Where the Shadows Meet the Light

WHERE THE SHADOWS MEET THE LIGHT is VOLUME ONE of THE CREATION SERIES, in an epic fantasy with elements of science fiction. Fourteen characters, led by an ancient Prophecy, come together to defeat a dictator who is threatening the freedom of all peoples and magical creatures on earth. Each character has a birthmark on their body of an animal or symbol, giving them insights into their purpose in the group of Chosen Ones. The voice of the story is constantly changing from each character's viewpoint, representing dozens of perspectives from farmers, shepherds, sorceresses, wizards, shamans, doctors, scientists, bards, royalty, servants, soldiers, captains, unicorns, elves, dwarves, rocks, crystals, trees, animals, and more. These dramatically unique characters come together despite their differences for the Greater Good, in the Creation Series.BOOK REVIEWS: "Where the Shadows Meet the Light is a brilliant narrative, blending portions of history, magic, and earth sciences, to paint a picture of what life just after Creation might have been like. Featuring Shamanism, Christianity, Jewry, mythical creatures, and light and dark magic, this epic fantasy explores our origins, and lays the groundwork of why things may be the way they are today. Told from many viewpoints-including animals-one gets a full picture of that colorful life. My favorite is the viewpoint of the wolf, and how he "sees" humans and the things we do. Where the Shadows Meet the Light is a spirited read for those liking fantasy mixed with history, and a touch of magic!" --Darmar Publishing, New York City"Where the Shadows Meet the Light is a beautifully written and seamless blend of fantasy, adventure, mystery, psychology, and spirituality. The full story itself is unique, with sub-stories based on ancient and magical times. Throughout the novel, Wolfe provides a refreshing outlook on humanity, with interlacing themes on the nature humanity, magical beings, romance, danger, and destiny.As a psychotherapist, it is a psychological aspect within the novel which most fascinates me. Wolfe's unique style of writing eloquently portrays first-person perspectives of every character in the novel. Thus, the reader is able to perceive deeper thoughts and personality structures of these characters. Wolfe neatly incorporates and explains viewpoints and belief systems from Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, ancient Celtic spiritualism, Native American spiritualism, and New Age spiritualism, in clean and insightful ways. Throughout the novel it becomes increasingly clear how intentions, thoughts and actions don't always line up; how misunderstandings and misinterpretations occur; and how visions can be directive or misleading. It becomes clear why the differences between peoples and beings are both vital and valuable. Perspective becomes multi-layered, vibrant, palpable.Where the Shadows Meet the Light also delves deeply into the theme of trauma, not only from the viewpoint of the victim, but also from that of the perpetrator. This is painful and gut-wrenching-but necessary because it reaches into the core duality of humanity. Wolfe's unique ability to engage the reader to witness such a variety of perspectives is reminiscent of this author's previous publishing's, Our Invisible Neighbors, and The Resurrected Dream, and is likely to be one of her trademarks as in author." -Integrated Wellness and Strategies, LLC, Denver, Colorado
