Young Madeline and Roark are desperately running from the shadow that destroyed their home and is threatening their lives. One day they encounter Tatus, an older man who has sworn to avenge the death of his family at the hands of the shadow, and they form an alliance with him. Tatus promises that he can keep them safe from the shadow if they will help him build a fortress. So they build.
But as fortress-building consumes their lives, Madeline and Roark are increasingly filled with anger and fear, and an unseen evil threatens to ultimately destroy them. When they finally face the shadow, he presents them with an unthinkable offer that will reveal shocking secrets of the forgotten past, the unseen present, and the unimaginable future.
The Seed: A True Myth is a journey into the personal labyrinths we create to protect ourselves and those we love from the pain of living in a broken world. Erik Guzman's "true myth" uses Christian fantasy and allegory to portray God's redemptive work without relying on technical theological language. The novel explores themes of redemption, identity, calling, fear, and the cost of living defensively, and it blends mystery and drama into a page-turning spiritual story.
