Benediction Denied
A Labyrinth of Souls Novel
by Elizabeth Engstrom
Genre: Epic Fantasy

Picture
While hydrologist Adam Swan is engaged in humanitarian efforts to bring water to a small, isolated village in the Congo, he is kidnapped by rebel thugs and thrown into a makeshift prison. He is left to die—or worse—if his ransom is not paid. In a surprising series of events, Adam escapes his brutal captors into an underground labyrinth where reality and sanity no longer rule.
Armed with a limited amount of magic which he does not understand, he survives by employing it boldly, recklessly, desperate to return to the village above, homesick for Minnesota and normal life with his wife and daughters.
Tested to the extreme limits of his endurance, Adam navigates the labyrinth with only the company of his past behavior, the baffling magic, and the seductive temptation to succumb to the mysterious and merciless gods of the underworld. The consequences of his actions, past present, and future, take him to the brink of death—and beyond.
A fun, fast, thrilling ride by veteran author Elizabeth Engstrom, inspired by Matthew Lowes’ Dungeon Solitaire: Labyrinth of Souls card game.

Does a big ego help or hurt writers?

It takes a bit of an ego to think that people would stand in line and pay money to read what a writer has to say. But reviews and critics and friends and family have a tendency to tamper down that ego, and that helps keep it in balance. Thanks for the question. Good luck on the drawing!

Thanks! Josephe Vandel did the artwork for all the covers in the Labyrinth of Souls fiction series. They are all Tarot cards from the Labyrinth of Souls solitaire game. I hope you enjoy the book.
