Description:"Gripping, complex fantasy that had me on the edge of my seat. More, please!" -Amazon Review Terrifying, hilarious and heartrending, expect the unexpected when a scientist dying from AIDS and a bitter witch unleash the Contagion, a conflagration of horror's drawn from the mythological nightmares of many cultures. A gutty crew of survivors include a Sioux Warrior Woman, A sentient zombie, a witch LGBT activist and Liz , Bennie and Katie, three young people from Everywhere, USA who never saw it coming. It's in their hands to try and thwart the plans of The Profane to enslave and annihilate humankind while fending off the dysfunctional government of cracked President Diddler and Secretary Stank. This book, Waking The Living Bones, was a long time coming. It addresses many of the issues that spoke to me during my life on this planet: feminism, humor, spiritual evolution, the pathology behind political, sexual and cultural suppression, busting gender stereotypes, in a delicious scary package. Here are two excerpts: #1. ...It had been on the day that Cheryl got stuck in front of the health club’s full-length mirrors. This happened. Moments of reckoning when cognizance was fading. Cheryl was unique in that her tongue had not been cut out in the monstrous laboratory. Still, she had long ago ceased speaking aloud, as none of her companions could answer her. Only occasionally after they killed the mindless ones, her whispered prayers could be heard. Now she stared at her own skeletal, jittery form, wisps of ratty hair barely clinging to her head, and began a harsh litany. "It's all bone and rot. Corpse stink. Death.” A cry began building, and Adain lifted her in his arms, carrying her into the hot tub. After a while, the heat partially restored an illusion of normal body temperature and she wrapped around him, desperate to feel their skin touch. Later she began reciting fragments of recalled identity: “I was born in French Hospital in New York City… my first love’s eyes were pine bark brown, he took my chapped hands and rubbed them between his… we lived on Bank Street in…my school was…. my school was…… my school………….” She began to weep, dry, empty, racking. “Who am I?….who….who?” With fierce tenderness Adain placed his palm on the center of her chest, where he felt the fount of the soul dwells in all people. You are yourself. Cheryl Salvatori. She looked at him in silence, half innocent, half lost, and his heart clenched, though he returned her gaze serenely. She would be truly lost soon, and he would not allow her to suffer that. Singing a lullaby, he place his hands tenderly on her neck and pressed her face to the curve of his shoulder. After she slipped into a child’s trusting sleep, he deftly inserted the ice pick. When Night dropped its robe over a bright day, he was still holding her. An abrasive noise penetrated the health club. It took him a while to place it. The front doorbell. Surreal; no one rang doorbells anymore. A gaunt woman with chopped hair and a face haunted to madness stood in the health club entrance, a cold red moon rising behind her. “I'm Colonel Nicki Ho. I want to join your strike force. I'll be an asset.” #2. Honoria shot to the building’s ledge like a pointer hound, body crouched long and low. The witch snarled like a timber wolf menacing its enemy, face elongating as she bared sharpened teeth in gums turned black, her long red tongue pulsing with feral growls. Electricity accumulated in the orbs of her eyes and waves of heat lifted her hair in twisting spirals. The door to the roof cracked open.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
