About the
Book:
This is
when it will change.
For them.
For us. For everyone.
Destiny,
freewill, intent, magic, science, life, everything.
This is
when all those named gods will fight to the end.
This world and all worlds are fated to
end. The prophet, Jychanumun, has tried to prevent it. He has spent millennia
walking between life and death to find a way. The powerful Shaa-kutu have tried
to prevent it. They have fought with wits and weapons and given their all.
Despite their best, nothing seems capable of stopping the formidable Arrunn
from completing his final fateful move. So, can Tachra change that fate?
Tachra stands between shadow and light.
She has no tools or weapons, only the Earth power and true-vision. Perhaps her
fellow humans will ascend to greater knowledge and unlock a new discovery. Or,
if she can decipher the Book of Fate, perhaps that will hold a key to saving
them all. But when that last prophecy comes, will she make the right choice?
After all, that fate has already been
written:
"If any survive, it will be known as
the three day darkness. If none survive, the darkness will swallow all."
Excerpt from Time: The Immortal Divide
The passageway had
widened to a large square, clad entirely in matte-black stone that seemed to draw in any light. It was dark,
almost black. I sensed shadows. I sensed deeper shadow. I sensed shadows within
shadow.
At the end of the
square, sitting, was Meah. She was tense, agitated, and defensive. Low growling
sounds were coming from her throat. Her fur had risen to bristles. She was
facing a direction I could not see. Her eyes had narrowed. She did not like
what she was seeing, but she would not look away.
“When you also see,”
Viir spoke, “do not fret. You are quite safe.” I walked forward to stand beside
Meah.
I looked.
By the skies! A
Nigh-kutu!
Before me was a
Nigh-kutu imprisoned. Several transparent energy walls and several walls of
metal bars stood between us. Nevertheless, my inner defensiveness immediately
rose, creating another barrier between the creature and Meah and I. He looked
fearsome.
The huge black kutu
crouched at the back of a large room. His broad black wings were splayed out,
undulating in time to the slow, tense rhythm of his deep breaths. I could
hear guttural growling as he breathed.
Every breath he exhaled released pent up, furious tension. His hands were
tethered by golden rope. The rope was secured to the walls behind him. His pure
black energy darkened the space around him. He was fully dressed in war wear.
His black skin trousers tucked into strong boots with straps around his legs
and body where once he would have kept weaponry. He was muscular, and emitted
the power of one of the most formidable Nigh- kutu warriors.
The Nigh-kutu felt my
presence. He looked up. His eyes flashed with shadow-light. His expression was
full of hate. His breathing and growling did not change. He just held my stare with restrained fury. He wanted to kill me.
He wanted to kill us all.
Originally trained as an illustrator and
designer at Saint Martins School of Art and at Middlesex University, KS Turner
turned to fiction when she saw the limitless possibilities of connectivity it
offered. Before her shift in career, she worked as a fashion designer for major
high-street brands, a graphic designer for musicians, and a product designer
for corporations, as well as dabbling with designing technology, sustainable
energy, and textiles.
A vivid series of dreams were the
inspiration for the Chronicles of Fate and Choice books. Kate initially tried
illustrating her dreams, but found the medium too limiting for the story she
had seen, so began writing. At first she didn’t have any intention of writing
novels, but the books soon started to come together.
Her first two novels, Before the Gods,
and Tumultus, were featured in many magazines, won book of the month with
Spirit and Destiny magazine, fantasy of the year with Bookbag, and the ‘Must
Read Now’ awards with SciFiNow magazine.
When Kate isn't writing, she draws,
paints and sculpts as well as studying maths, science, theology and philosophy.
She loves to play music, explore, nurture nature and spend time with friends
and family. She lives in Somerset.
