About Hellbound

“You look very confused when I say I’m just trying to help these lost souls make their way to Heaven,” he said. “The reason you’re confused is that you think I’m speaking metaphorically. Well, my dear friend, take it very literally. You see, I may have introduced myself as Asmodeus, but let me run off a few of my more well known aliases. Now, let’s see, we have Mephistopheles, Beelzebub, Bafomet, Iblis, The Fallen One, Lucifer, The Morning Star, Lord of the Dark, The Devil, oh and my favorite; Satan.”

Face to face with Satan, Michael has awoken in the bowels of Hell with no memory of who he is, or why he has been damned.

Hell, however, isn’t what he expected. Rather than the fires of torment, he finds a hedonistic city of gambling, sex, murder and revenge.

With the Devil as his guide, Michael embarks on a quest of self-discovery and self redemption. But will he get a second chance at salvation? And why is Satan helping him?

Hellbound is a contemporary view of Hell, exploring today’s idea of sin and religion, through witty dialogue and bursts of descriptive prose.

Dark, funny and philosophical.

About the Author, Tim Hawken

Born in Australia, Tim Hawken is a philosophical wunderkid. His creative writing not only entertains, it probes the deepest questions to life. His wit and humour often disguise the serious nature of his work.

Tim holds a Bachelor Degree in Art and Commerce from Deakin University, majoring in Literature, Journalism and Marketing.

Raised in a small coastal town near Melbourne, Tim’s childhood passion was surfing. He won a state junior championship in the sport, and competed on the professional junior circuit in Australia. During his travels, Tim fell in love with reading and writing. This pursuit led him to enrol in Literature Studies at university, where his creative writing garnered the attention of the professors and tutors.

His first novel was born while on the road, written on aeroplanes and hotel rooms. Titled Hellbound, the book was discovered on an online writer’s forum by Dangerous Little Books author CJ Werleman (God Hates You, Hate Him Back), who immediately recommended it to his publisher. It has already received strong praise from a steadily growing fan base of readers.

He is no doubt a future superstar of fiction.
