For the average
human being, seeing dark auras, hearing ghostly whispers, and
witnessing a contortion in the face of a passerby could easily be
chalked up to hallucinations, daydreams, nightmares; mere illusions
in reality. If we look hard enough, we will find explanations for
such paranormal events. However, in this world, there are humans that
are not so average. These humans are part of a bigger plan. Jesca
Gershon-Sera is entering her sophomore year of college in Marietta
Georgia, her hometown. She holds down a part-time job with her best
friend, her family is close by, and school is going well. Everything
should be perfect. Except, recently Jesca has been experiencing
strange things; hallucinations, nightmares, daydreams that she hasn’t
experienced in years. Jesca attempts to brush them off as stress from
her new semester at school, but the illusions plaguing her reality
intensify. Jesca “illusions in reality” begin manifesting within
her as supernatural strength and abilities. Could she be losing her
mind? Ezra Kahn, a mysterious professor of Jesca’s, happens to be
everywhere she is recently; since the illusions intensified. Along
with the slight fear that Ezra is stalking her, Jesca fears that he
may be the culprit of these illusions. One night, in the heat of one
of Jesca’s grand illusions, Ezra approaches her with an unexpected
revelation up his sleeve. He reveals that she is not losing her mind,
but rather all of the “illusions” in her skewed reality are very
real and cause for inconceivable, catastrophic events to come. Ezra
explains to her that, by birth, she is part of a fellowship of
guardians that have inherited the responsibility to protect our earth
and the human race. In Piercing the Fold: Book 1, “illusions in
reality” are as real as you and I through the eyes of college
student, Jesca Gershon Sera, and a fellowship of guardians
predestined to protect humanity. *The Piercing the Fold series is
intended for Mature Young Adult and Adult readers due to the the
paranormal and unorthodox scientific concepts addressed throughout.
This series contains a rich mixture of the paranormal, science
fiction, romance, adventure, and suspense.
