The Spirit Well

A BRIGHT EMPIRES NOVEL

Lawhead has embarked on his most ambitious writing project to date: the five-book BRIGHT EMPIRES series. The third volume, The Spirit Well, will be published in the USA on 1 September 2012.

The series is underpinned by the cutting-edge work of quantum physicists, natural philosophers, and cosmologists who describe a universe not only much greater, but also far stranger than we imagine.

Is this the future of science fiction and fantasy?

‘I have not read or written anything quite like it,’ says Lawhead. ‘It’s been forming in my mind for at least fifteen years. Now I am finally writing it, because I think I can finally do justice to such an intricately woven storyline.’

"Once again, Lawhead has penned an epic tale, putting a new spin on an old legend. Full of rich imagery, this page-turner will appeal to fans of suspense and fantasy." – Library Journal
