ARMY of SOULS
Book Two in the Scat's Universe saga
“If flesh came into being because of the spirit, it is a wonder. But if spirit came into being because of the body, it is a wonder of wonders.”
Ancient text discovered near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, December 1945. Believed to be the Gospel According to Thomas 24:1
Man’s soul is little more than collateral damage in a struggle between our daemons and demons. As Man succumbs to the soul-harvesting Haraan and the seven Vices pursue the four Virtues in a brutal and one-sided conflict, Scat must travel the Other-Worlds to free our souls from Purgatory.
But Man is allied against him. An army of souls is on the rampage. And the Demon Master is a single victory from reigning supreme.

What do readers say about Scat?
"Great stuff. Loved the concepts going on here, I like when someone creates a new and believable universe. There's a whole lotta book going on here, so strap yourself in for the ride! 10 out of 10!"
"The plot twists are exciting and catch you off guard. They make it impossible to stop reading once started. Be warned, you will NOT be able to put it down until the mind blowing conclusion!"
"Scat is a big, intelligent, interesting novel. If you enjoy hard gritty sf with plenty of well-handled dialogue, you will not go far wrong with this one."
"My only surprise is that this book is free! I would have gladly paid for it, give the quality of the plot and characters. I look forward to 'Army of Souls' when it comes out."
"This book is compelling read with a skilfully crafted narrative that makes it hard to put down. The story itself is clever, topical and thought provoking and the characters, especially the lead character, Scat, are skilfully drawn. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone, not just fans of the SciFi genre, as the author, Jim Graham, has crafted a very enjoyable, intelligently written novel that keeps you wanting more. "
"Scat is a sprawling novel, spanning years, full of ideas and conflicts that resonate in today's world, as good sci-fi is supposed to ... Graham bombards the reader with ideas and the Scat’s ambition and scope are a marvel."
"There’s a ton of world-building here, a lot of characters working at crossed purposes, several major plot twists. ... and the coda is...well I was drop jawed ... I recommend the book, and eagerly look forward to seeing what Mr. Graham will do next."
"Go Down City feels completely developed and thought out, and feels lived in, like a real place. As a guy who’s written a few books myself, I’m here to tell you that coming up with a location that actually ‘feels’ like a location is no mean feat, but we get such a sense of Go Down that you can almost map some of it in your heard. I actually feel like I learned a few literary tricks from that, which I hope to steal in the future”
"This is a very complex, well written SciFi tale at it's traditional best. There is quite a few very good new science fiction out, but not a lot as robust or on as grand a scale as this. It is an enjoyable read and has a little something for everyone."
