Mortal Sight
Description:
When Worlds Collide, Shadow Wrestles Light
Seventeen-year-old Cera Marlowe wants a normal life; one where she and her mom can stop skipping town every time a disturbing vision strikes. But when a girl she knows is murdered by a monster she can't explain, Cera's world turns upside down.
Suddenly thrown into an ancient supernatural battle, Cera discovers she's not alone in her gifting and vows to use her visions to save lives. But why does John Milton's poem Paradise Lost keep interrupting her thoughts?
In a race against time and a war against unearthly creatures, will decoding messages embedded in the works of classic literature be enough to stop the bloodshed and protect those she loves?
"A unique blend of fantasy and literary elements."
—School Library Journal
"An absorbing fantasy"
—Foreword Reviews
"With frequent references to Milton, Mortal Sight is a promising beginning to an intriguing series." —Lorehaven Magazine
Book Takeaway:
We are each granted specific gifts and roles in the world / community, and must learn to accept and understand that what we're given plays a unique part changing the world.
Why the author wrote this book:
I have a heart for the misfit and the underdog. This story was written for the ones who feel as if they don't belong and not sure how they make a difference in the world, or whether their life matters. My hope is that this story will build hope in knowing that there is a place we belong, but it might not be found in this world, and that the part we play is important, does matter, and can change the world--or at least one life.
