There are many science fiction books on the market right now; all of them tend to follow a fairly similar model of rather shallow characterisation, poor plotting and a tedious storyline that never seems to go anywhere. James Stewart's The Realm of the Dead is a change from all of that, however.

Our world is but one of many realms; lying underneath the ground, buried for eternity, is the Realm of the Dead: a place of pain, suffering, misery and unceasing horror.

Using ideas pioneered by some of the greatest genre-writers of the day - Stephen King, James Herbert and Lawrence Miles - The Realm of the Dead is a thrilling novella from start to finish.

Lying at the core of this world is Iblis, the Destroyer of Worlds and the serpent responsible for the downfall of humanity in the Garden of Eden.

With fascinating, diverse characters, a rich world full of mystery and an intriguing plot - taking elements from the major world mythologies and blending them together - filled with twists, turns and shocks.

To gain his freedom, he will destroy lives and see in the destruction of the world. Unless one little girl - unaware of her power, unaware of the potential she has - can stop him.
