Meanwhile, Lords Imagination and Logic, who are constantly at war within the universal mind, are fighting over the future of the baby. Now, only Marigold can decide her child's ultimate fate by journeying inside his subconscious and convincing him to want to live.Interview With the AuthorQ. What makes The Darkness of the Womb different from other dark fantasy novelsThere are a lot of ways, really. Some people have called this story "Lovecraftian" in nature. There are a lot of metaphysical aspects involved that distance it a bit from horror, and it adds a psychological layer to it. There is also the matter of the Archetypes, which gives it an almost Sandman feel if you've ever read Neil Gaiman's famous series. His work influenced me heavily.Q. Is there also a spiritual aspect to these books?There definitely is. One can look at this book in a lot of ways. There is definitely the theological aspect of where does religion and belief come from. But I also approach it in a manner that doesn't condescend the reader. If you believe in a God, cool. If you don't, also cool. Either way, there is definitely something in our mind that exists and lives. Consider it God, Imagination, or what have you. Religion and belief certainly came from somewhere.Q.There are also horror elements in this book, correct?Indeed. There are some pretty grisly, violent scenes in this book. I wouldn't recommend it for the young adult crowd. To read more of the story, check out my free ebook, Clean Hands. It's a short story that adds a great deal to the characters
