    'SoulBound' by Greg Pappas

    The publisher has finally finished with the entire pre-release arrangements, and I should receive the first copy of the book within a week or so. Once I submit to them that the novel is in good order (both exterior and interior) then the book will become available to the public.

    I'm very excited... I'll post again when I have a link.


    P.S.> There is a chance that I'll be having a huge Book Release Party sometime at the end of July or early August... so I'll try to make an announcement about that as soon as I'm able.

    EDIT: SoulBound is now available at SoulBoundTheNovel.com

    SoulBound is what I would term a 'supernatural thriller.' It revolves around the main character, Jimmy, who discovers as a boy that he has a unique gift; he is a soul collector. He comes to realize that he has a Light that attracts certain lost souls to him… like moths to a flame, and he bonds with these ghosts; people from various countries and times in history… and interacts with them as if they were alive. He carries within him their memories, abilities, and emotions, and refers to them as the SoulBound.

    Jimmy is now 26 -with twelve souls inside him- and is a highly regarded history professor that speaks six languages… and he’s in love. Dee, the love of his life, is unaware of the SoulBound, so Jimmy must tell her, while also trying to deal with the dark mystery behind the death of his latest and youngest soul; a six-year old girl named Carrie Ann. He learns that she was murdered by a serial killer called The Shadow That Speaks, and with the help of his SoulBound, Jimmy must hunt him down, as the FBI can’t catch him.
