Red Shadow and Other Stories von Amos Keppler

Lawrence Watros is an ordinary man doing an ordinary office job. There is nothing exciting about it, nothing exciting at all. Each day is the same. Nothing ever changes. His existence is dominated by routine, by a regiment constantly repeating itself. Larry's life sucks. He certainly thinks so and he has found no one disagreeing with him on that. He has always looked at the patterns of his surroundings, never really making a production of it, but that is his forte, if anything is. Now, with one single event the pattern changes, is disrupted beyond recognition. He meets the girl of his dreams, but she isn't exactly miss congeniality. The first thing she tells him is that he's in danger, in mortal danger. It only grows weirder and more dangerous from there. His life changes irrevocably and it keeps changing from that one, startling event. The mighty river of time is blocked and takes a completely different path. This is an anthology of novellas and short stories and short short stories the author has written the last twenty years. It contains two novellas, four short stories and several short short stories.

Amos is a veteran author/artist of forty-six years. He started early and kept going in spite of numerous hurdles on his path. He has published twenty books. In addition to being an author he's a de facto multiartist, a musician, photographer, actor, director and all art forms under the moon, really. He's a radical political activist, a member of Extinction Rebellion working to change society in major ways to a place where true freedom, justice and equality reign, where people are aware of humanity's ancient connection to nature and act on it. He feels like he has just started out and that there is much more to do, many more miles to go before he sleeps.
