A powerful narrative of personal transformation emerges with W.W. Mitchell's debut novel 'Cataclysm Kin', a dark fantasy epic that intertwines the author's life journey with a complex mythological tale of celestial conflict. Mitchell, a United States Marine Corps veteran, has crafted a story that transcends traditional genre boundaries, drawing from his experiences of overcoming profound personal challenges.
The novel introduces readers to Edith and Bethany, celestial sisters with a fractured relationship, whose ancient conflict unfolds against a backdrop of apocalyptic chaos. Their story explores themes of divine trauma, familial bonds, and the razor-thin line between destruction and salvation. As otherworldly creatures like the Halphobs and Kelxsiar emerge, the narrative promises a rich, immersive exploration of supernatural conflict.
Mitchell's path to publication is as compelling as the novel itself. During a challenging period marked by homelessness, depression, and struggles with alcoholism, writing became his lifeline. Rather than surrendering to circumstances, he transformed his experiences into creative fuel, ultimately establishing Trigonic Press and positioning himself as a multifaceted storyteller.
The novel represents more than a literary debut; it signals the launch of an ambitious multimedia storytelling ecosystem. Mitchell's vision extends beyond the book, with a limited series pilot already in early development and plans for a potential feature film adaptation of his second novel, 'The Legend of Sky City'.
By blending genres and creating characters that are simultaneously extraordinary and deeply human, Mitchell aims to challenge traditional storytelling conventions. 'Cataclysm Kin' represents a testament to resilience, creativity, and the transformative power of narrative—a story that emerged from personal struggle and promises to resonate with readers seeking complex, emotionally charged storytelling.
The first installment of a planned seven-book saga, 'Cataclysm Kin' will be available in multiple formats on July 15th, 2025, offering readers an entry point into what promises to be an expansive and immersive literary universe.
