The Pitch
In these compelling pages, demons like . . .
Harry Potter’s dementors
lay waste to a pastoral world
very much like
Tolkien’s Middle Earth.
Sure, there’s lots of bravery and battles here, gore and grandeur, many marvels, much mystery, and even whimsy and wisdom. But there’s more.
Writing and revising this well-groomed 160,000-word manuscript for almost forty years now, eighty-four-year-old New Hampshire novelist, accomplished classical poet, master stylist, and veteran literature professor Johann M. Moser, Ph.D. has graced each of its pages with a command of language, imagery, and storytelling rarely encountered in any written works today.
But don’t take my word for it.
At this samples link you’ll find just over 130 pages of samples from this 500 page book. They’ll give you a sure sense of Moser’s storytelling prowess, his powerful voice, and his astounding literary range – from the disgusting to the sublime – affording you a taste of just a few of the frights and delights found in these dramatic (and often beautiful) pages.
Read some now.
Afterward, I think you’ll agree that The Song of the Eternal Aeons is the kind of epic you’d expect were JK Rowling, JRR Tolkien, and a first-rate poet to co-author a book.

By the way, recently and because I’m a semi-retired publisher, Moser asked me to help him find an agent for this novel. To that end, I’ve not only posted online for you here these 130 pages of samples, but used my skills to edit, proofread, typeset, and create through Ingram a 500-page printed edition to facilitate your reading. If you’d like to receive a copy, send along to me your UPS address, and you’ll receive your copy the day after tomorrow.
Sincerely,
John Barger, Ph.D.
