  • Cave of Bones

    Isaac O'Keeffe

    language (Stephen Jackson, Dec. 20, 2015)
    There are forces that exist at the edge of consciousness and if everything is aligned just right, you may catch glimpses of them as they hover above, or lope, slither, or skitter around you. Tyler Willis discovered they exist in that space of the mind forming The Borderlands. It lies between what he knew as the real world and the immense stretches of a secret and hidden world that he was destined to enter.Something unusual happened to Tyler Willis. The experience tore open the gate of the Borderlands and he stepped through into the unknown. Having a clear purpose rescued him from beings whose sole aim was to distract or destroy him. It allowed him to attract allies, defeat enemies, and secure a priceless treasure, not for himself, but for another.At first, Tyler Willis viewed his life as a circle of light on a darkened stage. After his journey through the Cave of Bones, he realized the darkness outside of that lighted circle stood for what he did not understand and for what he feared most.Once his first journey was over, he would undertake two more daring walkabouts into the Cave of the Spirit Walkers and into the Cave of the Ancestors to push back against that darkness and enlarge his circle of light.We will accompany Tyler on his journeys of discovery. He starts out as a 12-year-old youth full of self-doubt, fear, and uncertainty. By the end of his third journey he has fought battles, faced demons, endured suffering, and found love. He earns his manhood not only through common experience that time confers on all regardless, but through the choices he makes and his uncommon strength of will to complete the missions he starts.
