Greetings, travelers.  Our journeys through the Otherworld will take us to places filled with joy, or places filled with rage, but it’s rare that we get to see them presented as deftly balanced as you’ll see today.  If you’re looking for a world that feels an awful lot like our own until it wildly doesn’t, you’re in for a treat.  Read on to learn more about They Live Among Us.

Author EBatzell invites us to peer behind the thin veil separating ordinary life from extraordinary truth in their book, They Live Among Us.  There’s a richness to the author’s story, where individual pieces of the plot are woven together to help the reader understand what the world is, what people think about each other, and to set everything in motion for what is ultimately to come.  When a single, disastrous Tuesday becomes the moment everything hidden finally breaks loose, this excellent story starts to feel like an interesting blend of elements, like a sci-fi-magic Die Hard.  EBatzell also shows a strong hand for blending relatable modern struggles with sharp speculative twists.  Through interesting character development, the author explores identity, secrecy, and more personal connections, crafting characters whose inner conflict is just as compelling as the external chaos surrounding them.

Rogero’s day started badly enough, with the boss once again giving him hard time in front of the colleagues. Add to the mix terrorists taking him and everyone else in the building as hostages and an alien on a rampage, and you can get why he hates Tuesdays.
But there’s more about Rogero that colleagues and family alike aren’t aware, secrets the world is not supposed to know… Being a Magister is one of them, having special ‘skills’ is another.
Fast-paced and laced with tension, They Live Among Us delivers a clever collision of urban fantasy and sci-fi, grounding its wild turns in character-driven stakes and a world that feels uncomfortably close to our own.  Readers who enjoy stories where hidden powers surface under pressure and ordinary lives crack open to reveal something far stranger beneath will be excited to take this journey.  And if that sounds like something you’d be interested in, don’t wait.  Check out They Live Among Us, by EBatzell, on Amazon today!
