New Enochian Thriller Release: Infernal Revelation Collected Episodes 1-4
The jock with survivor’s guilt, the young prodigy, the punk, the Nietzschean bully, and the minister’s daughter discover that they have more in common than their adoption records. A supernatural mystery links them together even as it sets them apart. If they can’t overcome their mutual distrust and work together, the secret that binds them will end up consuming them – and they’ll never even know why.
Infernal Revelation is the first story arc, or “season”, in the Profane Apotheosis serial. It’s presented in four episodes, and can be read as a stand-alone story in its own right.
The serial’s premise began as a postmodern pagan approach to Christian mythology, particularly the more esoteric apocrypha, including Goetic and Enochian mysticism. Featuring in the Infernal Revelation arc is the idea of Nephilim, the half-human, half-angelic giants from the Old Testament.
This is expressed through elements of ontological and personal horror.
A second core element to the premise is that of the outsider, and how clumsy attempts at inclusion can serve to push people further away. Each of the main characters in Infernal Revelation is “othered” by their small town, in some cases overtly and in some cases overtly, but by the end of the arc the divisions that were once so cloying now seem distant and superficial.
Episode 1 is free
I hope you enjoy reading Infernal Revelation. I’ve made the first episode free through Barnes & Noble, Kobo, iTunes, and Smashwords. It’s currently 99-cents through Amazon, though they may eventually get around to price-matching it to free as well. I can’t put a ballpark on when that might be, so if paying a dollar for a book doesn’t break your bank, I wouldn’t recommend waiting.
If you do get a kick out of what I’m doing here, the next arc, Dark Genesis, should be available at the end of 2014 or early 2015.
