Critically Acclaimed Film Writer Laurice Elehwany Molinari Unveils First Novel

Nov. 8, 2013 - PRLog -- Grand Rapids, MI--- Strange events begin to plague the everyday suburban life of Vero Leland. To his amazement, he effortlessly clears two hurdles at a time while running track.  He sees hideous demonic creatures, maltures, that no one else can see.

After being attacked by two maltures, Vero is suddenly transported to the Ether, the spiritual realm that surrounds the earth.  It is in this mysterious realm that he discovers he is to be a guardian angel.  But before he can be counted among these fiercest of warriors, Vero must train with other fledgling angels in angel school, aka C.A.N.D.L.E. (The Cathedral of Angels for Novice Development, Learning and Edification).

Under the tutelage of the mighty archangels, Vero learns to fly and battle mythological biblical creatures such as the leviathan and behemoth. Yet at the same time, Vero must continue to live his ordinary 12-year-old earthly life. A life he loves, full of friends and family, but one he must  soon leave behind if he is to fulfill his destiny in the war of good versus evil.

Hollywood film and TV writer, Laurice Elehwany Molinari, best known for her critically acclaimed feature script,  “My Girl,” draws readers into young Vero’s tumultuously changing world in The Ether: Vero Rising.

The Ether:Vero Rising is available  with hardcover for  $16.99 on February 4, 2014.
