Produktbeschreibung

In the wake of the Broken Circuit, society lies shattered, and the digital noise has given way to a profound, unsettling silence. Desperate for balance in a world stripped of connection, some segments of humanity turn to ancient forces and forbidden rituals. In The Shadowed Rites, a descendant of Willow Blake emerges, leading a secretive order that delves into forgotten myths and dangerous, occult practices.

This is a descent into darkness and myth, exploring the allure and peril of seeking power outside the bounds of conventional understanding. They seek to restore a lost equilibrium, but their methods flirt with forces that are ancient, unpredictable, and potentially malevolent. A Jett Riley of this era, perhaps a reluctant seeker of truth, finds himself drawn into their world, witnessing the raw power and terrifying consequences of these shadowed rites.

This book explores the dangerous beauty of forgotten magic, the desperate human need for control in chaos, and the fine line between spiritual awakening and profound corruption. It's a story of humanity's desperate gamble, as it turns to the deepest, darkest roots of its past to find a way forward, risking everything to restore a balance that may be beyond their control.

Autorenporträt

Gregory Parrott is more than a writer; he embodies the very stories he's always yearned to read. Since his restless teenage years, he has crafted worlds where futuristic starships meet World War II battlefields, and ancient dragons exist alongside modern drones. By blending science fiction, historical fiction, thrillers, military sagas, and fantasy, he provides readers a captivating escape through time, space, and the complexities of the human experience.

Living in New England, Gregory's vibrant life in Massachusetts deeply influences his narratives. Growing up with rolling hills and rich history has shaped his creative sensibilities. Now, he balances his writing with family life, cheering for his kids at sporting events or brainstorming bedtime stories over a cluttered kitchen table filled with sketches of alien landscapes and battle maps.

Outside, Gregory finds solace in the rhythm of the water. Twice a week, he joins a veterans' crew in a dragon boat on the Connecticut River. This disciplined teamwork enhances the realism of his action scenes. After paddling, he retreats to his gaming den, diving into RPGs and tactical shooters, treating these sessions as studies in pacing, character motivation, and world-building.

Running also grounds him, especially in the vivid New England autumn. Every run clarifies his thoughts, with plot ideas emerging as his feet strike the pavement, creating a mental ledger of dialogue snippets, settings, and plot twists.

Discipline and imagination fuel Gregory's storytelling. His early fantasies, scribbled during math class, echo the same passion that drives his current work. Years spent with veteran military strategists have refined his craft, marrying meticulous research with boundless creativity. Each chapter invites readers to explore universes where rogue AIs lead rebellions, medieval knights find portals to the future, and ordinary people become extraordinary heroes in war.

His narratives resonate with the stories we all wish to hear, validating hidden dreams. With the precision of a seasoned tactician and the wonder of a child, Gregory offers a literary passport, transporting readers to extraordinary realms while reminding them that the magic of storytelling lies in the heart of the storyteller.
