July 14, 2025 - In Endor, his gripping debut novella, Asher Cain reimagines one of the Bible’s most unsettling moments—not with sanitized certainty, but through the shadows and silence threaded between scripture’s lines. Centered around the mysterious woman known as the Witch of Endor, the story unfolds in the final days of King Saul’s reign, where silence from heaven forces men to seek answers in the dark.
Dhava is a feared figure on the outskirts of Israelite rule—both legend and law unto herself. Among the outcasts and seekers who gather around her, she is more than a spiritual guide—she is a force of mystery, caution, and unspoken dread. She does not chase power, but it finds her anyway. And when a stranger stumbles into her camp, threatening her carefully held sway, the illusion begins to crack—setting in motion a series of events that culminate in a fateful night between a desperate king and the woman he once outlawed.
“This isn’t the version you heard in Sunday school,” Cain says. “It’s a story about fear, performance, and the things we reach for when everything we trusted goes silent.”
With King Saul’s world unraveling and Dhava's veiled authority threatened, Endor becomes a tale of pride, pretense, and prophecy—told through a chorus of flawed, compelling voices, including Saul’s son Jonathan, whose quiet strength stands in stark contrast to the fire consuming his father.
Endor is not sanitized, and it is not comfortable. It’s biblical fiction that dares to live in the tension—between power and illusion, belief and manipulation, calling and curse. With lyrical prose and an unflinching eye for the human condition, Cain invites readers into a forgotten moment where destinies converge, illusions fracture, and no one walks away unchanged.
Endor is available now on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0FFMXRYLM
