Book Description

With knowledge comes a dark destiny...

A whole new world beckons inside the mind of mentally challenged Welsey Henson, a world that offers him a gift he can’t resist: knowledge. He carries these bits of knowledge back to the physical world, unaware of the dark instincts that come with them. The knowledge builds Wesley's intellect, giving him abilities he’s never had before—to know the world around him, to heal...but these new instincts thrust him into an evil contest he can't understand, much less win, against opponents who are trained to kill. The more Wesley understands, the harder it becomes to tell good from evil, and the more difficult his choices become. What must he sacrifice to save the world from his dark knowledge...his life, or his soul?

Review

"Pyeatt has created an intense tale of horror that is one of the most gripping reads I've read this year...I highly recommend diving into Dark Knowledge if you're looking for an entertaining read that is as dark as it is brilliant." - Fictitious Musings Review.

"I would recommend this to all who love horror and fantasy but also to those who enjoy a thought provoking look at good and evil. Dark Knowledge is guaranteed to satisfy." - Bitten by Books

Dark Knowledge is the second offering from Keith Pyeatt, and it assures his place with the masters of paranormal literature. Great plot and easy to read. Excellent character development. Riveting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sinister, Dark and Thoroughly Engaging October 1, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
This is the first book I have read by this author but it won't be my last. I was gripped from page 1 and particularly liked the way he handled his cast of complex and evolving characters. The balance of horror, suspense and the chilling twists and turns of the plot as the central character discovers the awful destiny that awaits him meant that the pace was consistently maintained throughout. This story is multi-layered and keeps you on your toes which I really enjoyed. Fans of good horror stories should love this. I certainly did!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Horror with Heart" November 27, 2012
Format:Paperback
If you're looking for the thrill of a skillfully crafted horror novel, Dark Knowledge is an excellent choice. But the pleasure doesn't stop there. Author Keith Pyeatt also creates an ensemble of fascinating characters to carry out his fantastic plot. The story's unique hero, a mentally challenged young man named Wesley Henson, leads the cast and wins your heart in the very first chapter. As Wesley faces terrifying paranormal threats and engages in a life-or-death struggle between good and evil, you will cheer him on and keep reading until you know whether he triumphs or succumbs. Dark Knowledge more than satisfies author Pyeatt's promise of "Horror with Heart."

More About the Author

Keith Pyeatt spent a decade living in an isolated log cabin he built in northeastern Vermont, USA. He began that decade an engineer and came out of it a novelist. He won't say what happened in those rural woods that turned him, but after reading his novels, it's easy to suspect it had something to do with things that go bump in the night.

Keith's novels might be labeled literary horror, psychological thrillers, paranormal suspense, magical realism, or dark fantasy, but Keith calls them Horror with Heart. His novels tend to be high concept, with huge consequences for mankind if the hero fails to save the day, but it's the characters Keith takes particular pleasure in developing. They come to feel like real, flawed beings to him, whether they're lovable, despicable, tortured, or those "in-between" characters you can't quite decide whether to love or hate.
