The Elixir of Da'ath (the sequel to The Sword of Saint Michael) is Coming Soon!

Greetings!

I am pleased to announce that the second book in the Zombie Apocalypse Series, The Elixir of Da'ath, is coming soon! Included below the banner is a description of the book, and there are mild spoilers of the first book, The Sword of Saint MichaelIf you wish to be informed when it is published, you can go to my web site, dcpfox.com, to sign up for my newslettter, which I publish evert two to four weeks. You'll learn things about me personally, and, be warned, there will be the occasional cat picture.

What is The Elixir of Da'ath about? (Mild spoilers of The Sword of Saint Michael)

A half-zombie’s murderous psychotic delirium leads to a quest for redemption.

Jocelyn Radomski faces execution for murdering soldiers during a psychotic break. A neo-Pagan military officer will pardon her only if she agrees to embark on a shamanic quest to retrieve and drink an elixir rumored to cure psychosis. According to the rumor, the elixir exists solely on the astral plane, hidden in the perilous realm of Da’ath on the kabbalistic Tree of Life.

Is the rumor about the elixir true? And does Da’ath even exist? Does a fate worse than death threaten Jocelyn there?

Readers of The Sword of Saint Michael will certainly remember Jocelyn Radomski, the psychotic shaman who is partially immune to the zombie pathogen. Scientific studies of her represent the only hope for humanity.

Jocelyn still must simultaneously deal with a post-apocalyptic zombie-filled material plane. Meanwhile, the same cast of characters from The Sword of Saint Michael, now scattered about Colorado, face new dangers in that world. The sheriff attempts to redeem himself by saving his zombie son. The lonely, middle-aged woman and the five-year-old girl, both infected with the zombie pathogen, face an uncertain future. And a new half-zombie sheds his past self and finds unexpected love.

And Jocelyn's journey is fraught with tests, trials, obstacles, fantastic beasts, and demons. The danger is real—perils of the astral plane can be worse than death on the material plane.

Wikipedia links: Da'ath, The Tree of Life. My version of Da'ath is somewhat different from Wikipedia's version, though, and the realm of Da'ath in Elixir is very dangerous and mysterious, but the wikipedia entry gives you a general reference.
