Twin Souls

Once in a million births, one soul will split into two bodies in an attempt to better aid the world. Dyne and Claire have been seeking each other their whole lives without ever knowing why, growing up in a world ruled by the worst of humanity, always knowing that such a better one was possible. Each suspects they now have only months to live as they resist the fanatical True Blood Order spreading across the planet. Already, the True Bloods have erased much of the material and spiritual knowledge from other cultures while rewriting history, and few remain who know more of reality than what the True Bloods decree to be true.

Claire's orphanage has been in service for several years, taking in what orphans she can whose parents have been murdered by the True Bloods. Meanwhile, Dyne has been secretly using the resources of his father, a local duke, to sabotage the religious organization that claims sole authority to speak for the goddess. Synchronicity brings the two together, and they find in each other the light of Love each hoped desperately for, though never expected to find in the dim world. 

Claire falls for Dyne, because he is committed to fighting for justice and willing to sacrifice everything he has for the lives of others, and Dyne finds in Claire a partner who truly sees him for everything he stands for while she tries to catch everyone who falls through the cracks of society. Dyne offers Claire - without restraint or conditions - the support she has needed in the darkness that they endure. Their bond rapidly grows in strength to the point that no force on earth can keep them apart, and even the veils of death and the gods beyond will never be able to separate them again. The power of their combined Love - focused on so great a mission that passing trifles no longer disturb them - is their strongest weapon in the fight against all forms of injustice.

With True Bloods spies and a ruthless Matron close to discovering their secrets, Dyne and Claire have to act quickly. The mountain kingdom of Ilevian remains the largest bastion of resistance, led by one of the last Ancients, and it remains open to the vast flood of refugees fleeing into its borders. Its leader has helped to transform the former fiefdom into the sole utopia on the planet, a realm where competition has been transformed into cooperation, all are free to pursue their soul's path without wage slavery, and transcendent monks wield the very lifeforce of Creation to easily provide for every life. Together with the mysterious skin-changing jaguars and raven shamans of the jungles – slowly burning under the True Blood advance – all must gather if a better world is to last beyond its infanthood. To further aid them, incorporeal spirits thought long vanquished have begun to return, seeking to benefit those who are changing everything. Humanity is not as alone as the True Bloods want them to believe.

Twin Souls is a novel of epic fantasy, romance, sacred spiritual knowledge, and a revolution of ideas. The story is especially appealing to those who have begun to question everything in their own world, and believe that even when a culture honors the selfish, we do not have to follow that path, but can spend our years in a deeper purpose. If we unite together to build a better world for everyone, perhaps what some deem an impossible dream can become a reality many long to embrace.
