There are no words to describe a parent's love for their children and it's no different for any race or nation. Even for the Gods it's a love, filled with pride, always forgiving, and forever evolving. Jacob - Children of the Gods - is the fourth in a riveting five book series continuing the story of Jacob and his battles against the Dark side. In this instalment he becomes aware of a new threat that seems to live in Shadow. At the same time, the Children of the Gods are rapidly changing from being preteens, into being sixteen-year-old hormonal youths with untested powers that can easily get out of control, powers that need mentoring. Very soon they become targets of Shadow and begin suffering as each day passes. After intensive training, brought in as a result of growing sinister attacks, they fall into a trance so deep it takes them through the halls of Olympus into a waiting dark mist were, before exiting, everything for them changes. They transform to present as very powerful young gods ready to take on all comers. Is the rise of Shadow connected to the fall of Hell? Will their newfound powers be enough to assist in establishing Shadows identity? Is there a new battle coming?

Autorenporträt

Eamon Blake is from Crumlin, a Southside suburb of Dublin, Ireland, a place he still has a great love for. It was there, between 1970 and 1975, where he attended the local secondary school, Meanscoil Naomh Colm. During fifth and sixth year, he had the pleasure of being taught English by the late Michael Condon, an inspirational teacher who had an amazing teaching technique commanding the greatest of respect from his pupils. Eamon be lieves that as a result of that teacher's style and perseverance he developed an interest in writing. It was in that same school where he developed his passion for real and classical history. The history and mythology learned during that time lingered in Eamon's mind and those early influences only resurfaced in recent years, inspiring him to pen a series of five fantasy nov els recounting the tale of a Dublin schoolboy discovering his extraordinary powers, and who he actually was. A widower with one son, Eamon, over the years, has successfully navigated various employment roles involving procurement, sales and marketing. His professional journey included delivering marketing presentations to major wholesale and retail chains, as well as participating in monthly sales and planning meetings. He believes the wealth of experience garnered during those years helped him develop his own writing style, ultimately leading to the Jacob series. Eamon's first foray into writing began with him researching and publishing a book detailing the history and genealogy of his own family in central Dub lin, dating back to the 1780s. Motivated by a desire to share this heritage, he produced and published enough copies exclusively for his extended family. The idea for the Jacob series came to Eamon in the late summer of 2016 after he witnessed a charming yet humorous incident in Temple Bar, Dublin. This event led to the realisation that a fantastical story could be crafted by intertwining major historical events from Africa, America, Europe, the Far East as well as the Near East, linking them, and drawing inspiration from worldwide mythological realms featuring Centaurs, Dragons, Elves, The Gods, The Little People, Mer-Peoples, The Yeti and Wizards.
