‘Nemesis:From the Diaries of Captain John Duffy’ is a mystical adventure novel delving into cosmology, archaeology and shamanism.
Elisabetta says “Nemesis began as a journey of love, a gift from me to my partner, created when I was so broke I couldn't afford to buy him a Christmas present, so I wrote one instead. It is the story of how two broken people from different worlds, find each other and make themselves whole. Caught between worlds, my heroes - John and Alcyone - struggle to protect the future of their planets. Threatened by a rogue sun, the lives of billions hang in the balance as John and Alcyone battle to keep themselves and their worlds alive.”
“This book is the fictional representation of the science I share in The Energy Code, and is a synthesis of my life-long study of philosophy, cosmology, historical anomalies and shamanism. Most of all it is my most precious work. I hope you will enjoy it, share it and hold it close to your heart, as I do. It is the perfect gift for someone that you love, because that was what it was created to be.”
Another local writer and artist, Jennifer Boyes (author of the soon to be locally released ‘Uri'madu, Song of the Planet Walkers’), says of Nemesis: "I was taken on a magical journey, sensuous and exciting. The interplay of dream and reality is beautifully rendered and asks the question, how can we tell which is which, where one stops and the other begins? Perhaps all powerful dreams are memories of 'slides' between worlds. Yet for all its mysticism, the adventure is rollicking in the 'boy's own style. A page turner."
Previous titles by Elisabetta are ‘The Energy Code’, ‘The Infidel’ & ‘Veritas’.
