The Spell of Binding (Part One)
Page 9
They had walked past the remains of the stone golems and were confused as to what they could be. Neither had ever seen anything like it before.
They just wished they had one of the communication blobs to be able to talk with Vorr. Surely he would know? He was king. He knew everything.
All they could do is wait and continue following the small group as they headed towards the city of Keep Safe. At the city the collection of harassing demons outside would have a blob, so they would be able to update Vorr about what was happening.
Qwat felt it first. The ground was vibrating under his feet.
Slis uncurled himself and slivered over to see what the fuss was about.
Now they stood by the cliffs edge they could see the vast cloud of kicked up dust. It was a vast line stretching across the distant horizon .
Has Vorr asked the Nephilim for their help? Surely not , Slis thought .
They were the only creatures who didn’t see Vorr as their leader. Massive beings as tall as forty foot. Slis had heard Vorr talking with Gob, trying to get the Nephilim on their side. Vorr had offered them all kinds of things to sway them over. But to no avail.
They have just as much to lose as we do. They will be sent back as well, Slis thought. Maybe they have seen sense?
From their elevated position they could now see the creatures that were kicking up the dust cloud as they came into view . It was n’t the Nephilim, as he first thought, rather , i t was more of those stone golems; thousands of them .

LAMB CHOPS AND CHAINSAWS
Nine Disturbing Short Stories about the Darker Side of Human Nature
What are your neighbours really like once their front door slams shut? Are your children's teachers' sound-of-mind? Has your partner got an evil, sinister side? Is a member of your family a murderer? These questions, and more, are examined in a collection of nine disturbing short stories; tales about the darker side of human nature.
Read about a wannabe serial killer who starts his reign of terror on the wrong footing. A Kindergarten teacher who has deep psychological problems that jeopardizes the safety of the children. How a child of nine turns to violence in retaliation for drug smugglers slaughtering her parents. A fanatical mother who believes her thirteen year old son is possessed by the Devil. How one killer spirals out of control and in his haste for victims makes a fatal mistake. A government trained killer who was set up as a scapegoat. Or a serial killer who has captured the attention of the world, and has setup one final, sickening display. What does it take to push someone that little bit too far and turn them into a killer? Find out when a savage murder is committed over a packet of lamb chops.
Strangers will never seem the same again.
LOBSTERS AND LA NDMINES
Another Nine Disturbing Short Stories about the Darker Side of Human Nature
Lobsters and Landmines is the second book in the Human Nature Series, following in Lamb Chops and Chainsaws footsteps, by continuing to look at the darker side of human nature, by delving into the dark twisted world of the sick minded, the perverse, the psychos and sociopaths; people who take pleasure from hurting others. Individuals, who could be your next-door neighbour or your lover, even a close family member.
Read about a captain who discovers the perfect lobster bait after a violent outburst. A HIV infected man who injects women with his tainted blood. A disfigured ex-army bomb disposal expert who has carved out a piece of paradise for himself in Vietnam, who keeps females as slaves and children as objects to sell. Or the sad story about two friends who are forever parted on September 11th 2001. And the airhostess Jenny who finds the perfect job on a Brazilian airline, but it seems they want more from her than most employers. What about the sweet little old lady who wins awards for her cakes, but what are her secret ingredients? Or the doomsday prepper that spends every waking minute of everyday prepping for the end of the world, until one critical mistake changes everything. Or a computer firm that sells its algorithmic computations to cosmetic firms, cutting out the need to test on animals, but below ground, the vast computer server hosts a disturbing secret. Finally, a businessman who realizes a little too late, what is truly important in life?
THE DEVILS HA RVEST
A SHOCKING SECRET
Jacob Cain’s life changes forever when he starts to receive a series of reanimated corpses, each impart a fragment of a message. An ancient tale unfolds as old as time itself relating humanities darkest untold secret – the biblical story from the Devil’s point of view.
A DESPERATE QUEST
As the chain of events unfolds Cain repeatedly finds himself confused and covered in blood. Suddenly he becomes a fugitive from the authorities, wanted in connection to multiple murders, his garden now a mass grave.
