THE SERPENTS OF EDEN
A Novel
Beware of demigods baring gifts
Other than for his daughter and her ten-year-old son, wilderness artist Clay Middleton prefers rattlesnakes, cacti, and buzzards to people. He prefers them to supernatural beings, too, as he discovers when shape-shifting chimeras abduct his grandson. Aided by a reality-altering artifact and saddled with a gregarious young paranormal investigator, Clay must pursue the kidnappers across alternate apocalyptic Earths where a mad demigod’s promises of immortality threaten the very existence of Clay’s home world.

Bio
R W Goldsmith is the clever pen name of Richard W Goldsmith. He first became interested in writing back in the 90s when he was part of a wild-west re-enactor and stunt competition team in Southern California. As the group was in need of original western scripts, he tried his hand at writing.
Long story short, a state championship and a heart attack later, he began writing his first novel and has been pounding the keyboard ever since. He and his wife moved to Missouri in 2021 and, when he's not writing, he's dreaming up stories while boating on The Lake of The Ozarks.
Reviews
Feed Your Muse by R.W. Goldsmith was a tasty tale of satiating the source of talent, somewhat leaning toward a Feed me Seymour kind of outcome, cold silly, like a Tales From the Darkside episode.
