About this series
The Doors of the Ancients have been found, and Jake's life will never be the same again.
Before Jake can settle into a promising new life, another one of his friends is taken through a portal by creatures from one of the other worlds, and Jake is left with no hope... until contact is made. But now Shadow Creek is saturated with enemies coming at Jake from all sides, each trying to find out his closely-guarded secret.
With only the slightest shred of hope, Jake relies on his newfound friends to help him on an insane quest to rescue the abducted. And as impossible as he imagines the quest might be, even with his newly-acquired powers, he has no idea of the extent of danger he is up against when he goes searching through hostile worlds. It seems likely that either his friendships will be torn apart by the stress of savage circumstances... or his friends will be torn apart by savage creatures. And even Jake might become a victim of Abduction.
Titles in the series (3)
- Shadow Creek: The Doors of the Ancients, Book 1
Maybe there's something in the water... or maybe it's just that secrets and fear bring out the worst in people, but the residents of the small forest town of Shadow Creek are not quite normal. Following a tragic accident, Jake, a timid 15-year-old, now stuck with his abusive stepfather, is forced to move to Shadow Creek and into a small house that terrifies the locals and has been dubbed by them as The Haunted Cottage. The mysterious cottage, Jake finds, was once owned by his biological father, and he soon acquires clues, left behind by his father, that lead him to discover the secret of the cottage. Only a handful of people know about the Doors of the Ancients, and discovering these portals to different and often dangerous worlds is more of a curse than a blessing. But is Jake desperate enough to overcome his fear and be free from the tyranny of his stepfather and the madness of Shadow Creek? Is he desperate enough to believe in the messages left behind by his father, a man who the locals believe to be a demon? Could a timid boy be reckless enough to unravel the secrets of Shadow Creek?
- The Seed: The Doors of the Ancients, Book 3
Book 3 of The Doors of the Ancients series. After the death and mayhem on their final night in Shadow Creek, Jake and his friends are forced to flee from Earth, escaping through a portal and running from both his enemies and the law... but neither will give up so easily. Amid a twisted tangle of deception, Jake, his friends, and some new allies each wonder who is doing the manipulating and who is telling the truth as they desperately try to escape from the wrath of Charles Dorning. And with Jake still devastated over the loss of one of his closest friends, his leadership among his group is constantly being questioned, and for good reason; Jake is forced to make rash decisions under duress, and his mysterious new mentor might not have his best interests in mind. The group quickly find themselves in constantly worsening situations, the stress amongst them only compounds their problems, and the final destination they seek is every bit as hostile as they were promised it was going to be, made even worse by a dangerous being among them; a being known as The Seed.
