Description

<p>Countless years ago, measured in thousands, the Gods came first. Monstrous creations were born of their frivolity. Like the Gods, some of the creations were peaceful, others not. Their duty to preserve the earth completed once more, however, the day came that the Gods had to leave earth. Unleashed and with loose regulation, the abominable creations left behind multiplied. In their midst, another conception came to be, and his kind would exist absolutely outside of the God’s purview.<br />Unmated, alone, and untrusting of others, Chatran was charged to go to a place and protect the father of a great child, yet unborn. This duty, however, was unknown to the most cognizant part of Chatran. Only the Beast, who resided within him, knew. As a result, the Beast led Chatran to Walhalla, North Dakota. Although his initial charge was to protect the father he found there, Chatran also gained a mate and Pack. With them, Chatran also found a new way forward, and started on a course that would lead to – New Alpha Rising: Ascension.</p>

Written with confidence, keen literary sensibilities, but an accesible and easy to read style. This is one of those books that once you start reading you will find it very hard to stop. From the powerful opening to the satisfying conclusion I found myself turning pages at a rate of knots. There's depth to the story too that left me thinking afterwards. The world of Loisada is complex, there are no heroes and few things are black and white. <br /><br />Thoroughly recommended to all lovers of good modern writing.
