IMMORTAL by Val Jeanne Jeffers starts in the year 3075 and Tundra has been at peace for 400 years. Gone is the racism, poverty and war. Where if any weapons are brought into Tundra it is the one thing punishable by death. Tundra, a place where you are only known by your first name and number.
A young Indigo woman, named Karla, works as a healer, at a place called CLEAN. Where people go to get “clean” from being addicted to the drugs Rush and Placid (the only drugs that are legal.) Karla is tormented with erotic, yet terrifying dreams that she is immortal. The dreams are so real, that she is sure she sees a creature in her bedroom. When she recognizes him from her dreams…he disappears. Unfortunately, she knows without a shadow of doubt that this creature means her no good.
Later she meets an aspiring artist, Karla knows it is destiny that their paths have crossed because this is the man she has been dreaming about, for as long as she can remember. He is her warrior and protector from her dreams.
Joseph, a young farmer from Sorres, is haunted by dreams of a sorceress. These dreams embark him on a journey to find her and his destiny. Where together they will journey to the edge of time, to try and save Tundra from the evil that seeks to destroy it.
IMMORTAL by Val Jeanne Jeffers is an enchanting tale of magic, werewolves and humans that turn into creatures of the night. The story was mesmerizing to say the least. I look forward to reading the next installment in this series. Although a quick read, the story moves fast and leaves you wanting more. The writings of Mr. Jeffers remind me a lot of the writer Clive Barker. So if you are into stories that are magical that tell tales of the mythical, then this is your book.
