About the Book
A bright flash illuminated the darkened cave. The sound of thunder that followed caused the very ground they were standing on to tremble... "Is everyone all right?" Oren asked. Before anyone could answer, they heard something they could not place, but it seemed as if it were coming from the direction of the entrance. The dim light emanating from Oren's torch shone on Seff's scarred face as he slowly made his way towards the entrance. Suddenly, the noise forcefully echoed within the dark cavern as the entrance fell in with boulders and sealed the startled adventurers inside. Even though he was a few feet from the rocky doorway, Seff instinctively jumped back in order to avoid this landslide. After regaining their balance from this new trembling ground, the covenant of six looked around their new, darker surrounding. "What just happened?" Dov asked in a confused tone. Seff ran forward into the darkness. "We are trapped," he said, panicking as he checked the new wall for any cracks or holes with his hands. There were none. It was completely sealed. Nothing could enter or leave the cavern from the opposite side now. -From End's Beginning Fate or free will? This is a theory which has plagued the mind of man since the dawn of his time. Long ago, in an age when man was beginning his destiny, six people stood atop a mountain. The purpose of these adventures was to enter the cavern before them and find an ancient prize sealed within its rocky embrace. Little did they know that this prize was greater then they could have ever possibly imagined. Their actions throughout this endeavor would prove to have a profound consequence for the human race, a consequence so great that even biblical scriptures have ignored. As the human race continued throughout the years, this secret was spared from them. Now, in our modern day, one obstetrics nurse, Evelyn Bryce, is about to stumble onto this divine truth. Through her actions and the actions of those around her, she begins to suspect that all things are not what they appear to be and a strong force, as old as man himself, holds the answer to his origins.
About the Author
From an early age, Sebastian Williams was always encouraged to express his mind and share his thoughts with others. He is an only child and raised in a Roman Catholic household. This upbringing was somewhat contradicted by his father’s side of the family who were more intent and focused on energy as they actually had a pyramid, where one could spend their nights inside to influence their dreams, in the backyard on their farm. He was guided to question everything around him as he learned that an inquisitive mind was the key to understanding others and their points of view. This has led to some very interesting albeit conflicting views. When he is not writing, he loves to cook. Although no professional chef, he enjoys cooking Cajun and Creole, Greek and Italian foods. He also enjoys collecting Venetian style masks and doing puzzles. He has many influences which range from the classical to modern day. They include such works by: Homer, Dante, Edgar Allen Poe, The Brothers Grimm, George A. Romero, Clive Barker, Wes Craven, Jim Steinman and Meatloaf as well as various myths and religions. His favourite work is the Iliad. As for now, he is currently working on his next novel. You can find him at www.sebastianwilliamsstudio.com
