Glitching between dimensions wasn't supposed to be my life, but sometimes you have to dance with the darkness.
I should be dead. Shot twice through the chest. But the Embassy saved me because I’m a one-of-a-kind freak who blips to worlds they can’t reach. Now I’m their personal mule, raiding collapsing planets to fatten their coffers. Lucky me.
And things have gone from bad to worse. My old team is being held hostage, my family’s in danger, and the darkness hunts me across realities. My one shot to end this living hell? Take down the Embassy, save Charlie, and torch the whole rotten system. Simple, right? One misstep though, and we’re toast. Alien breach. Apocalypse. End scene.
If I fail, the darkness won’t stop until it swallows us whole.
Excerpt from the Book
Heaviness blankets me. A childish part of me wanted to hang onto the idea that I was an instrumental part of saving the universe. More than that though, I’d hoped that Cory slipped me his wedding ring so he could save me. For a single stupid moment, I thought this was about me. Why do I keep doing this? Falling for the idea that people care about me for who I am and not what I can do for them? The only people who loved me like that are my family, and I can’t ever reach them again without inadvertently siccing the darkness on them. I take a deep, hollow breath before asking, “What do you want, Cory?”

Music Playlist for the Dark Walker Series
Thanks so much for having me on the blog! I really appreciate the chance to reach new readers. When I saw that one of your post subject ideas was a playlist for the books, I latched right on. I live in a noisy household full of boys who like to listen to sports at full volume and birds who sing at the top of their lungs so I spend most of my writing time with a set of headphones on bobbing my head as I write. My generic playlist mostly consists of instrumental music that sounds like the epic soundtrack for some movie trailer. There’s some though, that really resonated for me while I was writing Seed, book 3 in the Dark Walker series. So I’ve plunked them into a Dark Walker Series Playlist. Feel free to click and listen away. What are your go-to songs or playlists, people? I’d love to hear all about them. Thanks for letting me share a bit about the soundtrack that’s playing in my head while I write! Really appreciate the support. Keep feeding your imagination!
Cheers,
Shelly
About the Author
At a young age, Shelly Campbell wanted to be an air show pilot or a pirate, possibly a dragon and definitely a writer and artist. She’s piloted a Cessna 172 through spins and stalls, and sailed up the east coast on a tall ship barque—mostly without projectile vomiting. In the end, Shelly found writing and drawing dragons to be so much easier on the stomach. Shelly writes speculative fiction ranging from grimdark fantasy, to sci-fi and horror. She’d love to hear from you.
