original storyline - I didn't have a chance of guessing the outcome. The scenery and situations are incredibly descriptive yet concise. The author's choice of words leaves little guesswork for the reader to imagine what's going on. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!
