Teendyth

David Absolom Teendyth IV wanted nothing more than to follow in his father's footsteps, and he would have done so easily had the deacons minded their own business.

But Absolom really should thank them. If they hadn't forced him to go to Seminary, he would have never been forced to come to terms with how shallow his beliefs were. He never would have met his James, and he would have never known his father and uncle as deeply as he had come to know them.

He would have never met God.

No, not that one.

The other one.

Praise be the Putrid Cloud

Disturbing. Heartbreaking. Cathartic for some, downright terrifying for others. All these are words that could describe "Teendyth", Steven-Mark A. Maine's debut novel. After losing a close friend due to the heinous actions of another, William "Absolom" Teendyth IV is forced to come to terms with the fact that he has never spoken to the God he was raised to believe in. A truly terrifying realization to come upon when some other forgotten God has begun to speak to you.

"Extremely well written, but incredibly disturbing." -My sister who very much would have told me if she didn't like it.

"One of the best things I've read." -My editor who is definitely not also my wife.

"Three Stars" -The one person on goodreads who didn't elaborate further.

"I don't know, I think it's pretty good." -Steven-Mark A. Maine.
