From Death, Worth
A Novel
Chester Delaney is a recently deceased young man who wakes up in a purgatory with his memories behind a thin veil of mental fog. He travels the afterlife with Moss, a mysterious and soft-spoken yet formidable knight, in an effort to recover these memories – and does. However, the resulting tale isn’t what he expects, and so he resolves to transcend this purgatory by the only means available: performing a deed worthy of the merit of the dead.
- What and Who: A secondary world, low fantasy adventure for those in their late teens and older who are looking for a comfortable step outside of young adult literature.
- A Different Kind of Fantasy: Explore a beautiful and daunting world with a small, dynamic cast that trades grand conflict and political intrigue for a charming expedition into the unknown.
- A Story of Hypothesis: What is Purgatory, really? Could it be a second chance at life, and if that’s true, what could you do differently? And would you risk leaving a possibly eternal existence for a further, darker unknown in whatever comes after?
