War Zone Eden

Description

"War Zone Eden" is an ambitious and adventurous science fiction adventure that takes place thousands of years after the Earth was devastated by nuclear war. Mankind has rebuilt itself from the ground up and is on the brink of achieving time travel capability. Although the new frontier is a scientific wonder, it is not fully safe from galactic threats and structural flaws. Throughout this exciting novel, a group of unlikely allies must come together to protect their newfound world from danger and destruction. Martinez "Marz" Devereaux is a Theoretical Physicist assigned to study this new frontier when he discovers an anomaly in the sky millennium in the past...one that will destroy the earth if not remedied at the source. Traveling back in time, he and his son use mind meld technology to enlist the help of a primitive human male named Jaryl. They must find a way to use an ancient device to move this object in space before it reaches the crucial point in its orbit, sending the moon spiraling into the Earth. But the key to their plan requires getting Jaryl's betrothed, Kalina, and her unique abilities to the site to trigger the machine before it is too late, and many obstacles stand in their way. Radiation fallout from the wars has created giant insects, and Jaryl must face death in the valley of the spiders while his tribe, the Rashahdin, battles the vicious Kralni, enormous red ants. When scheming members of the tribe arrange to have Kalina banished and transported to the forbidden city, Jaryl finds himself embarking on a strange journey that will test his mental prowess, physical endurance, and faith in his gods. With help from Marz's son, Ryan, Jaryl races against time to rescue Kalina, as she holds the key to saving both the present...and the future...of mankind.
