WELCOME to THE OLD WORLD SAGA - BOOK ONE!
GET READY to experience the definitive EBOOK edition of IN THE SHADOW OF MONSTROUS THINGS!
From Australian author Joel Preston comes a story you won't be able to put down. The author noticed that werewolves were always playing second fiddle to every other type of supernatural monster in popular stories, and didn't have a grand tale of their own. He has now corrected this. Drawing from ancient Greek myth, this novel explores the origins of the werewolf curse through the eyes of university graduate Joshua Dare, a man who has come to possess the ancient affliction. This is a tale of gods and monsters in the modern world.
In the Shadow of Monstrous Things is Joshua Dare's origin story. You can either start The Old World Saga here, in this smaller monster story, or with Rise Golden Apollo, the epic story of war and gods. You will need to read both to follow Josh's journey through the world of the supernatural.
AN ANCIENT CURSE. A STORY FROM MYTH. CAN HE LIVE IN THE SHADOW OF THE MONSTER WITHIN?
In Bronze Age Greece a foolish king dared to test the storm-gatherer Zeus. In his arrogance and hubris the king felt the wrath of that God and faded into obscure myth... or so the world thought.
The dark corners of the Earth that ancient curse lingered, twisting and mutating, creating rumours of a monster that dwells within a man. Through time and legend it passed, until in whispers it reached modern day Greece...
Facing an uncertain future, Joshua Dare has embarked on a modern rite of passage - a European getaway. In Greece, during a wild night out, a mysterious barman tells Josh that he's going to have a particularly lucky night. Yet, fate sees him walking home alone through the dark woods of Corfu. Under the light of a full moon, destiny comes for Josh in the form of a terrifying monster from myth. A harrowing escape leaves him wondering if it was all just a dream. A vicious bite left no scar and dried blood seems to be all that remains of his encounter.
Back home in Australia, the secrets of that night are revealed in lunar light. When the full moon rises in the tropical city of Cairns, death follows. Legend becomes reality as Josh struggles to comprehend the changes he's undergoing. A local policeman and his friend, Jesse, knows something is connecting Josh to a spate of bloody massacres in Cairns. And he's not the only one.
Now, Josh has been thrust into a world of hidden organisations and shady government operatives. His affliction is different. To understand the power he carries, Josh must unravel the truth of an ancient Greek king cursed by a god. Chased by foreign agents and fearing the beast within, Joshua Dare needs to uncover old secrets revealed only in the light of the full moon.
