Diabolica: Book One

Written in the style of an anthology with the purpose of telling one singular story, each chapter in Diabolica will take the reader on an entirely new journey within the same universe; a universe with an array of beings, from witches and demons, to spirits and angels. In Diabolica, the reader will journey through the minds of some of the most heroic, and the most devious, characters imaginable. Lucy Moray is a Native American woman—and mother—living incognito in a town inhabited by English settlers. She possesses a gift that allows her to protect her land from the evil that is now claiming it, and, unbeknownst to the settlers, it is the settlers themselves who have brought about these dark forces. Reverend Oliver Hugh, a self-righteous man, accuses Lucy of witchcraft and has her sentenced to death. It is her death that will spawn a continuous reincarnation of a terrible responsibility. Alexander Harrow comes from a very distinguished lineage, and lives with his family in turn-of-the-century New York. The Harrows have long-since lost their fortune, and have resorted to dealing with a black-market business called The Underground. After years of pressure to provide for The Underground, and putting his family in danger, Alexander decides that the only way out is suicide. From there, he encounters the angelic Lucy who shows him a world, and its troubles, that he never knew existed. Hom-6, a.k.a. the Human Operating Machine #6, is an artificial human created by AI engineer Captio Northcott. The year is 2080, and a recently-established political party, the Dynamic Party, has taken control of the United States and has plummeted it into disarray. It is the intention of both Captio and his ailing father to use Hom-6 to take back the country from the hands of President Hart. However, in doing so they may have entered a war older than time itself, and Hom-6 will have to face-off with the most nefarious villain of all time — the Devil himself.
