Quest & The Sign Of The Shining Beast
Step inside, deep into the heart of it. Where the blood stream flows. The hidden reaches. This you will see - a darkness in mind.
Quest: He awakes in a cavern. A single shaft of light. A strange and dangerous world. No memory and no guide, except for a lone voice urging him on, ever forward. Toward the demon.
And all the while, death lurks behind, stalking ...
The Sign of the Shining Beast: At night I dream, the endless sleep, and it always ends as it begins.
Here lies the twilight realm of forgotten tomorrows. It is what was ... could be ... never was.
Two tales. Two journeys. A single, fractured dream.
An epic new dark fantasy series, marrying storytelling with vivid artwork to create an experience like no other.
..". a breathless ride into the realms of spirit, wonder, and terror. The words are sharp, the images sublime, the experience unique ... not to be missed."
Ian Whates - Author of Pelquin's Comet
"Cockshaw's visually haunting images perfectly suit Malan's enthralling storytelling."

A graphic novel/illustrated novella featuring some stunning artwork. A really interesting and dark tale with a gut punch of an ending. To say too much would be giving it away.
