Book Description

Just to see Bart leaning against the doorway — on his feet, but relaxed in a way no white boy could stand, a guitar in his hand, perhaps — had a way of filling his father with a revulsion that Bob had to take out to the mesa to quiet. It was as if the man saw the face of his boy under a high-tinted sombrero (instead of the cast-off cavalryman’s campaign hat with a Copley peak) as if a sash of seda were thrust back over the shoulder. Bob didn’t quite know it, but it was because he was seeing Bart with the eyes of the other miners at these times — that he was stung so. The town had put a secret fear on him that his boy was not showing up white...FROM THE BOOK.

Book Description

Seven years ago Simon Rabin came back from the dead; no small event, but still just the precursor to something infinitely more extreme. Seven years later Greencoat is employed by a provocatively beautiful witch to find a missing researcher, who in turn believes he can prove there is no longer any such thing as a random number. In this dangerous hybrid reality though, nothing is what it seems. Other forces are at work, symbolic, fundamental and totally without mercy. As Greencoat begins to uncover the truth behind the Alternation, the world splitting cataclysm which created the Alter-Earths, he is caught in the middle as those forces begin to gather, preparing for an apocalyptic confrontation with men of incomparable power and unsurpassed evil - the Ascendancy.
