This is the first book in a series of books I will be writing. I'm not a really great writer, so please, no flames. I will delete flaming comments. Anyway, here's the plot summary:
The year is 3032. The world is a wildly different place from what it used to be. The United Nations, the ancient government that used to hold the countries of the world together, fell nearly a thousand years ago. For the last 500 years, the world has been involved in a bloody Civil War. The Faithful, those loyal to the United Nations, fight for the freedom of all mankind, while the Federation fights to establish a totalitarian Empire. For 400 years, the war was a stalemate. Until one day, THEY appeared. They were human in appearance, but they had powers. they could transform into different beasts of myth. Gryphons, Dragons, giant poisonous reptiles...these "Supers" joined the Faithful at first, but then the Federation began recruiting Supers of their own. The war once again became a stalemate...
