Another sample from THE SITY #2

It was the cat’s hissing that made him stop. Victor edged forward slowly toward the thick brush of leaves. Bending down to the wet dewy ground, Victor reached into the rickety old log that stretched before him. The dense branches of the trees overhead shielded the moon’s light. As the darkness of night overcame the area, Victor felt the chill of blindness creep up his body. He used his other senses – the smell of the cat’s thick fur, the feel of tiny footprints pressed into soil, and the patt...

I was impressed by the world Geist has built for this novel – it was so unique and terrifying and multi-layered. The action was fast paced and the story was full of shocks and revelations.
