The Phantom Maverick

In this first installment of THE PARANORMAL PARABLES, author Charlie Gray introduces the reader to Maverick, a six-hundred-year-old phantom, one of the immortal branches together with vampires, sprites, and werewolves. Desperate to avoid the imminent “War of the Branches” that threatens humankind and immortals, Maverick enlists young writer, Darcy Tuffin, to record his fantastical journey through the centuries, hoping the remarkable story will act as a cautionary tale to inspire peace. Boasting a darkly delightful titular character, THE PHANTOM MAVERICK is a sprawling, complex, and wonderfully inventive novel that has several beautifully profound love stories at its supernatural heart. Gray capably demonstrates his skill as a storyteller as he re-imagines the tropes and traditions of the genre with rich creativity and fresh vibrancy.
