Storm In The North
Book #1 of The Future Burns Bright
The long-awaited sequel (first volume of four) to the exciting "Angel Brings Fire" series of superhero / modern fantasy novels, has arrived!
After desperate, life-or-death battles on the remote Alaskan island of Amchitka, the tables are turned on the imposter-President of the unstable, misgoverned United States of the 2040s, as the newly-rescued, superhuman Sam Jacobson and Minnie Chu teams depart on conflicted quests to reform America.
Both teams aim to save the country from the Storied Watcher - Karein-Mayreij - who has abundant reason to carry through with threats to "lay this kingdom in ruins, from end to end".
Chu wants to reason with the U.S. government; Jacobson just wants to beat sense into it; but America's cruel, corrupt leader isn't in much of a mood to listen, to anybody.
Chances are... that will turn out badly for him.
