The Veil

Dystopian fantasy fiction novel

Book One

In the far reaches of a distant universe, there was once a supreme, cultivated planet teeming with vibrant life. Still, it was mercilessly ravaged by a sudden, devastating impact from a solar storm. The violent storm birthed a cataclysmic polar shift, tearing open a dimensional pathway and dragging a significant portion of the planet into eternal darkness. Those who managed to survive were thrust into the unknown realms—worlds of treacherous plights and bizarre encounters – but no matter the odds, they were forced to fight for their very existence. And now… they have arrived on Earth, a mere shadow of their former glory.

The town of Everton, nestled at the foothills of the Ozarks, is a haven of tranquility. Selene Marley sees her future so clearly. Her organic food and natural remedy store has been in her family for generations, and she plans to continue that tradition. Her fiancé, Rayden Hendrix, has her heart all wrapped up and ready for a walk down the aisle. It’s a life any woman would dream of, but her corner of the world is about to turn into a day of reckoning with the terrifying appearance of a mysterious veil. Everton, a once beautiful place filled with a sense of security and love, will now be shattered— a destructive force will hit the town, pulverizing lives, tearing families apart, and shattering their reality. Men, women, and children will be forever scarred, but none as profoundly as Rayden and Selene.

They will face their battles, one against the chaos and madding riots that threaten to consume their town and the other… a nightmarish reality where the laws of nature are twisted, and the line between life and death is blurred. What will it take to preserve their sanity, their humanity, and their love? Or will it be too late?
