Naomi

From Bram Stoker Award-winning author Douglas Clegg, comes a spellbinding, gothic dark fantasy of lost love in Manhattan, witches, subway depths -- and a dark creature known only as the Serpent. "Clegg's spectacular depiction of New York as a vast Gothic mansion filled with haunted souls gives [Naomi] its formidable power." -- Publishers Weekly

The subways of Manhattan are only the first stage of Jake Richmond's descent into the vast subterranean passageways beneath the city -- and the discovery of a mystery and a terror greater than any human being could imagine.Naomi went into the tunnels to destroy herself...but found an even more terrible fate awaiting her in the twisting corridors.

Now, the man who loves Naomi must find her...and bring her back to the world of the living, a world where a New York brownstone holds a burial ground of those accused of witchcraft, where the secrets of the living may be found within the ancient diary of a witch, and where a creature known only as the Serpent has escaped its bounds at last.

About the Author

Douglas Clegg wrote Naomi as the world's first e-serial novel in 1999. It was then published in hardcover and paperback. Now in a new, revised digital edition from Alkemara Press. Inspired by Manhattan itself, a private loss and a love for the history and legend of the subways themselves, Naomi was originally written week-by-week and episodes were emailed to readers via the newsletter at Clegg's website.
