The Eight of Earth is my debut novel and just released on Amazon! I have worked on this novel for the last four years as I played Major League Baseball and although an injury forced me to retire early, it gave me the opportunity to finish this epic story! Posted here is Part 1 and if you enjoy it, you can pick up the story over on Amazon. Just search for: The Eight of Earth. So without further ado... the book blurb:
The Eight of Earth are the only humans left in existence. They were birthed from artificial wombs, a century after the extinction of mankind, on a world far from Earth, doomed to be the last of their race and surrounded by the alien citizens of the planet.
As Leo attempts to save the human race from its second and final extinction, he stumbles upon a mysterious Ancient vault that kickstarts a chain of events that will change the course of history. Now, all Eight lives begin to spiral out of control as they encounter: century-old secrets, a debt owed to a ruthless crime lord, an incurable disease, a deadly jungle, the soul-crushing guilt of death, and a battle for one man's mind.
They're humanity's second chance... but they have to survive Valenia first
