Title: | DARK TIME: MORTAL PATH BOOK ONE |
Logline: | After three centuries as an assassin for the ruthless Sumerian demon to whom she sold her soul after being burned at the stake, one woman gives up her powers and must live as a human, atoning for her past sins and seeking a way to banish all demons. |
Pitch: | BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER meets CONSTANTINE |
Writer: | Shirley Kennett |
Genre: | Action | Fantasy | Thriller |
Why to Read: | The protagonist’s journey from immortal assassin to atoning human is undeniably compelling and morally complex – the sort of premise that could fuel multiple seasons of a great television series, which seems like a no-brainer adaptation for this manuscript. The writing is strong and evocative, with creative and artistically disturbing horror imagery throughout that crafts a dark, haunting atmosphere. Despite this, there’s a great undercurrent of fun and levity in the writing that makes this a breeze and a joy to read. |
