Shepherd of the Kingdom Shepherd Kingston wanted fame and fortune and when the young photographer found the opportunity to photograph the beautiful and elusive Wall Street wizard, Ericka Elvina, he thought he had discovered his chance. Warned by his friend and mentor, Abraham Trent, a professor of mysticism and the ancient black arts, that Ms. Elvina was not who she seemed to be, Shepherd ignores his superstitious nonsense and agrees to accompany her back to the mysterious kingdom apparently unknown to the civilized world. Realizing, to his horror, the kingdom has not progressed in thousands of years, Shepherd finds himself placed in a precarious position of defending good against evil in the realm Satan rules. With only Ericka and a lone human servant for comfort, the Otherworlder must ultimately decide how - or if - he can use his powers to fulfil a prophesy decreed in the time before time.
