The Veil of Night– second book in The Flames of Hope Saga

[Ellette Giselle]

I’m no longer surprised when a character is taken/died. In fact, I was expecting it any time now. That’s not good.

Is it though? I mean sure, in modern storytelling that is a thing to reserve for smacking readers with, but could the fact that no one is safe almost be a shock in in of itself? Maybe I’ve read too much from early church history, but more people died than escaped, and that’s the feel I do want. I have read several books that follow this pattern (they were older books. You don’t see that happening so much in new books) I feel like we’ve forgotten what it used to mean to follow Christ. As a pastor I admire once said, “the problem with modern American Christians is no one is trying to kill them.”

anyhow, Plus, my literary goal is to scare the reader when Joseph comes under threat. I want it established now that I can and will off him and any moment if I so desire.

I did prewarn it would be dark. 😉

 

thank you very much for the feedback. I valued it enough to consider major changes to the plot later on, (which I don’t think anyone has gotten me to do that before. lol.😆)

so thank you.

 

Man is born for the fight, to be forged and molded into a sharper, finer, stronger image of God
