A secret war. An empire in crisis. One final hope for victory.

Cris Sietinen was raised to lead the galaxy-spanning Taran Empire. Unfortunately, he wants nothing to do with business and politics.

To get a fresh start, Cris joins the TSS, a branch of the Taran military specializing in sanctioned telekinesis training. However, Cris learns that the TSS has been secretly waging a war for centuries against the Bakzen, a mysterious race with advanced telekinetic abilities… and the Empire is losing.

As evidence of a galactic conspiracy orchestrated by the governing Priesthood comes to light, Cris realizes that only someone in his unique position can bridge the needs of the TSS with the welfare of the Taran Empire. With the future of their people at stake, he and his family embark on a decades-long journey to save their civilization from certain destruction.

Liam consults the ship’s computer to determine their location, but he can’t access that information. The captain claims that there’s nothing to worry about, but Liam wonders: if there’s nothing to worry about, why restrict access to the ship’s nav data?

Before they can learn more, the ship plunges into darkness, and suddenly the cruise of a lifetime turns into a trip to hell. As the crisis unfolds, Liam and his family are thrust into the middle of a deadly conspiracy and a desperate struggle for survival.

THE SUN VANISHED AND DARKNESS FELL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY
AND THEN THE METEORS BEGAN TO FALL…
Bill Steele is in the trenches, trying to survive in the competitive world of luxury vacation resorts on the island of Kauai. Today is a particularly bad day; the water main burst and his guests are demanding refunds and promising bad reviews. In the middle of this, a dark shadow falls over the island. It’s not a lunar eclipse, because Bill can see the crescent moon shimmering on the water.

Moments later, the meteors begin to fall. One of them lands in the water just beyond the resort, and everyone flees, screaming to their rooms. Bill and his daughter watch the news from their third-floor suite. The anchorman is fleeing from his hillside vantage point with his cameraman in hot pursuit. His muffled screams are the last thing anyone hears before the signal is lost…

Twins Finn and Eric’s peaceful lives are turned upside down when they are suddenly chased from their home and find themselves in another world they had no idea existed. There, they become embroiled in a fight for survival, hunted down by Venera, evil Queen of the Fairy race, and the war hungry King Drer, leader of the Elven people. Both desire something from the twins, the true meaning of which Finn and Eric are not even aware.

As they start to encounter friends and foes along the way, the truth about their lives and the power that lies within their possession, begins to emerge. However, after becoming separated in this strange and hostile world, the chances of them surviving long enough to find one another and escape back to earth, get slimmer by the hour.

The Other Side is the first novel in this thrilling dark fantasy trilogy.
