Essence of Chaos is the first book in the Books of the Curari series. This book is completed and is currently in edits. Pilar Reilly found herself in a pit, on a planet that wasn’t Earth, and in a body she’d didn’t recognize…unfortunately things got worse from there.A 27-year old cultural anthropologist from that great cultural Mecca Los Angeles, Pilar was confident that she had seen it all.
Nothing could surprise her.
Until a very good looking, and equally non-human, man came and saved her from the pit she had no memory of falling into. 21st century Angelinos weren’t supposed to hop planets nor bodies, and they certainly weren’t supposed to fall for the first tall, dark, and point eared man who came their way.However, she was going to need his help if she were to survive on this rustic world.
Swords, sorcery, and magic were some of the few things she had never studied during her extended education, but they ruled this world. Her new companion, Storm- a simple woodsman according to him- had no magic, but he knew people who did.Luckily, one of them, a 3,000-year-old mage named Ghortin found that Pilar carried a wealth of untapped magic.
Unfortunately Ghortin also realized that the body she had somehow been forced into previously belonged to a woman who had been brutally mindsacrficed by a long lost cult. A woman who had the knowledge and skills to fend off the coming apocooylpse.
However, while this world didn’t need a cultural anthropologist, it did need the woman whose body Pilar had been violently thrust into. The woman whose mind is lost forever.
