Promises Divined
A Fantasy Blog Novel
by D.L. McAlpin
Book I of The Promises Series, Promises Divined is the story of a tortured soul,
the imprisoned spirit he loves, the fallen angel
he detests, and the mortals
unfortunate enough to be a part of it all.
Promises Divined tells the story of the eternal
soul Adanata. He is the Keeper of the Spirit Walkers, a line of Cherokee men with supernatural powers dating back more than
5,000 years. The Spirit Walkers have a single mission–to journey to The Cavern of the Spirits and unlock The Spirit of Knowledge
from the prison to which she’s been confined since the time of The Great Flood. More than a thousand men have died in the quest.
As
the Nineteenth Century begins, the Spirit Walkers face new challenges as encroachment by Whites increasingly threatens their people
and their homeland. Adanata recognizes an even bigger threat hurtling toward Earth from a place beyond
the stars. Only
The Spirit of Knowledge can save the planet–and time is running out.
Adanata has little faith in David McAllister of Early Sun
Village, the current Spirit Walker
and the most frustrating human to ever draw breath. But there is no time to make another.
David
must succeed or Earth will perish.
