ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I
n addition to being a talented Science Fiction Writer, Nathan Walsh specializes in Fashion Design, Music Production and Studio Engineering out of Boston Massachusetts. When he’s not producing music, recording local artists, working on new designs for his clothing line or writing, he takes time out to travel, listen to music, read and indulge in Science Fiction films.

Family is everything to him, which is the reason for his company slogan: “Blood is Everything.” In addition, Nathan thrives on learning new things every day. Thus, he lives by another one of his many slogans, “Money has no influence in the grave. But the knowledge you’ve gained before your transition into death is eternal.”

Nathan Walsh believes in fully taking advantage of a strong imagination and never being afraid of putting it to use, at whatever cost. “Don’t be afraid if they label you crazy, different or weird. Rather, embrace it.” He incorporates his cherished eccentricities into everything he does.

Of course, not everything was fashioned in the Sun. He admits that he’s had more downs than ups, but always embraces them as challenges to be overcome. He’s trekked through rough terrain and encountered his own fair share of Demons.

Living in a hostile urban neighborhood, he’d suffered the loss of many friends and family to drugs and violence. Nathan feared that each funeral dimmed the light on his own future; and that, soon, he too would become a statistic of the ongoing battles that plague his city. After surviving a life threatening gunshot wound to his
neck and losing his Father to Prostate Cancer, he continues to persevere, striving and pursuing his praiseworthy goals with more vigor each day.

His writing, music and fashion are his “escape,” as he calls it. Nathan encourages everyone to pursue their goals whatever the circumstances. You do not learn from success. You learn from your failures. The Key to Life … The Good Life … is learning and growing every day, and Nathan Walsh understands that. He has discovered the Key to the Good Life. And through his latest creation,
Pursuit of the Zodiacs
, Nathan Walsh is tendering that Key unto you, and welcomes you into his mysterious world … a new Dimension wherein the eternal Battle of Good & Evil rages on like never before.

WHAT IS PURSUIT OF THE ZODIACS?

P
ursuit of the Zodiacs
is a dark science fiction novel based on a select group of Archangels called Mosqidou, meaning the “Pursuers” in the Immortal tongue.

They have been sent down from Heaven to the Mortal Realms of the Universe to intercept a Scroll created by members of a Dark Society. Their objective is to use the knowledge in the Scroll to unite the descendants of their fellow Fallen Angels … the Zodiacs … for the final Battle between Good and Evil.

Most of the original Zodiacs have migrated to unknown Worlds and Galaxies, vanishing without a trace. Some say they were killed and disregarded due to the trials of the Universe. Producing heirs was a necessity for the survival of their kind. Therefore, they multiplied by forcing themselves upon the women of Earth and Mortals from other Worlds. As a result, for generations, their Power have been handed down through their bloodline. But the history and reason for their existence waned with each passing generation, saddling them with an enormous disadvantage for the coming final war.

The new generation of Zodiacs has inherited great gifts, but without knowledge about how or why they possess them. After many centuries, following the expulsion of Lucifer, his disciples and other forces who shared differences with God, some of the Zodiacs have chosen a virtuous path and were thence forced into exile.

Others chose to live up to their ancestors’ dark reputation. With the aid of their carrier and a mysterious Scroll written in blood, this Dark Society seeks to inform
all those with an unidentified background about their true origin. After the truth is revealed, they hope to instill vengeance by finally reuniting this lost alliance.

Mosqidou, blessed with certain gifts of their own, must warn the Zodiacs of this encroaching threat, and halt this sinister mission by destroying its masters, soldiers and anyone in association with these Dark Societies before it is too late.
