EXCERPT


There is no way to get past my attacker and the two crocodile Creepers. The Creeper birds circling above the platform are an extra layer of security. Iโ€™m trapped. Is death the only way out of this? The only way to save Beth? I donโ€™t want to die. But unlike Beth, an early death was written in my cards long ago. She could live to eighty or even a hundred. Iโ€™ll be lucky to make it to twenty. As much as I want to enjoy every moment of every day until my time naturally runs out, her life is worth more than mine. I swore to protect it. One thing is certain. If I live, she dies.

I take in the birdโ€™s-eye view of the Garden. The view of one world from the sky of another. The Creepers flap their massive wings, circling nearer, my hair whipping across my face from the draft.

โ€œItโ€™s a long way down, Synthia.โ€

โ€œThatโ€™s one thing we agree on.โ€ I shrug into my backpack and face him. โ€œAnother thing we agree on is that some things are worse than death. Like losing a loved one.โ€

โ€œA loved one someone takes from you,โ€ He says, with malice.

โ€œI am sorry about that. But youโ€™re not going to kill Beth for revenge.โ€

โ€œOh? Why is that?โ€

โ€œBecause you canโ€™t make me witness something if Iโ€™m dead.โ€ With that, I whirl around and hop onto the railing, teetering forward, gasping with panicked second thoughts.

โ€œNo!โ€ He screams.

Defiantly, I heave myself off the railing.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

avatar

Michael Seidelman

My name is Michael Seidelman. I was born in Vancouver, BC Canada where I continue to reside. When I was growing up, my passions were reading, watching movies, nature and creative writing. Not much has changed since then. In high school when I had an opportunity to write short stories in class, I relished reading them out loud to my classmates who would gasp at the unexpected twists and applaud when I was done. I took several creative writing classes and have continued writing over the years while working in Interactive Marketing.

About two years ago, I decided to take some time off to focus on my writing and work on a Young Adult trilogy. The first book in The Garden of Syn series โ€“ No One Dies in the Garden of Syn โ€“ will be released on April 26th. Meanwhile, I am working hard on the second and third books in the series.

Getting up every morning and sitting down to create new characters and bring new worlds to life is the most fulfilling job I have ever had. Beyond the trilogy, I have many ideas plotted out and I look forward to sharing them all with the world!
