GENESIS is a dark fantasy. A beginning of all things in an epic story called GOD'S CHAIN. GOD'S CHAIN is not a religious story, it is a classic tale of light against darkness, good against evil. In his inaugural novel, Nikolaus Baker takes the reader through a hidden fantasy world that revives an enigma that has endured for centuries. There is an ancient quest that continues for a hidden knowledge that brings power, corruption, and death in a dark tale that originates in the remote Scottish village of Mauchline where tranquillity is about to change when a freak earthquake hits and precipitates a dramatic fall in temperature. In the Vatican, secrecy surrounds an untraceable security breach in the computerised nerve-centre of papal authority. This has consequences for the suspect Cardinal Giovanni Dalla Gassa. He believes in the legendary links to God, each link hidden in different locations and thought to exhibit magical and powerful properties. Powers that would tip the cosmic and spiritual balance in favour of the holder. He must have them all. The mystery thickens with the disappearance of a senior I.T. systems administrator Michaelangelo and the torment of his close friend and colleague I.T. expert Francesca DeRose. Chased for her life, she unknowingly becomes lost inside the catacombs where the cursed Abaddon Clerics lurk... the unliving. What links the hub of Catholicism with what was once the heart of covenanting Scotland? The prophecy. Heed it well. GENESIS is a dark fantasy wrapped within layers of an enigma, tied up by networks and packaged in history. Readers will enjoy this fast-moving action and fascinating twists that Baker describes with vivacity and invention. Is this really a holy mission to find God or is it a supernatural grail quest to the grave...

This is the time of the prophecy. A dark fantasy that continues the search for the link to God inside the Amazon. DEVIL'S TEMPLE, is not a religious story. It is a dark tale of fate and legend, of feared words spoken in whispers of power and mystery. A Shaman's grim forewarnings tell a tale of a Temple that appears every five hundred years deep inside the jungle, and this is such a year! On the other side of the world, a civilian expedition becomes lost inside one of the most unforgiving places on earth, Amazonia. Does the truth lie within this remorseless rainforest? Suddenly, horror strikes when a scientist is killed in an act of human sacrifice. The death toll continues to rise, and nothing makes sense anymore as friendships stretch to breaking point and religious tensions begin to tighten. Who or what is killing them? Inside the Temple, a tapestry of death traps lay waiting. If these don't get them then horrific life-forms from another world surely will. Would anyone be found alive to rescue? An enormous creature bursts out from a turbulent storm above the rainforest, a thing born unto the wing high in the air featherless, huge and black and completely bare, it uttered an unearthly high-pitched scream that would make a man quake. DEATH was the beasts' name. In-flight, the creature opened to full wingspan wider than an aircraft, as it navigated over this new landmass with ease and where DEATH flew, death followed... Excerpt1: "What is going on up there Ale? Who is screaming!" Cesare asked with growing worry. Macabre events were unfolding and their eyes were glued to the distance. They could see small silhouettes crouching and everyone seemed to be holding their ears. Alessandro and Cesare began to see a small blue spherical energy ball appearing, and hovering in mid-air. The men guessed that everyone up there was in great danger, the orb splashed the darkness away from around it. The thing displayed raw power, swamping a deep luminous blanket of blue-violet colour over the Temple stone. Reeling backward involuntarily, both men staggered when a sharp light flashed powerfully through everyone's bodies on the steps! In that split-second flash, Alessandro and Cesare could see the people's transparent bodies and skeletons, silhouetted briefly in a weird blue light. Both men gasped loudly, when a massive expansion of pure energy happened, so sudden and so quick. They witnessed Beppi become engulfed. The power catapulted the helpless man into the air and held him up high like a blazing star, screaming. "Oh God! Look!" Cesare called out in grim abhorrence, nobody spared the grim details of the victim's flesh bubbling; Beppi's body wriggled and popped like a sausage on a barbeque. Paralysed, everyone watched helplessly, and nobody could save him. "It's Beppi! It's got Beppi! It's roasting him alive!" Yelling like a maniac, Alessandro's own sanity screamed out in disbelief.
