In the wake of a lost messiah, an oppressed religious sect known as ‘the
singers of Oros’ are targeted by those in power. A lone singer calling
himself Runo works tirelessly to revive the faith of his people by any means
necessary. Even if it leads to bloody experiments, and cold-hearted
manipulation. A young slave named Cai is called on by a philosopher to aid
in a catalogue of the wealthiest families in Grecuria, starting with the
owner of the library where he works. On his journey he must confront a past
that isn’t his own. Lastly, Sailing on a sky ship surrounded by merchants,
Mele Amahki was given passage to begin a new life. However, everything
changes when their pink sky turns blue, and they find themselves in a new,
unexpected world where things are much the same as back home, except her
people do not exist. She finds herself thrust into positions of power,
entirely unsure of what is best for her crew. Knowledge, religion, power,
and blood run through the veins of the Grecurian islands. But through three
headstrong individuals, the veins will be cut, and darkness will stain the
sea.
About Paul Carver Williams:
An LGBTQ, Black-Latino young adult with an eclectic taste in music, Paul
Williams has struggled with his identity, eventually leading to mental
illness. However, with support from his siblings, he gained new confidence
to express his inner emotions through art and writing. At age seventeen, he
published his first book. In 2018, along with his friend, Icesis Street,
Paul won the technology Student Association (TSA) 1st place State award for
Children's storybooks. He is now working endlessly to carve a place for
himself among the creative professionals and pave the way for other talented
‘students’ of art and literature.
In his newest book, Shadow of Hades, Williams reveals themes of grief,
often what we commonly associate with death. He hopes readers are moved to
examine their lives on a smaller scale, feel invited to empathize with all
aspects of the world and see the magical playground that is our shared
universe. The world seemed uniquely grim at the time Williams wrote Shadow
of Hades, and that darkness is nuanced in the characters, however, he still
provides a glimmer of hope to the readers for a world that desperately needs
it and that we should all keep close to our hearts.

Please try not to spam posts with the same comments over and over again. Authors like seeing thoughtful comments about their books, not the same old, "I like the cover" or "sounds good" comments. While that is nice, putting some real thought and effort in is appreciated. Thank you.
