The Insidious Vine: Tales from the Archetypes - Volume 1: The Novice

'These are indeed the strangest of times' - perhaps, therefore, it is fortunate the 'Archetypes' have discovered their voice - they want us to see our 'truth' - they want to save us? This novel, the first in a trilogy, is a dystopian, psychological drama exploring perspectives of truth through the ordinary daily existence of people - people like you and me. Creating a tapestry of 'wyrdness' - the book is a fable hiding an alternative reality - an underlying truth that emerges behind each character within each chapter as it makes a journey from the one to the other - disturbing yet oddly humorous. As the 'Reviewer' said - "the way this book holds up a mirror to my own life, sometimes quite painfully, makes for not just a good, but a truly extra-ordinary piece of literature. I rarely have come across something as beautiful and unsettling as this - a truly amazing piece of work"
