Alchemy now LIVE! on Amazon

Alchemy, the sequel to Synchronicity and Psycons and Grace Book 2, is now live on Amazon.

After leaving Travis in a world changed seemingly for the better, Alchemy quickly demonstrates that his life isn’t going to be so simple. This is a story of mental illness, existentialism and survival viewed through the lens of Jungian psychology. I think the book description on Amazon does it justice:

Travis Edison has the career and family he always wanted. Not a whiff of the paranoia that dogged him before the accident. But first a nosy stranger and then the shadow-people begin to unravel him. As mental illness emerges, the love of his life rallies the traditional support. Travis acquiesces… until a teenage madman and his vagrant sidekick prove to be more effective help.

Marie-Louise von Franz is a Jung protégé, dead since 1998 and freshly reconstituted in her Maker’s existential playground. An expert in the symbolism of alchemy, she believes it a strange talent to apply to Travis’s predicament. After Jung’s timely appearance, the formidable psycho-analytical duo finds the keys to helping him. That is, until the mentor-mentee roles reverse and Jung struggles to adapt.

As the psychological incursion begins, Travis seeks the courage and clarity of mind to address it. Whatever ‘it’ is. Then his vanquished nemesis reappears with an olive branch, a stolen body and a burdensome secret. Travis can either trust or die. And if he dies, we die.

Thank you for joining me on this writing journey! I hope you enjoy Alchemy. You can look forward to the conclusion of the series in 2021.
