“This was a tense rollercoaster ride. The Navigator is like a combination of 1984, Ender’s Game, and Brave New World with a dusting of Starship Troopers.” Amazon Reviewer.
“Excellent story, well thought out and well executed. Great characters, nicely developed. Looking forward to the next in the series.” Amazon Reviewer.
“Wonderful and exciting new read.” Amazon Reviewer.
“Nonstop action. Exciting plot that leaves you breathless. A great cast of characters that continues to grow and evolve, I want to continue to follow their story and learn more about the Apollo stone.” Amazon Reviewer.
EARTH HAS CHANGED. The old world order collapsed following the meteor impacts of 2031 when fire rained down from the skies, instantly vaporizing millions. Billions more died during the Long Winter and resource wars that followed. Over one hundred years have passed since those devastating events and new societies have formed around the globe.
In North America, the fragile peace that exists among the continent’s independent nations and city states is under threat. The ambitious Grand Guardian of the People’s Republic of America is mobilizing his massive war machine in order to make real his dream of reunifying a former great power. But on the eve of the offensive, a leading scientist dies under mysterious circumstances, though not before he entrusts another with the key to unlocking a secret so powerful, it could not only unravel the Grand Guardian’s designs, but also doom, or save, all of humanity.
The Warrior, The Renegade, and The Conqueror (the final book in the series), now available. Also available, The Apollo Stone Series: The Complete Collection.
Description
From the Publisher
Every Beginning flows from an Ending
The Impact
The Impact nearly wiped us out. Fire rained down from the skies, smashing into Earth’s land and seas. Earthquakes, firestorms, and tsunamis followed. Millions died instantly. Ash and dust rose high into the atmosphere blocking the sun, ushering in the Long Winter. That’s when the real dying started. Famine, war, revolution. Governments collapsed. The only law was that of survival. That was over a hundred years ago. Today, the world's a different place, but it's anything but peaceful. In North America, the Grand Guardian’s armies are on the march behind a secret weapon of unearthly power.
The Apollo Stone
It's been a few years since the initial volleys in Earth's first interplanetary conflict, but it's a false peace. The Grand Guardian still hungers for power and territory. The Queen of the Sahiradin still wants to bring us and the rest of the galaxy to our knees. On Earth, a Navigator has emerged, but the Apollo Stone has vanished. Everyone's looking for it, the Lycians, the Sahiradin, us. It would give the advantage to the side that controls it. But in the hands of a Navigator, its power is absolute.
A Galaxy at War
The entire galaxy's caught up in the fight and the Sahiradin have the upper hand. The Lycian Alliance is splintering. Earth must choose between neutrality and officially joining the Alliance. But the old ways of waging war won’t work against this alien threat. Bold action is required if Earth is to survive.
The Will to Fight
The war drags on and commitment to victory wanes. Now there’s a new player in the game, a mysterious military force whose leader professes friendship. But he’s not the trustworthy type. As Earth prepares for Sahiradin invasion, the rest of the Alliance must decide whether it is preferable to submit to their ancient enemy or place their fate in the hands of an untested new ally.
