Priest Rocks

I've been really on my game lately and am already 1/2 way through editing Priest of Chaos. What is even better is that I'm thoroughly enjoying the story. At times I have to remember I'm supposed to be editing because I'm so engrossed with what's going on. The story line is entralling. The characters begin to unfold. And the intrigue begins on a whole other level. As for the characters in Mage of Chaos, some of them take a back seat in this book whereas others are pushed into the forefront. One of the best parts is how my favorite character comes into being. Though introduced in book one, Chalas takes on a primary role in this second novel. In a way, its a prelude into her character and how she becomes the anchor of the story all the way through til the end. This is why I love my #ShadowGodsSeries.

Priest of Chaos

It's been less than a week and I'm already 1/3 of the way through editing Priest of Chaos, book 2 of the #ShadowGodsSeries. This book is much more driven, more focused, and begins right where Mage of Chaos left off. In a way, Mage of Chaos is more than just the beginning of the series, It sets the stage for book 2. What started as an introduction to the world and the main characters evolves within the pages of Priest of Chaos. Personalities, interactions, and drive now begin to define everyone involved. New characters spoken of in Mage of Chaos come alive in book 2. In a way, my #ShadowGodsSeries has multiple plot lines just like the Lord of the Rings series. And just like in that series, this series begins with a few main characters and soon expands to encompass the entire world. The difference is that in my #ShadowGodsSeries, there are nuances, hints, and foreshadowing that the reader should pick up on (if the reader pays attention). I've done the same in nearly every novel I've written and it is even more prevalent here. The best part is that by the end of Priest of Chaos the characters change enough for you to ponder where the story is leading. That, I hope, is the draw.

Though it has taken longer than I anticipated, editing of Mage of Chaos, book one of my #ShadowGodsSeries, is now complete.

Steve: I will forward you a copy.

For any others, you'll have to wait. Sorry, but this is still a work in progress. The good part is I can begin to work on final version of the novel along with book two of the series, Priest of Chaos. Hopefully, editing that book will go more quickly.
