Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Sebastian Whitlock has spent what feels like a lifetime walking the roads between the living and the dead. Whenever someone dies, Sebastian performs the ancient Rites of the Forgotten. And after every death, something impossible appears: a mysterious Temple visible only to those who possess the Sight.To Sebastian, the Temple is sacred. He believes it is a divine sanctuary where lost souls pass beyond the world of the living. For years, he has served as its silent guardian, comforting the dead and guiding them toward release.But when Sebastian finally enters the Temple himself, the certainty he has built his entire existence upon begins to collapse.Inside are endless corridors, impossible architecture, wandering souls, and doors that seem to lead deeper into a reality beyond death. The Temple does not behave like a place of salvation. It behaves like a machine-or perhaps a prison.Then Sebastian encounters those who know more about the Temple than he does.They force him to question the "Unconditional Vow" that has governed his life and the strange homesickness that has followed him across centuries. He begins to realize that the Temple may not appear because of the dead at all.It may be appearing because of him.The deeper Sebastian travels, the more disturbing the truth becomes. His centuries of service may have been less an act of holiness than an elaborate escape from the man he once was. The Temple has been waiting for him, and the door he has spent countless lives searching for will not open for the monk.It will open only for the man hiding behind the vow.The Temple That Appeared After Every Death is a dark metaphysical fantasy about death, memory, identity, attachment, and spiritual awakening-a haunting journey into a place where the dead are not necessarily the ones who need to be saved.
