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.
