"Sefira’s Gloom by author Alex Tilley shows the authors style can carry into the realm of Fantasy. Unlike his previous works this story is far darker and will pull your emotions in a variety of directions. " - Christopher Steele, Goodreads
"The atmosphere is richly drawn, and there’s a lot of dark, disturbing imagery in this story that I really enjoyed. I’d definitely call this a slow burn, but it held my interest with the eerie tone and thoughtful pacing." - E.J., Goodreads
"This is a wonderfully written fantasy novel that I will be happily adding to my collection when it comes out. I have yet to read anything by this author that I didn't like." - Shawn Heath, Goodreads
"Holy shit, Alex, you wrote this?" - Chantal Mico, Wife
This isn't a fairytale. It's fire and blood. Ruin. Survival.
When the mountain burned it did not simply devour a forest: it scorched the only sanctuaries of the now orphaned children Finn and Serah.
Sefira's Gloom is a dark fantasy novel that delves into the horrifying experiences and sufferings of Finn and Serah as their divergent paths through enslavement, corruption, addiction, and avarice, force them to see a world they never imagined in their worst nightmares actually existed, and discover a truth to what lies beneath the mountain that was once their home.
No soft magic. No chosen ones without scars. No political muddling. Just a brutal and gritty world where survival is contingent on unbreakable resilience.
