There are many truths seeking to reveal the ‘meaning of life’ which, when examined in the cold light of day, lose their essential essence because of the inevitable decay brought about by an insatiable need to rationalise them. The Insidious Sign is the embodiment of one such truth - a symbol of sentient design created to guide the life of others through the representation of divine purpose. - The Archetypes.

The anticipated sequel to ‘The Insidious Vine’ explores how meaning is distorted and truth stagnates with rigidity - The Trilogy continues in its dystopian wyrdness.

In his new novel Paul Ogden manages to make the mundane aspects of life interesting in a very peculiar and almost sinister fashion - a fascinating well written piece of literature which will leave you asking questions.

Paul’s ability to draw the reader into the world of that peculiar species known as the human, together with all its intricate psychological characteristics, in such a creative, disturbing and humorous way, is an absolute delight!
