The Shattering of Light

By Alexander Shain

To fifteen-year-olds Nathan Devlin, Kayley Sanders and Stephen Triggs, high school was their whole world and believed that their home of Tohopka was just an ordinary, boring town. But for these high school students, a simple bet would bring them to see what lurks in the shadows of the storm drain under Harmon Creek Bridge. Shadows that sometimes allow monsters to reach out, grasp, steal, erase... A horror has burrowed deep in the minds of Kayley, Nathan and Stephen, wrapping the three in forgetfulness. Can Kayley, Nathan, and Stephen rediscover what was taken from them or will the monster entwined in the dark reaches of their memories make their past nightmares a terrible reality? If you're looking for Stephen Kingesque or Dean Koontzes style horror, you won't find it in The Shattering Of Light. This is a whole different breed of horror and simply asks the reader, How would you handle terrible nightmares and paranormal manifestations that challenge your own sanity? What are you willing to sacrifice for the ones you love? As you move with the characters, you will see mystery, intrigue, love and hate, pain and suffering and most importantly, hope. You will flow in the undercurrent of the preternatural elements of sci-fi. You will find at times the story barely feels like fiction at all. That the very core of The Shattering Of Light is the emotional journey that drives the characters. Think Stephen King's IT combined with Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird. Does that sound like something you'd like to read? If not, no worries. A simple search of the top-rated books in your favorite genre will lead to some fantastic finds. And I truly hope you do find something that appeals to you. For those of you that feel that this is worth your time, welcome to the world of Nathan, Kayley and Stephen.