A HORRIFYING TWIST
Guided by one catastrophic event after another, Cain finds whole villages eerily silent with corpses littering the streets as a new plague from an unimaginable source starts to sweep the country. At an old farmhouse he comes face-to-face with mankind’s worst nightmare. And buried in a field is the answer to all the riddles that climax in a terrifying, unearthly twist.
As Cain fights for his life he must unravel the shocking truth, before billions die. He is all that stands in the way of a global pandemic on an apocalyptical scale.
THE GA TEWAY
WORLD ONE OF THE SEVEN WORLDS
THE SEVEN WORLDS
Eons ago entities with God-like powers brought together seven worlds, joined them by means of conduits—Gateways—each supplying the next with what it lacked, from a surplus of what that world produced, making life on all seven worlds possible. Then they disappeared. Each world became an individual.
THE BROTHERS
Two brothers stumble on the Gateway passing from our world to the next, and are endowed with powers beyond comprehension, vital for survival in this hostile and intelligent world where nightmarish creatures feed on the weak.
THE WAR
Titanic battles rage; good against evil, magic against machinery, mortal against immortal. A civil war rages between spirit creatures and a powerful self-proclaimed God. Why is the American government sending an army of mass destruction with the latest military technology through? Time is short, the armies are amassing.
And what is the prophecy about scratched on a wall of a prison cell by dying hands?
WAR OF THE GODS
A WAR
A war is raging that most don’t even realize exists – a war of the Gods. An age-old story, good against evil and hatred against love.
THE FALLEN ANGEL
Satan was bound and thrown from heaven, and his angels – now demons – were tossed down with him. He resides on earth, imprisoned in an ancient holy building. So his soldiers fight his side of the battle, misleading mankind, confusing and destroying spirituality, replacing it with greed, pleasures and lust.
THE ORIGINAL TAROTS
Created by the Devil himself, the tarots now fall into the hands of a mere human. Catastrophic events unfold, reaping death and destruction to millions. However, the tarots are a key, a key to an ancient forgotten bloodline that will turn the tide of the battle.
THE MAN
Unbeknown, the future of mankind’s very existence rests with Caleb Black. Forced from his home in London, he ends up fighting for his life at every turn. Caleb and an old ex-girlfriend – who harbours an ancient secret –
are all that stands between Satan’s New World Order and the return of the Grand Creator. Time is almost up. Both sides position their pieces for the final conflict.
PART ONE: THE DEVILS TAROTS
Caleb Black’s world is falling apart; he’s on the run after a body is found in his apartment building – and he’s the main suspect. And to make matters worse the dead are talking to him, and he’s being chased by strange men with tattooed foreheads with powers beyond explanation. The key to all his problems is a set of tarots that a vagabond old man gave him. All he needs to do is find a fortuneteller named Mamma, so she can guide him through the madness. An ex-girlfriend is also on the scene, but she just brings more questions than answers.
PARKINGDOM
YOU CAN BE SMALL AND STILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE
A SECRET WORLD
Parkingdom is home to a hidden society of tiny gnomes whose whole world resides inside the tall walls of a vast inner-city park; watched over by their Watcher from a large billboard. Then, without warning she disappears along with all the noisy humans.
A MISSION
Fisher and Bel have been sent away by the city elders to the Great Green Gates, to the Wardens Office, to find out why? It is a perilous journey through the deserted human section of the park and across the uncharted Wild Lands. Soon they find themselves travel companions with a witch’s ferret and a scrawny long toothed rat, and befriended by a strange little green snotling that knows a startling secret.
HOPE
Upon returning they discover their city under the control of a hostile neighbouring city’s army. Has their Watcher deserted them in their time of greatest need? Will the elders understand their Watcher’s cryptic message? Moreover, will they – along with their rebellious e lders – be able to do anything to save their family and friends?
Join Fisher and Bel as they embark upon an adventure that will change their small world forever.
