The Resurrection Tower series is dark fantasy, combining horror themes with modern, urban fantasy characters. Inspirations include Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, J.R.R. Tolkien and more. Series Hook: "The Resurrection Tower lies in wait at the end of a long road, a journey between awake and asleep, life and death ... between the heavens and the hells. It has stood watch through numerous wars on numerous planes. No one knows why. Yet the tower must be understood if this world and others are to be saved." Synopsis: When the Companions reach Al'Taara, they face dangers from outside the towering walls . . . and from within. Even as deathlords plot the destruction of the city, its citizens are slowly being transformed into hideous creatures that are driven by a vast and screaming hunger. The Companions walk the nightmares of vanished civilizations, and the dead whisper secrets to Kara Kinfolk, but she and those with her have little time to solve the riddles of Al'Taara before Tarsis the Artificer comes another step closer to their world. In Book Four of The Resurrection Tower series, the companions reach the elven city of Al'Taara, but there they not only face dangers from outside the towering walls ... but also from within. Even as deathlords plot the destruction of the city, its citizens are slowly being transformed into hideous creatures by an ancient curse. Kara Kinfolk must walk the nightmares of vanished civilizations, where the dead whisper secrets to her, but she and those with her have little time to solve the riddles of Al'Taara before Tarsis the Artificer comes another step closer to their world. It is the aggravating horror story when the characters make the worst possible decisions. But what happens when they make all the right choices ... and still the worst threatens to befall them? Each novel in the The Resurrection Tower fantasy series brings a different mix of epic fantasy quests and horror elements, populated with urban fantasy characters. All the books can be read as stand alone stories that fit into a larger tale, featuring characters new and old, or you can dive in right at the start What readers are saying: "Full of amusing banter, bone-chilling horrors and no-holds-barred sex scenes, book four never fails to entertain." The characters are just - as Kara would say herself - awesome " "After this super-suspenseful instalment, I can't wait to see what comes next... in Holgate's terrifying fantasy realm." "Overall this is a fantastically entertaining read. Highly recommended "
