Author: E.M. McDowell
Publisher: GMTA Publishing
Release Date: 16th July 2013
BLURB supplied by GMTA Publishing
Quantum energy. Unlimited power. Humanity’s
salvation.
The Frameway Project promises all of this and more, and Mackland Luther is guiding the project to its final culmination. On the eve of what promises to be their biggest breakthrough, Mackland and his friends, Billy and Sean, prepare the test that will provide the almost limitless power needed to take the human race into the future.
Initial success and excitement quickly turn to horror as the Frame goes out of control, ripping Mackland and his friends from their world and depositing them in a world that is completely different yet strangely familiar. Along with Lily, a hard-charging security guard that was caught by the Frame along with them; and Grizzly, a rough yet gentle survivalist they meet in this new world, Mack and his friends must figure out some way to understand and undo whatever brought them here if they ever want to return to their own world.
But first they must survive an increasingly dangerous world full of undead drug addicts, giant mutants, and a relentless telepathic madman who will do anything to get his hands on the Frame for his own purposes.

Dark
Luminance is the story of Dr. Mackland Luther and his companions battling
undead mutants and a telepathic madman in an attempt to get back to their own
universe after an experiment gone horribly wrong.
We
couldn't get a hold of author E.M. McDowell for a one on one interview, (word
is that his publisher has him chained in a dark room with nothing but a laptop
and a bowl of pretzels) but we did get a few pages from the journal of Mackland
Luther, found at the site of his latest experiment.
Read
on for an excerpt from
'Dark Luminance'.
Post-Experiment- Day 3 – Lunchtime
Quick update: Billy is working in the tech
tent, hopefully getting the Collector fixed, Sean is awake, although still in
pain, and Lily and I are supposed to head over for some weapons and guard duty
this afternoon.
Also, Jerrington might be insane.
Post-Experiment- Day 4 –
Not much doubt now that Jerrington is both
bat-shit crazy and somehow controlling the Psidead. I suspect he is also able
to read our thoughts, at least to some extent, whenever that crawling sensation
hits. I’m guessing his mental abilities come from the same drug that created
the zombies, but I don’t have any proof. I don’t think it really matters, but
I’d like to know for sure.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Born and raised in Northwest Indiana, E.M. McDowell first started
writing in high school, consisting primarily of sappy poems aimed at impressing
girls. A four year stint in the Marine Corps pushed literary endeavors to the
background, where they remained for the next twenty-odd years, until they were
uncovered by a mild mid-life crisis.
In the intervening years, he has worked in
various technology jobs, and is currently the technology manager for a small
county government.
Married for twenty-two years to his best
friend, and blessed with two wonderful daughters, he works to balance his
writing while living in a house full of women.
