Miami, the party city. Sandy beaches, palm trees, a plethora of great food and tropical cocktails, and one drug kingpin demigod straight out of Japanese mythology. I'm Chris Bateleur and I'm back in the middle of it all again, but this time in Florida. I'm starting to get a handle on my God given supernatural powers. Well, a little at least. Though, right out of the gate I stick my nose in the wrong place and get arrested. So, I've got that going for me. The upside is the tough DEA agent that arrested me is really cute, and a movie buff.

Miami, the party city. Sandy beaches, palm trees, a plethora of great food and tropical cocktails, and one drug kingpin demigod straight out of Japanese mythology. I'm Chris Bateleur and I'm back in the middle of it all again, but this time in Florida. I'm starting to get a handle on my God given supernatural powers. Well, a little at least. Though, right out of the gate I stick my nose in the wrong place and get arrested. So, I've got that going for me. The upside is the tough DEA agent that arrested me is really cute, and a movie buff. There's a funky new drug down here that is making people perform some really bizarre activities. Think bath salts with the added benefit of superpowers. Jelena, the Marine Sniper with a bad attitude I hired back in New York, has my back again. The rest of the Covenant of Bishops are new to me but I'm confident I can win them over. We are the typical team of supernaturally gifted heroes dedicated to defending the human race against the Tainted. The immortal scourge who have been the puppet masters of nearly every war and large-scale disaster since the beginning of time. No pressure. Can I defeat the Tainted's evil plans, win over the head of the Covenant, and capture the affections of my arresting federal agent? Yeah, honestly this could go either way. But it should be a fun ride.

Autorenporträt
W.J. Grupe Jr. grew up in the eighties, the decade that gave us some of the greatest movies and music of our time. If you don't agree, you should probably stop reading now. Born in 1970 he spent many a Saturday watching Looney Tunes, and the collective works of Hanna Barbera including Space Ghost, The Herculoids, Quickdraw McGraw and The Super Friends. Then in 1977 something magical happened, his parents bought an Atari 2600. The next several years video games were his obsession. He spent hours jumping pits, shooting aliens, eating power pellets, and slaying dragons. He became the best in every game. Well, not every game, his brother had Space Invaders, his brother-in-law had Circus Atari, he had everything else. Reading was not a favored pastime until middle school, when he discovered the works of David Eddings, and Ian Fleming. From there he moved onto Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman, Robert Jordan, and the list went on and on. Grupe graduated from St. John's University with a degree in Paralegal Studies. He started writing in college after a creative writing course. From then on you would never see him without a notebook. He wrote a combination of short stories and novels, none of which ever published. He met his soul mate in college, and they were married. Their daughter Kristina was born soon after and was followed by their Son Will. For the next few decades, he focused on his career in a consumer products manufacturer. Until one day at his niece's wedding he was inspired with the origin story of his first novel. Since then, the writing bug had him squarely in his clutches. His first novel Awakening was the first in the Tainted Wars series. A supernatural thriller, combining his two favorite genres. While he is focusing mostly on it, he is also working on a techno-thriller series as well.
