There were tumbleweeds blowing across the cracked, muddy earth as Eleanor disembarked from the train in the Western Australian backwater of Margaret River. She was glad that she wasn't alone after her peaceful domestic life in the tea plantations of South India was decimated by a hubristic extravaganza of superhuman power. As she breathed in the infernal heat of an unseasonably warm austral spring, she was accompanied into the bush by an entourage of friends, spies, unrequited lovers, and gods - human and non-human alike. More than one of them was doomed, but only one of them knew it at the time. With an unseen evil force causing monstrous mayhem, can Eleanor uncover the truth in time for an epic showdown, while keeping her most guarded secrets from the darkest enemies yet, and, more infuriatingly than ever, from her unsuspecting husband?THE GLORIOUS VICTORIES OF ELEANOR MACLEOD is an art deco fantasy epic that explores feminine strength, the meaning of life and death, and the nature of good and evil. Arranged as five books, each with its own genre, the series follows the life of a vivacious, war-veteran nurse, Eleanor MacLeod, as she crosses paths with a crew of powerful beings and is brought into their fold with divine secrets she cannot reveal, especially to her new half-human husband. Set in the height of the hopeful, scarred, bacchanalian 1920s, Eleanor's story is a poignant yet lighthearted exploration of the ripples of impact created by an exceptionally powerful woman making her imperfect way in the world. EASTWARD BEYOND THE SKY, an art deco western with an epic Hindu twist, is the fourth book of the five book series. As much about the inevitable cycles of change and rebirth as they are about the cozy comfort of a life filled with unconditional love, all five books of the series were published at once in August 2019 for consideration in the KindleStorytellerUK contest. They are intended to be read in order as one continuous saga.
