CSFF Blog Tour Kickoff – The Shadow and Night
This month’s Christian Science Fiction & Fantasy Blog Tour is about author Chris Walley’s book, The Shadow and Night.
The cover art on this book is so cool, I just had to include a large version so you can see some of the detail:
I will be posting more information shortly, but here is the basic information from Amazon.
Book Description
In the spirit of C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lamb among the Stars series weaves the worlds of science and the spirit, technology and supernatural into something unique and haunting. On the faraway planet of Farholme, humans live in peace under the gentle rule of the Assembly. War and evil are ancient history. But suddenly, almost imperceptibly, things begin to change. Slowly a handful of men and women begin to realize that evil has returned and it must be fought.
From the Inside Flap
Imagine a future that todays generation can only dream of. A trillion people live under the gentle rule of the Assembly on over a thousand Made Worlds. Peace and stability have reigned for nearly twelve thousand years, and war and evil are merely ancient history. But all that is about to change.
On Farholme, a Made World at the edge of the Assembly, strange and troubling things are happening. Slowly, incredulously, a handful of men and women come to recognize the unthinkable: Evil has returned once more, and it must be fought. Forester Merral D’Avanos and his friends are entrusted with the daunting task of confronting their worlds elusive enemy.
Now isolated from the rest of the Assembly, Farholme must fight its battles alone. It falls to Merral to lead the untried forces of Farholme into war against opponents well-hidden and armed with strange powers. Yet even as he faces extraordinary and terrifying foes, Merral finds he has an unexpected enemy—himself.

I thought the cover (once I was into the book a bit) was such a spoiler! But I probably shouldn’t say that…
Great intro!
I really enjoyed the book. There are four books in the series. Now to read the last two! Best regards.

Rebecca and Michael, thanks for visiting!
I haven’t read the books, but I am definitely intrigued!
Does anyone else see the explosion on the cover as looking like a giant cat face? Might just be me…
Robert, I’m glad you posted the large version. The smaller one just doesn’t do the picture justice at all.
