Believing in their right to rule, the Mother City of Etlantis, built
in the shadows of Mt. Arom, sent ships to hunt the Western Seas and
in them were the Nephilim, the Terrors, sons of Angels who had become
addicted to human blood and flesh through the curse of Enoch. And
when the skin of the earth became so weighted with the blood of its
dead, it cried to heaven of the horrors it had witnessed…
Because when the earth
passed through the endless dark it would be judged only by the
souls of those left standing. And unless the unclean were bound
in the heart of desert fire, unable to see the heavens that spawned
them, the Aeon of time that was called Earth would end, and all
existence would cease.
This is the story of
mankind’s first stand against overwhelming dark, a story
of Sunblades, Starwalker Queens, Nephilim, Blackships, the Mirrored
Eye of Daath, the Fires of a Distant Star; the Light Whose Name
is Splendor.

“Wright’s
inventiveness in bringing to life legends of an earlier apocalypse
results in a first-rate fantasy that belongs in most libraries.”
~ Library Journal (September 15, 2008)
“K.
Michael Wright has the right stuff as he provides a mesmerizing
thriller.”
~ Harriet Klausner, Midwest Book Review
