We spoke at a meeting a few months back and I\u2019m not sure what it was that I expected when I received his book but what ever my expectations were it was most certainly NOT <em>Saving The Dark Side \u2013 The Devotion<\/em>. To explain, when you listen to our conversation on this \u2018cast, Joe is a very likeable, dynamic, personable kind of guy with a genuine warmth and pleasant air about him. The conversation we had at the Expo was very nice and relaxed, albeit brief, as conversations in this type of setting usually are.<\/p>\n<p>So Joe created this universe and introduces us to its main character, Cole. When he was 3 years old he began to &#8220;disappear&#8221;. First for hours and then days at a time and never had any idea where he had gone. Joe slowly brings the reader jarringly through his childhood to the point at which Cole disappears from earth completely \u00a0into a series of events that continue to test and teach him about what he is truly capable of.<\/p>\n<p>Some books take your hand and gently guide you through a plot; others drop you in the middle of nowhere and force you to figure it out. This book punches you in the face again and again, and is compelling enough to make you want more and more. I warn you now; the reader will be coerced to root for Cole no matter what and you should. The book is that well written.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the book<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the conversation<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy the chaos<\/p>\n<span id=\"pod_audio_1\">&nbsp;<\/span><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('audio');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-9386-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast417.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast417.mp3\">http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast417.mp3<\/a><\/audio><p><a href='http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast417.mp3'>Download<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/castplayer?castfile=http:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast417.mp3&id=9386\" rel=\"0\" class=\"newPlayerWindow\" >Open Player in New Window<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9387\" style=\"width: 343px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1794284125\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9387\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9387\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-9387 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/41-WcETVwjL._SX331_BO1204203200_.jpg\" alt=\"Saving The Darkside Book One - the Devotion\" width=\"333\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/41-WcETVwjL._SX331_BO1204203200_.jpg 333w, http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/41-WcETVwjL._SX331_BO1204203200_-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 333px) 100vw, 333px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9387\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Saving The Darkside<br \/> Book One &#8211; the Devotion<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aeneriaiscoming.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a> for a free copy of his introductory short story\u00a0to this universe Her Gift For You<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aeneriaiscoming.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9388\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-9388\" src=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screen-Shot-2019-07-04-at-3.19.10-PM-194x300.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2019-07-04 at 3.19.10 PM\" width=\"112\" height=\"173\" srcset=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screen-Shot-2019-07-04-at-3.19.10-PM-194x300.png 194w, http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screen-Shot-2019-07-04-at-3.19.10-PM.png 593w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 112px) 100vw, 112px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-official sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-url=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=9386\" data-text=\"TalkCast 417 - Joseph Paradis Invents New Worlds\"  >Tweet<\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><div class=\"fb-share-button\" data-href=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=9386\" data-layout=\"button_count\"><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><div class=\"pinterest_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fscifisaturdaynight.com%2F%3Fp%3D9386&#038;media=http%3A%2F%2Fscifisaturdaynight.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2019%2F07%2F41-WcETVwjL._SX331_BO1204203200_.jpg&#038;description=TalkCast%20417%20-%20Joseph%20Paradis%20Invents%20New%20Worlds\" data-pin-do=\"buttonPin\" data-pin-config=\"beside\"><img src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_gray_20.png\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you go to Author Expo\u2019s or conventions you can meet tons of diverse people and if you\u2019re foolish enough to \u201cjudge a book by its cover\u201d or in this case &#8220;an author by his looks&#8221;, you may sometimes \u2018have gravely misjudged the situation\u2019.
