| | | | Category: Fantasy, Science Fiction eBook Title: The Glyph Saga Book One: A Great Escape Author: D. K. N. Yuko eBook Description:
Imagine an Earth where following a series of bizarre nuclear accidents, the landmasses, languages, cultures, and political structures have drastically changed. One third of the population, which consists of Androids, Soligrams, Homo sapiens, and Homo radians, have been blessed (or cursed) with supernatural abilities, thanks to alien intervention. Split into three warring Regions, the tightly-knit World Leaders have closets brimming with skeletons. Welcome to Ecliptic Earth. The Glyph Saga: Book One, A Great Escape, is the first installment of this seven book series. Set in the year 2098 SF, this ebook centers on the activities in the super region Panga Uno Animo. The PUA is an opulent, yet grueling, oligarchy with a fierce loathing of nature. The time has come for the Elder Dictators to initiate their highly trained children as future Leaders, with a lifelong commitment of unmitigated corruption and terror. However, a few of these Chosen Ones have had their fill of the despotism and autocracy in their dystopian home, and decide to make a break for it using their special superpowers to their advantage. It is up to these deserter offspring, with mysterious assistance from a remnant rebel, to escape the force field-protected gates of pretty oppression and attempt to usher in a new era of world peace and prosperity. Not, of course, without the obstructions of forbidden knowledge, lust, alien invasion, betrayal, loss, rejection, personal growth, and Life Form Warfare.

Freed from the miniature AI embedded in his control unit, Sabre is now in charge of his own destiny for the first time. He continues to help the young queen whose plight brought him to the post-holocaust planet of Omega Five, partly because he has grown attached to the high-spirited girl and partly because the AI is still able to punish him for disobeying her. Sabre is forced to take Tassin into the Badlands in order to escape her enemies, much to her horror and despite her protests. At the centre of the radioactive desert, a legacy of the nuclear war centuries ago, is the Death Zone, and no one who has ventured into it has survived to tell the tale. Mutated monsters prowl the ever-changing Flux-realities within the Zone, where slices of alien worlds sweep through at irregular intervals. Sabre's scanners do not work, hampering him, but his peerless fighting skills ensure Tassin's safety, although hardships take their toll. A furry form-shifting denizen of the Zone befriends and guides them, but Flux-reality becomes increasingly dangerous as they venture further in. Sabre finds that he must not only protect the strong-willed young queen from the Zone's dangers, but also the pint-sized girl's conviction that she is a warrior queen and able to take on massive monsters with nothing more than a dagger - since the sword she stole is too heavy for her - and an overabundance of courage. By the time they emerge on the far side of the Zone, Tassin is gravely ill, and Sabre... Click here to read the full description!

This novel is told as a long letter written by John Densch to his son, but the letter is addressed to his son ten years in the future. In it, John tries to understand what happened to him and his family after an accidental media circus brings them momentarily into the national limelight - and brings John into suspicion in the case of a missing person. John himself is trying to wrestle with memories from his childhood that he intertwines into his narrative. He realizes, eventually, that those memories - those stories of alien abduction and time travel - matter to him in ways he had never realized before. The story has a wide cast of characters and philosophical questions. But it all comes down to: who is the bog monster and what does he want?
