Paradise is a sprawling, diverse, often cruel world. There are humans on Paradise but dinosaurs predominate: wildlife, monsters, beasts of burden, and of war. Armored knights ride dinosaurs to battle legions of war-trained Triceratops and their upstart peasant crews. Karyl Bogomirsky is one such knight who has chosen to rally those who seek a way from the path of war and madness. The fact that the Empire has announced a religious crusade against this peaceful kingdom, the people who just wish to live in peace anathema, and they all are to be converted or destroyed doesn't help him one bit.Things really turn to mud when the dreaded Grey Angels, fabled ancient weapons of the Gods who created Paradise in the first place come on the scene after almost a millennia. Everyone thought that they were fables used to scare children. They are very much real.And they have come to rid the world of sin...including all the humans who manifest those vices. THE... Views: 49
“Don’t bother. It’s locked. There’s no way out of here. Even if you did get out, we’re surrounded by the forest. Please, don’t run, Belle. Don’t make me set the dogs free.”The drug on my lips linger, and the memory of my freedom slips further away while he drones. I thought I was free, hitchhiking along the Midnight Mountain Range, running from those I loved, and their betrayal. Now I’m trapped in a nightmare. One filled with betrayal, lust and a beast. That’s his story, about a beast that’s waiting for me. I try not to listen and plan my escape. But the savage howls from somewhere underneath this room makes me whimper in fear. Through the grimy windows, endless pine trees are all I can see.“He’s going to fall in love with you, I just know he will,” Mark says. The beast below isn’t the only one in this house. I’ve fought to survive before and I’ll fight again. Maybe this time, I’ll win. Views: 49
When terrorists kidnap the only sons of the US President and Vice-President during a University ski trip to Italy, they threaten to behead them within seven days unless the Americans release their leader who is currently being held in the Guantanamo Detention Camp in Cuba.
The two politicians then face a major problem due to the accepted US policy of refusing to negotiate with terrorists, but knowing that their sons will surely die unless they meet the terrorist's demands.
Consequently, the President calls in his top, undercover security specialists, Jake Harrigan, an ex-CIA 'black-ops' assassin and his partner, ex-FBI agent Sarah Schaumberg.
With the clock already ticking, their mission is to rescue the boys before the execution deadline as they quickly head over to Italy to try and pick up the cold trail, not realizing that the kidnapping was just the violent beginning of a confusing, world-shattering conspiracy. Views: 49
