The young men of the Eastward Kiva Society join their allies, Dr. Nastas Deschene, the Nation's coroner and a forensic anthropologist; Joseph Eagle Wings, Chief of the Nation's Police; Susan Calvin, investigative reporter and now wife of Dr. Deschene; Doli Tabahaa, lawyer and lobbyist; and FBI Special Agent in Charge Gabrielle Winder to solve the mystery.

Son of Wolf
Garreth is born of a surrogate – his mother is captain of a starship on a ten thousand-year mission. He is attacked by assassins when he is six days old. His childhood is marked by games of war. When he is six, Garreth sees a brother taken away for execution because he is a demon – a telepath. Garreth knows he, too, is a telepath, and fears discovery. At age eight, he encounters a feral wolf in the forest and adopts the wolf, whom he names Arawan, meaning “unrestrained wildness.” One hundred eleven years after his birth, he is Helmsman of the Corvette Cardis, a starship of his father’s fleet, when the ship encounters – and attacks – a starship of his species’ Adversary.

In 2015, he contacts one of these seeding ships. This is their story.

Holy Fire
A dystopian future in which plutocrats, politicians, and preachers motivated by money and power gain control of the USA. Their goals are, at first, similar enough to make them allies, but what happens when greed and lust overtake them? What happens when a few people, guided by the principles of The Enlightenment, rebel? Can they make a difference? Can they stop the forces of War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death – the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and the Fifth Horseman – Climate Change – before it is too late? Paperback $17.95 Kindle $3.95 Kindle Unlimited Free Holy Fire kept me on the edge of my seat and gave me an adrenaline high ... It was such a great example of homo sapiens in the midst of a Greek Tragedy. Thanks for the Good Read. (Private communication to the author) |
