OverviewA Dark Romance & Introduction to the Vanguardian Military Science Fiction SeriesThe empire of Monde is the envy of its neighbors. While fleeing her war-threatened home, Nasrin finds refuge in Monde, where a fateful encounter with a mysterious being leaves her pregnant. Stranded in a foreign land, she must raise her son, Lucian, in seclusion. But as Lucian grows, he begins to manifest strange, terrifying powers that will change the fate of the empire. When Fabien de Vistré, Marshal of Monde, captures Nasrin, duty demands he punish her. Instead, he shields her and her child-threatening his standing with the king. The marshal knows his duty: serve His Majesty and enforce the law. Yet his preoccupation with Nasrin drags him into dangerous defiance. Lucian's gifts cannot remain hidden. As he grows, he defies his mother's warnings, drawing the attention of rival kings. When he reaches manhood, his powers shift-something darker begins to guide him. And after a long-buried secret surfaces, the empire that once offered refuge may become a battlefield.

Table of ContentsReviews""A beauty of noble heritage... a powerful duke with hidden motives... beings from another world... danger and intrigue. I picked up this book and could not put it down. Vanguardian is an astounding achievement."" - Michael McConnell, editor of NYT bestsellers, including Homesick for Another World and Eileen, winner of the Man Booker Prize ""A Spirited and Proficiently Written Debut That Has My Mouth Hung Open like the Catch Of The Day: S.N. Petro (aka The Clerk) released the first three chapters from her upcoming novel, The Warrior From Monde recently through social media. Noticing immediately the high class and well-written form of the piece, I knew that I wasn't dealing with the likes of any amateur writer. I wouldn't even feel comfortable using the term amateur to describe such a work."" - Eric May, author of The Will's Downfall Saga and Owner/Operator of The Grim Tower ""You paint a wonderfully visual story, sista!"" - Member of Black Science Fiction Society Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
