Odashen. Kamdemahn. Giant's Bane. Oldest One. On the worlds of the Avatar Alliance I am called many names and I am considered many things. Some see me as a holy warrior with a purpose so powerful, not even Death can stop me. Others think me a tormented wanderer, driven mad by a horrible fate and left to travel the wastes for eternity. Yet others see me as a soulless creature of otherworldly vengeance, returning from the grave to wreak havoc on my enemies. From my point of view, I am ALL of these things. Yet, I am none of them. My name is Max Niekro and I am Risen. I have been summoned back from the grave for one purpose and one purpose alone. I'm here to kill Velkin. Join the Risen juggernaut in this sequel to Risen: Darklight and the third book in the Risen saga as he continues his quest to defend Earth and the living of the galaxy by taking his war to the stars, where he will face even greater challenges to his effort to rid the universe of the rapacious Velkin, a giant alien race bent on consuming every living sentient being they find before sucking out their home world's life force.

This is a Fan-Fic of my Silver Moon world. I was asked if one of my fellow authors from lit.com could do one. We ended up doing this together. It is a story about a were-bear who happens on Dan's territory and manor. Enjoy.

The world is not as it seems. Humanity believes itself to be the dominant species on Earth, but they know nothing. They do not know the truth, and they would never believe even it if they were told. A loathsome evil watches from the fringes, its malevolent eyes set solely on Earth. It desires the total destruction of humanity; and to achieve that it will darken the skies and scorch the planet until nothing remained. Yet, a small band of warriors waits and watches; gifted beyond anything a mortal could hope to achieve. These men and women, blessed with eternal youth and physical prowess, were meant to protect humanity. But the darkness already seeps into the world, contaminating and corrupting everything it touches; including humanity's protectors. But one man holds the key to stopping this coming apocalypse; a young university student by the name of James Morrison. He knows the truth of the world, a secret almost as old as time; because this secret was once his to keep. Yet that secret had secrets of its own, and as the world collapses around him, James Morrison finds that not even he holds all the answers.

A child who has yet to draw his first breath becomes the obsession of an unknown entity; a powerful being who seeks to claim the thrones of both Heaven and Hell as its own and unleash Armageddon upon the mortal realm. Haunted by visions of its own undoing, this usurper will stop at nothing to eradicate the one responsible; this mortal child. Bishop, the Archwarrior, is declared the guardian of this unborn child, though he doesn't quite understand why he is tasked with such a role. But when forces rise from the depths of Hell, Bishop, along with his Warrior Angel siblings, quickly learn that this child is hunted by the usurper, who seeks not only the boy's death, but the demise of any who protect him. One fateful night, Max Harper's story begins. I would like to dedicate this book to my wife and son. Unfortunately this story is semi-true. My wife had five grand Mal seizures (I was driving when the first one occurred. Luckily we were only a few miles from a hospital) which led doctors on a course I was not ready to sail. She was put in a medically induced coma for five days. She pulled through with flying colors. My son was born at 1 lbs. 7 ounces. He spent a total of 112 days in the NICU, numerous surgeries. The amazing nurses and doctors making this rugged journey a little more easy to deal with. My son showed me strength I only thought existed in fairy tales. They were the inspiration for this story. I love you two endlessly.

Written as a companion novel to Risen and Risen: Darklight, Echoes of War tells us what the echoes, psychic reverberations of violent deaths that appear as ghosts and led by the incomparable Hannibal Barca of ancient Carthage, are doing between the major engagements of the two books. Which is a combination of learning both how to fight in a modern war while NOT killing each other as old conflicts arise with the return of memory. See how Hannibal begins to craft his determined volunteer ghosts into the formidable fighting force that plays a key role in not only the various raids the Risen engage in, but the assault on the siphon and the alpha tournament as well. He may only be an echo of his former self, but the former general is still one hell of a commander of soldiers! Join him and the echoes as they prepare to go to war against the Velkin.
