There is no way to get past my attacker and
the two crocodile Creepers. The Creeper birds circling above the platform are
an extra layer of security. I’m trapped. Is death the only way out of this? The
only way to save Beth? I don’t want to die. But unlike Beth, an early death was
written in my cards long ago. She could live to eighty or even a hundred. I’ll
be lucky to make it to twenty. As much as I want to enjoy every moment of every
day until my time naturally runs out, her life is worth more than mine. I swore
to protect it. One thing is certain. If I live, she dies.
I take in the bird’s-eye view of the
Garden. The view of one world from the sky of another. The Creepers flap their
massive wings, circling nearer, my hair whipping across my face from the draft.
“It’s a long way down, Synthia.”
“That’s one thing we agree on.” I shrug
into my backpack and face him. “Another thing we agree on is that some things
are worse than death. Like losing a loved one.”
“A loved one someone takes from you,” He
says, with malice.
“I am sorry about that. But you’re not
going to kill Beth for revenge.”
“Oh? Why is that?”
“Because you can’t make me witness
something if I’m dead.” With that, I whirl around and hop onto the railing,
teetering forward, gasping with panicked second thoughts.
“No!” He screams.
Defiantly, I heave myself off the railing.
No One Dies in the Garden of Syn
(The Garden of Syn #1)
Synthia (Syn) Wade is a teenage girl who struggles with cystic fibrosis, an incurable life-threatening disease. One day she is pushed into a pond by an unseen figure and wakes up in a new world – a mysterious garden where illness and death don’t exist.
Welcomed by the garden’s residents and now free of her symptoms, Syn decides to stay. But, before long, she realizes that this apparent utopia holds many dangers and dark secrets.
Surrounding the garden is a fog that Syn is warned never to enter. She encounters bizarre creatures that defy reason. And always lurking in the shadows is a masked woman - a woman who may have a connection to the disappearance of Syn’s parents many years ago. A woman whom no one will speak of, but whom everyone fears.
While No One Dies in the Garden of Syn, Syn will soon discover that some fates are worse than death.

My name is Michael Seidelman. I was born in Vancouver, BC Canada where I continue to reside. When I was growing up, my passions were reading, watching movies, nature and creative writing. Not much has changed since then. In high school when I had an opportunity to write short stories in class, I relished reading them out loud to my classmates who would gasp at the unexpected twists and applaud when I was done. I took several creative writing classes and have continued writing over the years while working in Interactive Marketing.
About two years ago, I decided to take some time off to focus on my writing and work on a Young Adult trilogy. The first book in The Garden of Syn series – No One Dies in the Garden of Syn – will be released on April 26th. Meanwhile, I am working hard on the second and third books in the series.
Getting up every morning and sitting down to create new characters and bring new worlds to life is the most fulfilling job I have ever had. Beyond the trilogy, I have many ideas plotted out and I look forward to sharing them all with the world!
