Описание: Welcome to Tell City...
Questioning whether or not he is insane, Charles abandons his life in Houston to chase a dream - a prophetic dream. Hitchhiking to Tell City, Indiana, all he wants is reassurance that he isn't as crazy as his girlfriend says, and that his dream means something.
On the road to Tell City, he hitches a ride with a strange woman who claims she doesn't know him, but knows the person he will become, and that he is on the road to his destiny. But it isn't until reaching the small Midwest town and meeting a psychic named Desiree that he learns what his destiny actually entails...
Tell City has a secret: it hides the only remaining Oracle on Earth. Hidden in a place discoverable only by those who have gone before, the Oracle reveals riddled prophecies through the mouth of its blind priest, and it is the knowing Oracle that has been calling to Charles through his dreams. But the Oracle's knowledge only ever comes at a great sacrifice.
Charles will learn that everyone has a hidden past - even himself - and that the future of humanity is in great peril. A divine storm is coming, and it is causing the bordering Ohio River to rise, threatening the citizens of Tell City. Soon Charles will be swept into a battle between Gods and men for the Oracle and for the very Earth itself.
Engulfed in a world of visions and magic, Charles encounters a chain-smoking Mrs. Claus, a protective Valkyrie, and trickster shapeshifters, all of whom are eager to see the invading Gods sent back to the other world.
With the clock ticking and the flood waters rising, Charles and his new friends must find clues in the Oracle's prophecies and in their own lives to save the very Earth from its Gods.
Embedded with dark fantasy, and featuring folklore and myth masterfully woven throughout, Tell City is a raw coming-of-age tale in the classic sense, but with modern twists that will keep you guessing. This wonderfully eerie story will make you look twice at small-town America... and even your own dreams.
