Shadows #1
Shadowfall
This wasn’t what Brice signed up for.
They promised adventure and excitement, not routine and reports. They trained and enhanced him, then stuck him on menial duties. They made him a man, yet they treat him like a child.
His commander is a has-been, the tech guy’s got an over-inflated ego, the pilot’s too emotionally attached to her craft, and their tracker smothers them all like an over-protective mother. And now they’re miles from home, in the worst storm of the season, and they’re losing power.
But things are about to get far worse.
Something hides in the shadows. It watches, and waits. Soon, it must satisfy its hunger.
Brice definitely didn’t sign up for this.

About the author
T.W. Iain
18 books5 followersMarried, kids, job; the usual stuff. But there has to be more. Music, and books. Especially books. Fuel for the imagination, energy for the mind.
When I was younger, I’d go outside ‘to play’, but I’d take a book with me, find somewhere to sit, and read. I can recall holidays not through what happened, but through the books I read at the time.
But it’s never one-way. All those stories, all those ideas – they ferment. They build up, and they need a release.
TW Iain is the part of me that acts as a release valve. TW types away, crafting tales to put out into the world. There are Dystopian thrillers (the Dominions series) and sci-fi horrors (the Shadows series). And then there’s the short fiction, in anthologies and on twiain.com.
The website also allows an output for various musings on books and anything related to them. But mainly, there’s the fiction—the stuff already out there, the stories in process, and the ideas that may, one day, grow to become new stories.
And all these stories (the ones I write and the ones I read) spawn new ideas, which ferment and grow into their own stories.
It’s never-ending, this writing thing. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Wow. That is all I can say about this book. It kept me on my toes waiting to find out what came next. I was left wanting more and I am very eager to read anything written by this writer. This book had everything I like in the fantasy genre. It was well-written with a lot of character and world building. I would definitely recommend this book.
