The long-awaited sequel to the #1 Amazon Kindle Bestseller in Teen and Young Adult Christian Science Fiction has arrived!After narrowly escaping the clutches of NATAS (Nations in Alliance for Total Atheocracy among States), Talon and Naomi have returned to the Star Kingdom of Manna only to find the real battle has just begun.Now Queen of Manna, Naomi faces the pervasive threat of insurrection. Opposition forces, orchestrated by shadowy NATAS splinter cells, threaten to overthrow the Star Kingdom’s gridlocked Parliament, an inept organization actively undermined by its traitorous prime minister. Even Naomi’s own brother has unwittingly succumbed to the unholy Alliance’s far-reaching influence.Meanwhile, the recently promoted Knight Commander Talon Vance has arrived on the planet Katana to take command of the 6th Royal Defense Battalion – the Lion of Judah. Despite successfully protecting Naomi on Nabarun, Talon’s request for an off-world assignment is a self-imposed exile intended to help him abandon his forbidden feelings for the Queen of Manna. Her own forbidden feelings notwithstanding, Naomi remains betrothed to the arrogant Prince Ludwig of Neu-Deutschland, a vital ally and source of military assistance Manna desperately needs if it is to survive the power struggle against NATAS.Charged with ensuring the defense of Sakoku Island and its tessadaranium mining colony, Talon soon finds himself embroiled in his own political quagmire when a new Shogun emerges to lead the Emperor of Katana’s Imperial Army. Talon and the Lion of Judah quickly find themselves headed toward an undesirable war against Samurai forces led by a Shogun with disturbing ties to the demon-possessed General Legion, an Alliance bogeyman who will stop at nothing to make Talon pay for the death of his brother.To make matters worse, the nefarious pirate lord Francois Lafitte has been freed from captivity, unleashed by NATAS to attack and disrupt the Star Kingdom’s space stations and vital lines of commerce.At the heart of these sinister developments is The Master himself, the Alliance’s mysterious overlord and the Creator’s ancient nemesis. Relentless in the pursuit of crushing Adonai’s followers, he will stop at nothing to destroy Manna and her sister kingdom, the Kaiserreich of Neu-Deutschland.As direct conflict approaches, who will stand against the forces of evil during Manna’s darkest hour? After a series of demoralizing defeats have left him broken in body and spirit, Talon struggles to find cause for hope as his faith has become forlorn. His last chance at redemption lies in uncovering the hidden truth behind his own troubling past as a startling revelation emerges to challenge everything he has been led to believe about his true identity and purpose.---Praise for Book Two (Talon’s Truth and the Sword of the Spirit):"The long-awaited sequel was well worth the wait! Keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very last minute. Such well-rounded characters - not 'perfect heroes' but flawed personalities that we can all relate to. This book is the perfect combination of storytelling and inspirational writing. Absolutely brilliant!" - Miranda, Amazon UK ReviewPraise for Book One (Talon’s Test and the Shield of Faith):"The plot is incredibly fast-paced with some twists, turns and surprises that never cheat the reader... a remarkable performance. If you like action and adventure, don't miss this novel." - End Times Tavern"...Hair raising encounters, literal leaps of faith, and enemies within striking distance... this is an amazing read." - Woad Writer---Genres: christian, christian science fiction, christian fantasy, teen & young adult christian science fiction, christian speculative fiction, science fiction, space opera, galactic empire, space team, space war, military science fiction, dragons, starship, action, adventure, space fleet, space marines, colonization, space exploration, aliens.
