Calm the Earth by Norman Barnes (6 Reviews)    Price verified 6 hours ago

Detective John Chow stood mentally detailing the murder scene. The slumped body of a Calm The Earth programmer sat on the floor. That part resembled other unclaimed cases his boss threw his way, but that was where the similarities stopped. Above, the message blanketing the banks of computer screens on the wall intrigued Chow, "IT'S IN THE PROGRAMMING." Calm The Earth, was a mega-international world rights organization who's rise to prominence was unprecedented. It's connections to world leaders and membership growing into the billions made it stronger than any country. It's founder, Adam Dekker, was worshiped as a god. Chow's mind churned. Why murder this programmer? Why this warning about the program? Would it explain how a not for profit changed the political, economic and environmental ideals of the world? Chow shuddered. He knew this was not an eco-friendly case and he would need help. Lots of it.

A Father's Fears (The Womb Book 2) by Richard B. Knight (7 Reviews)    Price verified 10 hours ago

The second prequel to The Darkness of the Womb (The first being "Clean Hands"), this short story follows Jeffrey Haunt, the father of the future messiah, Aiden, through a series of terrible dreams. Each one is a representation of the anxieties that come attached to being a future father. Will Jeff Haunt be able to come to an understanding and acceptance of fatherhood in his dreams, or will doubt both linger and plague him? Find out in this metaphysical quest through the mind of a future father. Interview with the author Q: So this is the second short story connected to The Darkness of the Womb. How is it different from "Clean Hands"? A: "Clean Hands" was much earlier in the timeline of the Archetypes. The Archetypes actually don't even appear in this story (Though, I have a nixed chapter on my blog (http://knighttakesrook.blogspot.com/2015/09/deleted-preface-to-new-short-story.html) if you want to read it. This story contains the main protagonists of The Darkness of the Womb. It's a story about anxiety and it's more metaphysical than "Clean Hands". There's a lot of dream theory. Q: Do you need to read The Darkness of the Womb to understand this story? A: No. Like "Clean Hands", it's a standalone story. But it does help if you read both "Clean Hands" and The Darkness of the Womb to have a better understanding of these characters. Q: Last question. Will there be any more short stories in the realm of The Darkness of the Womb? A: Not that I can think of, but I'll never say never. I'll probably do a short story for my third novel, The Interdimensional Subwoofer before I do another one for The Darkness of the Womb.
