“It’s like the blind leading the blind through a landscape of fear.” Bizarre and macabre, The Aurora Revelations by Michael F. Walker chronicles the nightmarish adventures of the Nerd Legion, a group of friends fascinated by the paranormal. The story begins in 2015 as Katy Olmos, a tour guide in Chaco Canyon National Park, stumbles into a man who should not be there. Apart from the fact that the man is drenched in blood that is not his own, he also possesses a strange journal describing very detailed events that seem to have never occurred. However, as Katy discovers, just because the events in the journal never happened does not mean that they are not frighteningly real.

Ghosts, extraterrestrials, dreams, and suicide cults are just a few topics in The Aurora Revelations by Michael F. Walker. The main plot revolves around the mystery of a possible alien craft crash in Aurora, Texas in 1897 and the belief that the pilot is still buried there. However, nothing about this novel is as it seems, and I mean that as a compliment. Multiple themes are explored through the mad-cap adventures of the protagonists, with fresh interpretations of paranormal phenomena provided. Strong, screwy, and intriguing characters add another layer of fascination to the story and dispel the notion that being a nerd automatically equates to being weak. The pace is unique and unorthodox; if the novel were a film, it would resemble a documentary. A satisfying tale akin to setting in place the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle, fans of bizarre and original stories, your dreams have come true.
