THE ORBORGON
Volume 2 of The Last Legacy Tetralogy
2047 AD. Earth is finished. Through the Hesikastor, elderly
leader of an esoteric sect based somewhere in Europe, come visions of a planet, Phrynis,
and an alien human race - and the offer of safe
harbor. The offer is followed by clips from the planet's past, beamed
through the Hesikastor's mind. Are the aliens
simply sharing this with potential
heirs? Or warning them not to trash a second shot at survival?
While the tales unfold, the race is on to get the means
to find and reach that distant Eden.
Book 1, The
Atheling, ended in chaos, viewed in 3D holographic stream through
the Hesikastor's mind. At the same time, all hell breaks loose on Earth. Manfred Hengst, a ruthless and
powerful magnate, takes control of any possible exodus to Phrynis.
Communication is interrupted, and when resumed, a thousand years has
elapsed.
In
The Orborgon, focus has shifted far from Gurnyac, ancient
seat of the Gnangar kings. King has become Emperor. Gar, Torc's brother, wreaked
havoc across the Known World, and his legacy of greed, cruelty and hate has continued down
the ages, bringing death and betrayal even in the highest places. At the peak of this Dark
Age, a woman is born in a bleak and remote far western settlement called the Fend. For years,
this scorder (healer), weaver, wise woman and scribe of that community, harbors a secret
which will bring about her execution should the Fendfolk find it out. And this they
do, at the onset of the winter that her grandchild is born and she is forced
to flee with it - and thus begins the story of
the orborgon.
