Produktbeschreibung

"And they had a king over them, who hath his name Apollyon..."

The American Alliance Army recruits scientists Dr. Steiner and his daughter Eva to build a superweapon to end the long war with the Russo-Chinese Coalition. The towering cyborg they create possesses the image of a dragon, the brain tissue of a once-living T-Rex, and the weaponry of an entire army.

Dubbed "Rex-1," the cyborg's mission is to destroy military targets in Moscow. Closely followed by its creators and military commanders and controlled by telepathic technology, Rex-1 wreaks havoc on the Russians, smiting them like a demonic god.

Then the unthinkable happens. Rex-1 goes berserk, defying all orders, and attacks the ship transporting the Americans.

Crashing behind enemy lines in the heart of Moscow, Dr. Steiner and his group are caught in the middle of Rex-1's rampage. Now with distrust and madness tearing his fellow survivors apart, Dr. Steiner has only one goal:

DESTROY REX-1!

Autorenporträt

Meet your resident author, world-builder, and available bachelor.

Nathan Marchand (you can call him "Nate") is a young aspiring writer from northeastern Indiana. Born June 29, 1983, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, he was homeschooled starting in first grade. He discovered his talent for writing in sixth grade English. He was given the assignment to write a "fanciful story," so he crafted one about his toys coming to life and fighting each other. He enjoyed it so much, he wrote many sequels (he still has them all...somewhere). He eventually expanded into writing other stories and genres. He has wanted to write science fiction since his dad introduced him to the original "Star Trek" at age three.

He attended Taylor University Fort Wayne from 2002-2006, earning a B.A. in professional writing. He was taught by Dr. Dennis E. Hensley (better known as "Sir" or "Sarge"), one of the premiere writing instructors in the country. While there, he wrote for The Express, the school newspaper, and Calliope, the literary magazine, and authored various freelance articles.

He worked as a reporter for the Bluffton News-Banner in Bluffton, Indiana, from 2007-2008. He now writes as the Narnia Examiner for www.examiner.com, and as a freelance writer.

Nathan believes Jesus Christ is "the way, the truth, and the life" (John 14:6). His stories, he hopes, communicate this at least implicitly.

His first novel, Pandora's Box, was published in 2010 by Absolute XPress.

His literary influences include C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert Heinlein, and Orson Scott Card. His favorite books are The Lord of the Rings, C.S. Lewis' Space Trilogy, The Chronicles of Narnia, Starship Troopers, and Ender's Game.

When not writing, he enjoys other creative endeavors like photography, acting, and amateur filmmaking. He has been described as "a man with a pen and the heart to back it up."
