Excerpt
"We will not survive this march. It will soon be
freezing and we are not equipped for it," whined the prisoner walking
besides Briah. "It is a sign from God. First, he releases these Conquerors
from the foot of the mountain. Then, he brings the snow and ice while we are
homeless without shelter and fire."
Briah looked at the man for the first time and
immediately recognized him as a priest. His name was Brother Mable. Briah
narrowed her eyes at him suspiciously.
"You should not speak of such things. This is
not of God's doing, and you will scare the other people here."
His tone transformed instantly from one of shrill
despondency to authoritative strength.
"Don't talk to me that way, poor girl. You are
misguided; it is of God's doing. He is upset at us for embracing technologies.
It is forbidden! I recognize you. You are one of the sisters that dwell in the
mountain. You think you have the right to live closer to God, and you think you
have the right to dig under his mountain. It is placed there for a reason. We
dug too deep. It is you and your kinds' fault for influencing the King and
angering the Creator! The city has fallen to the soulless heathen invaders and
our gateway to the afterlife has been taken!"
The priest was raising his voice and other prisoners
were beginning to take interest in their conversation.
Briah glanced around at the other prisoners and
realized she might need protection from the guards based on some of the looks
she was receiving.
"Be quiet you fool." She snapped at the
priest. "You will draw the attention of the guards and they do not care
what your status is. Neither do I."
Blurb
A black wave of terror has passed over the thriving kingdom
of Larista. Mysterious invaders have swept over the land, laying waste to
everything in their path and leaving ghost towns in their wake. No one knows
where they came from and no one knows their purpose.
Tasting nothing but defeat after defeat after, the light of
hope is fading in the kingdom; but the guerilla forces resisting the invasion
have received new information. The news has provided a small glimmer that could
possibly spark into something more. Captain Maximus Rex leads a daring rescue
mission deep in the Laristan forests to save the lone surviving member of the royal
family.
Once freed, Prince Alexander Novelle, along with his friends
and comrades, face a perilous journey deep behind enemy lines. Their
destination is Castle Varanasi. The once proud Laristan capital, gateway to
heaven and salvation, lines in ruins under Dolus occupation.
Mysterious assassins, underworld savages and renegade Dolus
survivors stand between them and the answers they seek. What they find there
will shatter their perceptions and lead to unknown perils none of them are
ready to face.
