About this listen
No human can stop the Toxic Whisperers from plunging Earth into soulless darkness, but Reuben is far from human. Praised by Kirkus Reviews for its “unrelenting action” and “breakneck pace,” Narican: The Cloaked Deception blends science-fiction and metaphysical themes to create an alternate reality full of both emotional depth and twisting adventure.
Reuben Mitchell’s 18 years on Earth have taught him what it means to suffer. Despite being consumed by cursed luck, traumatic loss, and recurring nightmares, he refuses to let his demons take hold of his soul. As his inner-world seems to tear in two, the world around him does the same. But where there is darkness, he quickly finds there is light.
When Reuben learns that he is one of the last descendants from the planet Narican’s Sun Clan, great supernatural defenders of the soul’s highest order, all of his life’s misfortunes come into perspective. With the aid of a fellow Light Being named Tanz, Reuben decides he must learn to use his inherited powers to help lead the charge against the Toxic Whispers who threaten to destroy his second home, Earth. His godlike alien powers allow him to stand his ground in the face of grave danger. He will fight to protect Earth. He will fight to protect the souls of the innocent. And he will fight to protect the new, makeshift family that brightens his world.

He is lost, a fish out of water. Where is the magic? He’s got a lot of catching up to do if he’s going to find his missing sister and stop an incursion of daemons from beyond the Veil.

Hi, I’m Lyric. And I’m kind of a mess. ADHD, that’s me. I’m a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I’m a loner, and I like it that way. After my mom died, I figured life couldn’t get much worse. I thought it might even get better. I should’ve listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. ‘Cause now, I’m in a battle for my life.

All of a sudden, the most ordinary things have taken on a sinister edge: a penny on a doormat. An odd man in a brown suit under a streetlamp. The persistent sound of an ax chopping in the middle of the night. He keeps telling himself that this is Seaham, a sleepy seaside town where nothing ever happens. Or at least nothing did, until his dad’s construction company opened up the cliff beneath the old—some say cursed—Langdon place.
