In the savage frontier of 1810 New South Wales, ancient horrors stir beneath the dreamtime veil.

When ritualistic deaths plague the colonies during Tedbury's War, three soldiers face a darkness older than the land itself. Thomas "Saint" McCullough, an Irish tracker with unshakeable faith. Sean O'Brien, a veteran whose Celtic prayers hide deeper power. And Lieutenant Catherine "Wolf" Blackwood - a half-Mohawk officer bearing blessed weapons and secret knowledge of an organization that fights supernatural evil.

As Aboriginal warriors fall to an ancient corruption and settlers vanish in the night, our heroes discover that Tedbury's rebellion masks a far darker purpose. Something has awakened in the dreamtime - a horror that existed before the Rainbow Serpent, before the first dreams of mankind. Now it hungers to turn all dreams to nightmare.

Blending historical drama with cosmic horror, "Shadow Dreaming" continues the acclaimed Bright series, pitting humanity's champions against terrors that lurk in reality's shadows. Through billabongs that reflect impossible stars and bush haunted by darker things than snakes, three warriors must find a way to unite ancient faiths against an evil that threatens to devour all light.

When Celtic prayer meets Aboriginal songline and blessed silver faces cosmic horror, who will survive the night where nightmares walk? And what price must be paid to keep the light burning in darkness?

Experience the latest chapter in the supernatural military horror series that readers call "a masterful blend of historical action and cosmic terror." Perfect for fans of cosmic horror, military fiction, and dark historical fantasy.

The war for humanity's soul enters dangerous new territory. And in the darkness between dreams, ancient powers hunger.
