  • THE BOOK OF THE DEAD

    Robert Trainor

    Paperback (Independently published, July 17, 2014)
    NOTE: This book can also be purchased with four other novels of mine for $2.99 in a book entitled 5 Novels. The Book of the Dead is also contained in Dark Tales, which is a $2.99 anthology of my four most recent novels. Death stalks the land in this bizarre tale from the underworld. Most of us worry about death from time to time, especially as we get older. Sometimes, it can seem like we’re on a conveyor belt that’s moving us all towards a giant execution chamber. Those who are young have just been put onto the conveyor belt and have too much drama going on in their lives to be seriously concerned about what awaits at the end of the line. But for those who are older, the execution chamber looms. What lies behind that door that every human being passes through, never to be seen or heard from again? Herein, lies the greatest mystery of them all. And now, it’s finally time…one is being led to the door, and there is no possibility of turning back…no reprieve will be granted… The door swings open, and one steps inside. Will all of our fears about death prove to be real? Will we, to our horror, discover that the theories of religion are nothing but fairy tales and that we’re just a very small part of the evolutionary chain that no longer has any value? Or is death different than anything we could ever have imagined? Welcome to The Book of the Dead.

    NishaThey called me Angel of Death, but I am something else. Someone else. That is, if you believe the Egyptian desert god, Seth, who haunted my dreams since I can think. Sounds crazy, huh? I, too, thought I was insane. Broken beyond repair.But—When Seth’s followers—the Black Flags—invaded our annual Halloween ball and slaughtered half the town, my nightmares became reality. Those crazy bastards think I’m the reincarnation of Nebt-Het, the Egyptian goddess of protection, that I can help Seth get his immortality back. It’s why they pushed my cousin, Izzy, through a portal to the Underworld, knowing I had no choice but to follow her. Now, I’m trapped in this godforsaken place, forced to conquer all twelve caverns, with Seth by my side. BlazeI was born into a Traveler clan. Grew up with tales of warriors and magic. I thought it was all bullshit. Fairytales. Until—Nisha Blake, the girl of my dreams, caused an earth quake. And an Egyptian God sent his crazy disciples to kill half the town. I failed to protect Nisha. Couldn’t stop her from going after her cousin, from walking right into hell. Now, she’s in Seth’s world, bound to do what he wishes. Our only chance, to get the girls back, is to find The Book of the Dead—some long lost magic tome, no one has seen or heard of in ages. Wish us luck. We’ll need it.

    eBook (Walker Books US, Sept. 8, 2020)
    Jake Green is dead. Or he might as well be when he mistakenly accepts a package from the Embassy of the Dead in this hilarious adventure of the afterlife, the first in a series.When Jake Green opens a mysterious box containing a severed finger, he accidentally summons a grim reaper intent on dragging him to the Eternal Void (yes, it’s as fatal as it sounds). Now Jake is running for his life. Luckily, he has a knack for talking to ghosts, which just might help him survive long enough to reach the Embassy of the Dead and plead his case. With the help of a prankster poltergeist and a dead undertaker, Jake dodges fearsome undead creatures, discovers his own ghostly abilities, and gets excused from the school field trip due to a terrible (and made-up) bout of diarrhea. But the Embassy has its own problems, and Jake must be very careful where he places his trust—in both the living and the dead. With a plot that zips and a colorful cast of characters, this delightful new series delivers laughs and shivers in equal measure.
