<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The Darkest Eyes weaves together alien abductions, the mythology of Atlantis, and parallel worlds. Connecting all three is an object that -- in the right hands -- is a conduit of unimaginable power. Those hands belong to an unlikely hero -- a scientist who has no room in her life for the magical, mystical or unexplained.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>The Darkest Eyes</em> is an epic portal-crossing adventure with mythic resonance and strong psychological underpinnings.</p><p>Will Roan is at the top of her game career-wise. She's a deep-sea submersible pilot who's brainy, daring and cool. Her personal life couldn't be more different. For as long as she can remember, she's seen little gray aliens lurking in the shadows, watching her, stalking her. Although she's a scientist who tends to be inquisitive about everything, she has steadfastly refused to examine the disturbing things she's experienced throughout her life, fearing all she'd find would be evidence of her own mental instability. </p><p>Her effort to present a sane exterior to the world has meant that she could never get too close to anyone or settle down anywhere. Physically and emotionally, she's always been on the run. Lately, though, the grays have been threatening to tear down the wall Will has erected between her inner life and the real world. They've been relentless in their pursuit, infringing on the semblance of normalcy she's constructed.</p><p>When a particularly frightening encounter costs Will her job, she makes her way home. She's just in time for her dying mother -- her dying, crazy mother -- to give her an object that could explain away Will's madness or draw her inextricably into its clutches. A beautifully carved crystal skull holds the answers to the mystery of Will's life, her mother says. She can use it to cross a portal to Atlantis -- her real home.</p><p>Will's first instinct is to run, but her flight is interrupted when her beloved young niece disappears, the apparent victim of the aliens. Will decides to plunge into the unknown to find young Becky.</p><p>Atlantis is beautiful and unspoiled, and its people appear to be living their best lives. However, political intrigue and dissent simmer beneath the surface. Hesoa is a dying world, chaotic and reeking, populated by a race of gray aliens on the verge of extinction. Will must navigate the perils of both worlds to save the child -- and, it turns out, much more.</p><p>Will is beset with self-doubt. Is she sane? Is anything she's experiencing real? Can she trust anyone? Is it possible that the fate of three worlds could depend on her? </p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"The Darkest Eyes</em> is a blend of multiple dimensions, the psychology of imagination versus delusion, and the philosophy of string theory, interspersed with myths and legends from many times, places, and cultures. It's a rich, writhing ball of story that challenges you to wrap your hands and your mind around it...and promises great rewards if you dare." -- Pamela Jaye Smith, MYTHWORKS</p> <p></p><p>"It is at times poetic, at times descriptive, but it creates an atmosphere that reflects the moods and the themes beautifully developed in the writing." -- Divine Zape, Readers' Favorite</p> <p></p><p>"You will find worlds within worlds within the pages of this book. Your mind will be taken on a roller coaster ride past aliens, crystal skulls, and even Atlantis. A fine write by someone who is obviously intelligent and intuitive as well as being an excellent wordsmith. I found it to be a 'must read' and I recommend it to people of all ages." -- John Holland, Author, Australia</p> <p></p><p>"<em>The Darkest Eyes</em> combines elements of myth, paranormal phenomena, and scientific theory into a unique tale of adventure and suspense. ... Thanks to Mick Brady's imaginative, exciting storytelling and vivid, descriptive writing style, <em>The Darkest Eyes</em> is sure to appeal to a wide audience." -- Rita McDonough Jenkins, Boulder, Colorado</p> <p></p><p>"A seductive reading experience. Almost mythological in nature, it begs readers to consider their own humanity, good vs. evil, intellectual and personal creativity, environmental issues, politics, and more." -- Jane T. Jarvis, Holly Springs, North Carolina</p><p> </p><br>
