OverviewSuppose you possessed the power to transform the world, and exploring parallel universes was the secret to redefining reality. Meet Nate Kinslow, the protagonist of a portal fantasy adventure with a strong spiritual and philosophical undercurrent. He is a teenager who ""has everything"" in our world but suddenly loses it all when he accidentally falls into a hellish parallel timeline called the Makia Veil. There, Makia's lethal elite, the Archaemenes, relentlessly hunt Nate, because the truth of his arrival is a truth they'll stop at nothing to conceal. Along this metaphysical quest, Kenya, a flamenco dancer with big dreams of fame joins Nate. Her humble Makian background and aspirations are a sharp contrast with Nate's former celebrity life. The novel draws on the epic spirit of His Dark Materials, The Neverending Story and the spiritual journey of Raya and the Last Dragon. The narrative explores facing one's fears and healing from past wounds on the path to personal liberation, using dramatic opposites like ""wealth vs. homelessness"", ""fame vs. obscurity"", ""heaven vs. hell"", to highlight the character's growth and the story's messages about humility, courage, and self-discovery.

Table of ContentsReviews5-Star Reviews ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ""I couldn't stop reading it, I held onto it on the train, bus, waking up and falling asleep."" Raven's book has been utterly fascinating and captivating. I couldn't stop reading it - I would hold on to it on a train, bus, upon waking and falling asleep. I have been always fascinated by an idea of multiple universes and realities that play out at the same time. This book gives a taste how it is like to 'travel' in time through various planes of consciousness and what our mind is capable of. Raven's writing ability is very impressive especially while creating complex yet easily relatable characters, who carry one's attention in multitude of paths and adventures. I would highly recommend this book and can't wait for hopefully next one to come out soon! Miss E Kazmierczak ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ""I absolutely loved this book."" I absolutely loved this book, it progresses at a really comfortable pace and I very much enjoyed Raven Fenix-Porter's writing style. I think her characters are great, and I really loved the way she represented Nate's trauma and I found myself relating to it quite heavily as someone who does suffer from PTSD. My only comment is that it was a little bit hard to keep track of characters and the storyline at first, but that got a lot easier after the first few chapters once I got into the style. It definitely passed my first-page test, and I did end up re-reading it a second time already. I will likely end up buying a physical copy as well to add to my ever-growing collection! Aj ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ""A young adult novel for all ages. Easy to read and utterly enthralling. Highly recommended!"" Raquel ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ""I couldn't put it down!"" A quarter of the way through, and I couldn't put it down! Unlike most books Raven Fenix-Porter's Quest of Despair gets better as you read along!
