Gestalt
8 primary works
Book 1
After experiencing a crisis of faith, Father Olivier of the Valaria Order decides to go to G and find out the truth behind the legends. Olivier's journey is unsanctioned, and the head of the Order engages the dark elf Suzu to stop him. As he begins his quest, Olivier encounters Ouri, a young girl from the south who cannot speak. But Ouri reveals another side of herself when Suzu catches up to them!
Book 2
Olivier, priest of the Valaria Order, is not his usual self, and Ouri summons an incubus to draw out the seed of Olivier's black mood. Later, the 'game' between Ouri and her siblings becomes clearer as they all make their way toward G and the great treasure that awaits the winner. Ouri, however, is playing with a few interesting handicaps - but that won't slow down their progress toward G, even if Ouri and Olivier's enemies aren't about to give them a break!
Book 3
The quest for a man's soul, the battle for his heart, the war for a world.
In the legendary past the gods battled for supremacy and cast out the demon god whose name cannot be spoken. Banished to Earth, the demon found refuge on the mysterious and dangerous island known only as "G."
Suzu uses everything she's got to drive her sisters away and increase her powers. Meanwhile, Olivier seeks a weapon to use against evil pursuers, and himself, if "Black Olivier" comes through again. How did this terrible fate befall Olivier, and what effect will his protective measures have on both him and his companions? Is the secret history of Gestalt somehow mirrored in the present? Time will tell, but not before Ouri gets another chance to mop the floor with some persistent enemies!
