Author in the Spotlight: Marion Webb-De Sisto

For the past twenty-five years Marion Webb-De Sisto has held a keen interest in Women's Spirituality, Crystal Therapy and the Celestial Hierarchy. She is a graduate member and former tutor of the International College of Crystal Healing, a Bach Foundation Registered Practitioner and a Reiki Master. Marion is also an experienced teacher/lecturer in both the UK and USA, being a guest speaker at holistic festivals, health shows and The Seeker's Trust. Having lived and worked in the US for many years, she presently resides in South East England with her American husband.  

This author believes she has been inspired to write by her passion for reading from a very early age. Her non-fiction books and novels have been available since 2001, being described by reviewers as "hard to put down" and "beautifully written." Marion’s writings are also featured in books by Diane Stein and Dick Sutphen. She describes herself as a people watcher and sees the human experience as one that is filled with possibilities and continuous change. The duality that exists within each person fascinates Marion and she uses her many years of working and communicating with people as a blueprint for 'fleshing out' the characters in her novels.

He's handsome, charismatic and extremely charming, but he's rapidly becoming a dark soul. A stirring account of how and why the first and most radiant archangel fell from grace and became the Devil. Samael's Fall takes a contemporary look at the Celestial Hierarchy and it presents a controversial portrayal of the angelic realms. These celestial beings make mistakes, harbor jealousy and sometimes use poor judgment. There's plenty of adventure, romance. sibling rivalry and treachery in this first book of a trilogy that explores the world of angels and demons.  

 

 

 

Abbadon: Book Two of The Angelic Chronicles 

This book presents a contentious and far-from-flawless viewpoint of many within the angelic horde. The word Abbadon is also another name for Hell, but in this book the author doesn't present the nether regions with the usual fire and brimstone perspective. Nevertheless, it's a dark and unwholesome place, ruled by a raging and embittered Archangel Samael. Together with his brother, Seriel, he has been exiled to this hellish domain and this means they are both separated from their beloved Malkura. Now, they keep company with demons, fallen angels and even a golden dragon. It is a tale of adventure, lost love and treachery instigated by Samael, a.k.a. the Devil.
