Robert (Rob) Wright has had a difficult time, even spending a period of time living on the streets.  After having gotten back up on his feet, he is now facing potential homelessness again, and he is close to despair.  After his last light bulb burns out, he lights a mysterious candle given to him by one of his clients. This candle summons the assistance of a magical creature, Atara, who warns him of impending danger.  When Rob stumbles into even greater danger at the club Neogothic, he again calls upon Atara for help.  What he discovers is an ancient battle between the forces of darkness and light, and he must fight for his own soul.The plot has a lot of potential.  However, I think that it needs much more development beyond its current 76 pages (epub version).  Most of the work was spent recounting the creation myth for Atara's home and subsequent battles between good and evil.  There was a lot less emphasis placed on character development.  There was quite a bit of repetition, and the dialogue did not flow very naturally.  I definitely see this becoming a full-length novel or even perhaps a trilogy.
