    About this ebook

    and she couldn't see a thing.

    Dream, nightmare, it has hard to tell the difference between that and reality. Until she spoke, light bloomed, and Madeline realized that she was in more trouble than expected.

    She was covered with blood. Cuts, bruises, swelling and broken bones. Madeline stared, heart beating faster until she broke free.

    And realized that the dream might be realer than reality.

    Streams of the Final Shores takes you to a magic realm and grants you knowledge of power, truth and freedom that queer readers are sure to love.

      Streams of the Final Shores

      Madeline bent and braced her hands against her thighs. So much pain. Her back, thighs, calves. God, her calves felt like they were a half second away from cramping for eternity. Even the soles of her feet ached from the hike. Arms. Shoulders. Neck. That felt like she was getting stabbed.

      It was so dark, too. She couldn't see her feet, not clearly at any rate. The darkness enveloped her, obscured everything around her. It felt alive. Velvet and big cats breathing just behind you as they waited for you to fall.

      Not that she heard anything at all. Even her panting was quiet. Silent really. No noise, no smells, just the pain and the darkness that kept her from telling where she was going, where she'd been. Madeline straightened up and sighed.

      I hurt, Madeline said except her voice was silent as the darkness. She kept talking anyway because it was true and it didn't matter if she wouldn't be heard. Just saying the words mattered. I hurt. I'm tired. I want to get there. Wherever there is. This better not be pointless. I won't accept it if it is. I matter. I do!

      The more she said, the brighter things got. The taller she stood, the better she could see.

The last bit got Madeline a burst of light that showed her a green, growing, beautiful world. Plants, flowers and grass and shrubs and lovely little
