A war is coming between Lukas’ Goddess and an ancient Demon King. The tragic death of his parents shakes his faith, and with the sudden loss of his remaining family it is shattered. Blinded by rage, Lukas turns away from his friends and trains under a deceptive, yet formidable master to hone his magic and prevent the demon’s final objective--obliteration of all life on earth.
War begins! A forged weapon, Lukas rejoins his friends and sets after the Demon King. From a hidden crypt, where evil lies waiting, to the Iowa countryside, they battle to prevent the end of all they know. Lukas must overcome his doubts and allow the Light to work through him--to defeat both the foe of his Goddess and a new more familiar one.

What inspired you to write Soul Dark: Chosen?
"It started with a concept – evil hides in plain sight. However, the one idea gave birth to two more: who/what will rise before it? And at what cost? It was easy coming up with the setting (rural Iowa), and our Grandparent’s real farm, which sadly ceased to exist years ago. We write in several of the Young Adult categories, so character creation was tough – choosing who would and would not make it until the end."
Are you a plotter or
pantser? Tell us your process.
"We are, I guess you would say, “Plantsers.” We start with an
idea, find it’s theme, and create the main characters. We then decide the
beginning, middle, and end. Everything in between though comes out all
willy-nilly and more often than not forces us to change, you guessed it, the
beginning, middle, and end."
What is your preferred
category and genre to write? Why?
"We focus our energies in Young Adult realm (13-20ish). The
actual adult world has enough real drama: raising kids, paying bills, work,
taxes, politics, etc. So we create stories in a
fantasy world, but we have learned through our writing and our own youth
that the challenges facing young people are just as real and difficult for
them. And sometimes they can surprise us with their strength, fortitude, and at
times, their wisdom. Like in the real world today, where the young lady, Greta
Thunberg is leading the world in a race to save our planet from polluters and
government inaction. Agree with her or not that takes a rare sort of courage."
What’s next for you?
"We’ve written the first part of book two in the Soul Dark
series, but sometimes you need a break, so I’m focusing on rewriting my first
creation from many years ago – an epic fantasy that asks a simple question: How
far would a parent go to save their child from themselves?"
