Clay Middleton has spent decades painting remote landscapes in the vast, unforgiving deserts of the Southwest, his only companions the wind and the creatures of the wild. People call him a madman, and he's fine with that. But when his estranged daughter abandons her son to his care, solitude is no longer an option. Then the unthinkable happens--his grandson is kidnapped by mythical beings that should not exist. Now, thrust into an unwanted alliance with a garrulous paranormal investigator, Clay must travel through dying Earths where monsters walk, time is fractured, and nightmares come to life. The stakes? His grandson's life and the horrific transformation of reality itself. The clock is ticking--and Clay is running out of time. "The Serpents of Eden" is an electrifying fusion of dark fantasy, visceral horror, and post-apocalyptic odyssey. R.W. Goldsmith weaves a tale brimming with gallows humor, relentless action, and heart-wrenching stakes, as Clay confronts nightmarish landscapes and deadly foes in a desperate bid to reclaim what's been stolen. From the ashes of ruined worlds to the edge of existence itself, this is a story of resilience, redemption, and the bonds of friendship and family. At 422 pages, it's a wild, unforgettable descent into the unknown--perfect for readers who crave adventure laced with terror and soul.
