Blood Omen
About this ebook
For thirty years, Father Richard Blood has been haunted by voices from the dark—cold, dissonant whispers that doctors called schizophrenia and the Church called a curse. Richard knows the truth: they are the voices of the damned, and they are trying to warn him.
When an impossibly deep Soviet-era borehole in the Syrian desert breaches a subterranean void, the silence of the ancient world is shattered. Deep beneath the bedrock, something ancient, hungry, and impossibly powerful has been waiting.
Enter Elijah Abadi, a billionaire philanthropist with the power to shape the modern world. But Elijah is no longer the man he once was. Possessed by a primordial entity that predates humanity, he is orchestrating a ritual to fulfill a Canaanite prophecy—the unmaking of creation.
From the secret archives of the Vatican to the ruins of ancient Ugarit, Father Richard Blood must race to break the circle before the ritual is completed. He is a man of faith armed with little more than academic knowledge and a terrifying, psychic connection to the enemy.
In a world where the line between history and horror has vanished, a broken priest may be the only thing standing between humanity and the rising tide of an ancient evil.
The war for the human soul has begun. Will you listen to the voices, or will you succumb to the silence?

Bruce Savage was born in Lewiston, Maine in 1967, the youngest son of 16 brothers and sisters to Winfield Strout and Blanche Strout. He published his first successful work when he was 10 years old in Boy’s Life magazine. The publication paid him $1 for a joke he wrote.

In 1999 he graduated from Columbia Southern University with a bachelor’s degree in computer science and information systems. He held several positions with several fortune 500 companies until 2002 when he dove headfirst and full time into the world of writing and publishing. Since then, he has produced 25 novels and counting. Casualties of War was his first novel followed by Psycho.
He is currently working on many other novels that will be available soon as well as the screenplay for Russian Games.
