Science, will want to give this one a whirl."

esoteric philosophical musings that is sure to hit the sweet spot for readers
looking for a cerebral dose of action.” - Library

coming is a sign from God, and Emmerich Bell, the man who shot him down not

a struggle for survival quickly becomes a journey to the very edges of what it
means to be human, as Pollux searches for answers among the ruins of this

revenge.From the creators of
