AMERICA 2042CE: A
down-and-out disaster specialist finds she’s the last of a long line of magical
Druid priestesses carrying the bloodline of William the Conqueror. To make
matters worse, she is expected to fill the shoes of her new father, the
erstwhile Grand Druid whose coma is likely the result of foul play. Taught to run
from adversity by a mother who carried the secret of her powers and heritage to
an alcoholic grave, and faced with a foe known only as “The Darkness”, she must
race the clock, cramming twenty-six years’ of training in to the short time left.
On the opposite coast her nemesis, a sorceress-turned-holy-woman, is targeted and tagged by the invisible foe: a race of Reptilian aliens residing in Earth’s interior. Placed there millennia ago and kept secret and apart from the Humans by a forgetfulness curse enforced by dragon guards, the Reptilians are determined to take control of the planet. Led by a nasty Draco general, they will use the evangelist and others like her to pit the humans against one another, leaving Earth ripe for the picking.
It's a bit wordy still,
weighing in at 183 words, but this is the story in a nutshell. What do you
think? Are you intrigued enough to buy an advance copy of the book?
