“There are so many stories that sound perfectly true, but are not. And there are so many stories that sound like fantasy but are actually true. This is one of those.”
If you don’t stop reading now, I will tell you a true story about worlds you probably don’t believe in, about beauty you may doubt is possible, and about dangers so horrible that your ancestors locked them in boxes and buried them deep in the memory of your people so you won’t have to think about them… unless and until they someday come for you.
You don’t need to hear this story if you don’t want to. So, if the idea of it frightens you, stop reading now, close your eyes, and go to sleep.

The Unseen Lands
It is a strange thing to slip through a hole in the world. Sometimes it can feel like flying, like getting swept into the sky on enchanted winds. But other times, depending on where your particular hole in the world leads, it feels like falling. For a very long time. Through a terrible storm. At night.

Reviews
Praise for Stephen T. Harper's Web of Souls and the Kings X Saga
“Has it all! Terrific mixed genre... it's a full-meal-deal... completely engaging from beginning to end.” — NY Times and USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Tamara Rose Blodgett
“...belongs to that rare breed of books whose seemingly high-concept premise shields a tightly crafted and deeply affecting story. Harper expertly balances character and conspiracy in a universe that will grab you from the very first chapter.” — Line Zero Magazine
“..like a modern, real-world twist on Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. It takes the previous ages of the earth notion... cuts away all the fantasy stuff and very convincingly brings the ring into our world. To Los Angeles, in fact.” — Amazon Reader Review
“This is a ‘stand up and take notice’ story from a truly gifted writer. The most original adventure I’ve seen in years. "The Matrix" crossed with "The Da Vinci Code." Web of Souls is dark, beautiful, and very provocative. I’ve had the story stuck in my head since the first time I read it.” — Ken Miller, Film and TV Producer
“Stephen T. Harper is a master of words. I stayed awake all night to finish, heart pounding, eyes bulging with every new twist, and the ending almost killed me!” — The Paperback Pursuer
“This is a very well-thought-out book with lots of suspense, twists, and history. I give it 5 stars. If you love a good suspense/thriller, you'll love this book!” — Paranormal Opinion
“This book has grabbed me. ...really well written and I liked the author's style. Big thumbs up!” — Booked Up
“...starts out mid-action and doesn't seem to slow down even when the author is describing delicate women in quiet moments with the men they care for... You won't be sorry.” — Into The Morning Reads
