Book excerpt: An intensely erotic, epic love story that goes into and beyond the original Greek myths - THE HUNTER OF THE DEAD ... and The Kiss of Persephone - returns to the classical tale of Hades and Persephone for a fresh look from a thoughtfully considered perspective. What begins as an act of petty malice by Zeus changes the whole world when he instigates the fateful encounter between the fearsome hunter Eros and the Lord of the Underworld Hades that leads to the abduction of Kore. Unable to change her fate, Kore becomes Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, arbitrator between the realms of the Living and the Dead, and the Consort of Hades. Their union is tested by the fateful consequences when a foul entity - UPIR LIKHYI - escapes the Underworld and becomes Vampyr, one who is determined to remain free even if it means usurping the Underworld and seizing Persephone for himself. This is a darker, companion novel to the comedy DEUS EX MACHINA: A DIVINE COMEDY. ISBN - 978-0-9789507-9-8
