WHAT THEY ARE SAYING...

 ABOUT 

THE BURDEN KEEPER'S REPORTS


 The Burden Keeper’s Reports tackles the greater questions of good and evil and our place in that debate and how our lives and choices are connected to the fabric of the universe. The message is clear, what in your time on earth will you do with your wild bit of dust?" Douglas Cole, award-winning author and poet--- D.C., Seattle


Speculative fiction now has another novella to celebrate. The Burden Keeper's Reports bring wonder and thought about our universe and how it came to be. The next time you see a falling star or a flash of unknown light in the sky, The Burden Keeper's Reports offers an answer--- M.B., Oakland





The Burden Keeper's Reports and other Bize-Boutte works available at Amazon, Goodreads and other booksellers.

THE BURDEN KEEPER IS HERE!

 That sliver of light at the bottom of the closed door, could be from the unshaded bulb, or the muted impression of the glow from a dimmed chandelier. 

 A faint line of light coming through the gap in the slats of the window blinds, then embedding itself on the kitchen wall, could be from the sun, the moon or a distant star. 

Or in another time and place in which these things no longer occur with normal regularity, it could be the Burden Keeper, arrived and ready.
