Produktbeschreibung

Beneath the Cape of Orionon planet Janaidarin a parallel universe, a dying Imperial dragon awakens from deep-time compelled to kill a dreaded NuliZhu slavemaster hiding in the Upper Hangar and Staging Area of The-Sleeping-City. Instead, he discovers a hapless human fully transformed into a cyborg by the artificial-sapience known as the WuShi. The stolen man's name is Elijah.

A gigantic flying-saucer hovers high above the early industrial riverfront of Bahndahn Towne. Jackal-headed aliens drop grenades of billowing green paralysis gas. All the people fallmany die outright. After over 5,000-years, the NuliZhu transgalactic slavers from the Empire of Ra are back!

Ensconced in the base of a city-sized dodecahedron, The-Creeping-Darkness aspect of the WuShi suddenly finds itself tangled in trillions of lines of ancient code blistering its hyper-processorsa kind of machine-madness. It fires a lucent beam of crackling light up through the core of the city to a precessing cuboid above the Central Obelisk to harden the faces of The-Sleeping-City into battle-mode. Power is short. It desperately needs its newly created power-master, for a lack of power is the only thing stopping it from enslaving the entire multiverse. It must also overcome the Guardian Dragons of Janaidarwhom it fears above all elsefor only they can destroy it.

In the town of Riverbend, false high priestess and usurper Yenara explores her evil powers in The-Baneful-Chaos. She coldly watches as her left hand rips the ka of the hostler's son free. His body quakes. Vaporous trails of life-elixir bear witness to the foul murder. Spasms of pleasure ripple through her belly as she imbibes the vital essence of the ill-fated lad.

Autorenporträt

As a submariner in the U.S. Navy, Robert literally lived and worked in the belly-of-the-beasta hot, strange, and extreme mechanical environment, which he elicits when writing science-fiction and techno-fantasy.

Later as an IBEW Inside Wireman, Robert worked in widely-varied heavy-industrial environments like: coal and soda-ash mines, coal-fired and nuclear-breeder powerhouses.

Attending the University of Colorado, he got a BSIS (Information Systems Analysis) and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Robert's Professional career included Certification as an Oracle Master Database Administrator, as well as an IBM/AIX Systems Administrator. He also held certification as a Project Management Institute - Project Management Professional (PMI/PMP). During the final years of his professional career, Robert became the Director of Information Services for the State of Colorado Sheriffs Association (CSOC). Throughout his professional career, he was also a technical writer and Microsoft Office 2010 Instructor for county staff all across Colorado.

Robert's latest work is The Stolen Man Trilogy, a sci-fi/fantasy adventure about telepathic techno-dragons and their magic, rogue and deadly artificial-intelligence (AI), and songspell singing sorceresses. Robert says, "I invite you to go along with me to an alternate universe of super-smart, telepathic dragons in control of ancient-alien artificial intelligence gone rogue."
