Author blends science fiction and fantasy into a tale of sin and damnation.
The unconventional main character, Tyler Jensen, is a flawed drug dealer from Los Angeles that has been transformed into an alien spirit known as an Onyalum. After bungling the life of Admiral Osloo in the first book, Tyler embarks on a rampage through the Universe breeding chaos on any world unlucky to cross his path. His anger is finally sated after a violent battle that leaves him horrified by what he has become. Confused and lost, he seeks refuge on a desolate planet dominated by a single religion awaiting the return of their god. Posing as a lowly priest addicted to powerful narcotics, he becomes embroiled in a battle between the dominant religion and an ancient cult. But the decadent horrors he experiences are nothing compared to the hell the wrath of a god unleashes. Will he survive his damnation or will the alien inside unlock his humanity to save his soul?
"In the TRIAL OF GESH, I further explore the weaknesses of a person consumed by self absorption and personal decadence. For most of us, it is difficult to understand the personal failures of those addicted to mind altering substances. To them, every world is alien, every love elusive, and every day a living hell. This second adventure is both disturbing and thought provoking, but we all must face the darkness if we are to find the light at the end of the tunnel."
TRIAL OF GESH is an insightful follow-up to the first novel
that introduced us to the pathetic character, Tyler Jensen. His continuing quest
to find a life within the Universe is plagued by his naiveté and self abuses. TRIAL
OF GESH continues this character development as we journey with Tyler to the
bowels of hell. His fall is set against the backdrop of a Universe that is mysterious,
beautiful, and violent. TRIAL OF GESH (ISBN 0-595-46663-X) is the second in the Onyalum
Series. The book retails for $24.95 and is available through the publisher, iUniverse, and through online retailers such as Barnes
& Noble and Amazon.com.
