A genre-busting book

book cover infographic“Wonderfully imaginative! “

The old stories of man’s rebellion against God to find himself are given a new twist in this novel which combines Greek mythology with the Book of Genesis set against a backdrop of modern technology.  Forces are at work to awaken the divine spark inside a seemingly ordinary girl:  goddess-incarnate-as-woman yet pawn of greater powers, Maia must tread carefully lest her search lead her to open doors that were not meant to be reopened.  Here is Eve again tempted to repeat the act which caused that terrible tragedy:  the Great Fall from Grace … or is it the path to redemption?

I am reminded of Tolkien’s Hiding of Valinor, of C.S. Lewis’ “Perelandra” and of Guillermo del Toro’s “Pan’ Labyrinth.”  The book made me aware quite forcefully that another world does exist beside our own and only with eyes unveiled can we hope to get a glimpse of it.  But as there are those who would once more rip down the veil itself to reveal what lies hidden, the heart is suddenly gripped with foreboding lest the time be not yet ripe for such a revelation.  Are we ready to reclaim what we once rejected?  The story of the Seven Sisters is our story, too.  I can’t wait for the second book!” – Myra B.

Brimming with mystery and calling for adventure, P. Milisande’s first book ‘As Above So Below: Veil Over Atlantis’  will enthrall readers.

The first installment of an already anticipated book series, ‘As Above So Below: Veil Over Atlantis’ tells the tale of Maia, an intrepid soul looking for answers to questions she’s not yet sure why she’s asking—or what those questions are to begin with. Diving deep into the ocean of mystery, she finds herself looking deeper into her own person, only to find the answers simply lead to more questions—about herself, about her father, about the world around her, about her past and her future.

With Maia is her best friend Elle, a fellow intrepid soul and an activator by heart, she pushes Maia to break boundaries. Living her life one emotion and one color at a time, she joins Maia in her quest for answers, not knowing that their pasts and futures are deeply intertwined.

As the stars gave direction in the darkness of the night, the ocean floors revealed more to be discovered. “With its discovery, the past threatens once again to re-enact its painful shattering.” Will Maia finally find the answers to quell her deepest fears, her innermost longings?

Utilizing the unending expanse of one’s imagination, P. Milisande taps into the reader’s creative soul, bringing them into a journey from one reality to another—showing realms of darkness and of light—in order to find the courage to explore, to discover more realms from chapter to another, and perhaps to seek more questions to fuel adventure.

4 Thoughts on “A genre-busting book

  1. You’re blogging again! And you have a book out pa!

    I’m super dense talaga. I bought the book on Amazon and it took me a while to realize that you wrote it.

    I’m halfway through and the excitement is building up. It’s heartbreaking that there will be more books because I want to know how the story will be resolved, if there really is something under the sea. Bitin much?! I’m really enjoying the book and will be bugging you (pero politely naman) for the next ones 🙂

  2. The novel is set in a dystopian near-future that seems like our worst nightmares come true. There are no aliens, and not much in the way of science fictional stuff. Call it speculative fiction, a climate thriller, a genre-busting explosion of plot and red hot prose.

    Hi Jill! Thanks for visiting 🙂 And yes, I’m beyond thrilled that I did it. I just have so much going on in terms of work and study but all I really want to do is write. Write! It’s both funny and sad that I couldn’t (sigh). Sorry it’s bitin much haha.. More under-the-sea mysteries in the next books. Now, I just need to find the time to sit down and write. Whew. Again, thanks so much for reading it my dear! 🙂
