Description:

Winner of the Independent Press Award and the NYC Big Book Award for Visionary Fiction!

Eve Sanchez, a scholar of esoteric studies, is driven into unreal dimensions of horror and hope as she encounters a seductive and frightening man, criminal lawyer Sam Shear.

Sam introduces Eve to a supernatural world in which the wicked powers of a surrogate mother’s twisted affection threaten love and life. Struggling to sort through right from wrong, frightened yet determined, Eve nears despair.

Goddess of the Wild Thing reveals the dramatic tale of one woman’s spiritual journey where metaphysical happenings, unexpected turns of fate, and unseen forces impact her ability to love and be loved.

In the magical realm of Aztlan del Sur, a mythopoeic land of hidden horrors and guiding spirits, Eve, with three friends and a wise old woman, is caught in an age-old struggle about love—whether bad love is better than no love— and discovers that love is a wild thing.

I could picture clearly the fantastical sense of place . A must-read magical tale. ~ Luna Saint Claire, author of The Sleeping Serpent

Science fiction-fantasy... today 

Science fiction-fantasy has jettisoned forward in recent years to form an exciting and stimulating phantasmagoric amalgam. Good literature shifts, changes, and matures. Now sci-fi/fantasy offers the discriminating reader the benefit of traditional sci-fi (stories about future scientific or technological advances and social and environmental changes) urban fantasy, steampunk, visionary fiction, occult thrillers, and metaphysical horror narratives. Sci-fi/fantasy readers delve into realms of heightened personal and social transformation, and mind-bending alterations in consciousness.

These trends are purposefully provocative, cortical neurons and mental consciousness stimulated to beyond the tried and true. Brains and psyches are capable of continued growth and development over a lifespan, good literature energizing that process. Genre stories such as sci-fi/fantasy, if inspired, are written in a unique idiom. They open fascinating worlds to everyday educated folks. As writers, our intent is to communicate. So, no matter the level of formal education, an ardent reader should be able to pick up our book and take their time, absorb, learn, and enjoy.

Good literature stands the test of time in terms of quality, accessibility, and the power to touch the human soul. Books from one-hundred, twenty, or ten years ago draw the passionate reader into new dimensions of experience and expand the mind — the objective of all passionate sci-fi/fantasy writers.
