3 rival factions ... 2 days to stop the President ... 1 eternal war. Time is desperately running out for White Shadow-a vigilante group with superhuman abilities-in their quest to execute the newly elected President before he damages Athenia any further. The inauguration looms, as does a new era of chaos for the already corrupt nation. Little do they know that Black Dawn have plans of their own for fixing the country: by controlling the President's every move, doing whatever it takes-and sacrificing whoever necessary-to ensure he comes into power. But both factions are being monitored by the Tianzu, an all-powerful clan who will stop at nothing to keep the peace, even if that means killing those who stand in their way. All three have their own vision for a perfect world. But in an eternal war, there can be no victor ... A fast-paced action adventure book reminiscent of X-Men, Game of Thrones, and shounen manga, Eternity's War is a gripping cyberpunk technothriller featuring vengeful assassins, dark corporations, relentless vigilantes, and government conspiracies.
