Award-Winning Series “LIT” and its Sequel “ASCENT” Unveil a Haunting Realm of the Supernatural and Paranormal
In the darkest recesses of the human psyche, where shadows dance, and terror thrive, Mark Anthony weaves a masterful tale that promises to redefine horror and dark fantasy. Launching the award-winning psychological horror series “LIT,” followed by its much-anticipated sequel “ASCENT,” Anthony offers readers a chilling glimpse into macabre realities and the malevolent entities that inhabit them.
The inspiration for these works came from Anthony’s own experience during the tumultuous times of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a registered nurse, he witnessed firsthand the tension and dread that enveloped the globe. “If I was going to write something unsettling, the atmosphere was right,” he reflects. Mark Anthony’s love for the supernatural and paranormal is evident. He crafts dynamic, contemporary tales that keep readers on the edge of their seats.
“LIT” delves deep into the existence of Leviathans – sinister beings that latch onto the souls of the vulnerable. Feeding off their emotions, these entities wait for the opportune moment when anger reveals a target, dooming them to eternal anguish. The tale revolves around three Conduits battling their inner monsters, facing fear, loss, and the looming event of the Circle where they become the hunted.
“ASCENT” picks up in the aftermath of the Circle. Ellie, Josh, and Sam find themselves in a world where many suffer like them. As they navigate their haunting realities, the enigmatic Mika, with his Pantheon of Conduits, seeks a legend of ancient evil. But a shift is on the horizon, as another malevolence emerges and the boundary between Conduit and Leviathan becomes blurred.
Both novels have garnered significant acclaim, with Readers Favourite commenting, “Mark Anthony is truly on a path to becoming the next-generation master of suspense.” Literary Titan adds, “A hauntingly intriguing premise solidifies this installment as a tour de force in its genre.”
For those ready to embark on a heart-stopping journey into the supernatural, “LIT” and “ASCENT” promise a reading experience like no other. The books are available on Amazon and the author’s website authormarkanthony.com.
