Terrah

Book excerpt: The time of the Khram Tabwuiq is drawing near and the Grand Inquisitor has finally learned that the key to it resides within the Word made flesh. He will stop at nothing in obtaining his prize - a young woman named Selene Ross. The devastating events of a final war of attrition decimate the human population to a mere 1 billion. Yet, a glimmer of hope lies in the discovery of a new planet - Terrah. However, rebuilding the human race is not as simple as the Reunited Nations had conceived. Sent to secure the new colony world, Lieutenant Selene Ross and the crew of the battlecarrier Solitude quickly become humanity's last hope for survival when the forces of the Grand Inquisitor strike with overwhelming force. Little does Selene know that she is the reason for the war. But she is not alone on her journey as she pines for fellow pilot Victor, who secretly shares the same longing for her under the jealous eyes of his comrade. Trapped in a hostile, militaristic world, the young souls aboard the Solitude must battle their own demons and confront the mysterious enemy from beyond the void.
