Of all the beings that have lived on Earth, what if just a few had
the power to make new realities, according to their desires? What
would they create? The Second Emanation. A shadow world where
ancient creatures persist, where humanity's dominance is far less
certain, where wonder competes with horror. A world like an autumn
forest, its realities as multiple and layered as fallen leaves. The
world that gives us our gods.
In "Nolander," the Second Emanation crosses paths with a seemingly
ordinary young woman from the American Midwest. It'll never be the
same again.
Amateur photographer Beth Ryder sees plenty wrong with her life.
At twenty-three, she feels trapped in her small Wisconsin town. The
guy she's been seeing lately wants nothing more to do with her, and
her sister-in-law is doing her best to push Beth out of the family.
Then one day, Beth takes a picture no one can explain. Her quest
for answers leads her far from her small-town roots and opens her
eyes to the unseen world around her. Sucked into a dangerous
organization responsible for policing visitors from Earth's shadow
world, Beth discovers that humanity is far from alone, and that its
fellow creatures, many endowed with disturbing abilities, do not
wish it well.
As events spin out of her control, Beth must leave her restrictive
but safe life behind. Thrown into a frightening new world, she
struggles not to surrender more than she can bear to lose, and not
to become something she can't bear to be.
