    About this ebook

    Vistaria(A creature conceived in the book of Hadagery) Zayne is accidentally propelled into a world he can't understand, and since that fateful moment he has been seeing things that can't be possible. Things that bring him closer to death, unless he can discover the secrets of the beast.
    It began with an accident, as he witnessed a man die right before his eyes, but there was much more to his death than the accident. The dead man's words still resounding fresh in the mind, "It's waiting." Zayne wanted to know, "Whats waiting?" Will he find out in time?

      In those infinitesimal moments of time he held his breath for the impending impact, as his heartbeat had quickened every nerve and cell in his body, and he prayed that he could stop in time. The deafening sound of tires squealed athwart the pavement, as the frantic man molded to the front of Zayne’s vehicle, and left a bloody streak up and over the hood. The man came to rest
