Acknowledgment:
This is a work of fiction. All of the characters, organizations, and events portrayed in this novel are products of the author’s ridiculously vivid imagination and has very little to do with reality.
The Series:
In a world crumbling under the weight of humanity’s excess, a teenager watches helplessly as his family is torn apart – until a mysterious woman arrives, transforming them into mythological beings. Revealed as avatars of the Earth Mother Gaea, battling her corrupted uncle Ehneh who seeks to unmake reality, the teen finds himself reborn as a powerful unicorn warrior tasked with sealing the cosmic rifts releasing Ehneh’s Blighted monstrosities. Joining Gaea’s elite Prime Defenders, he must help purge the land of this virulent force of decay – or all of existence will be overwritten into oblivion.

About the Wordsmith: TaM D’Lyte

When I was seven, I was bored. That happened a lot when I was a kid since I’m an only child! I whined to my dad, “I’m bored!” His response, with a magnanimous wave of a hand, “There’s a bookcase. Go get a book.” So, I grabbed the biggest, brightest book there (a college biology book) and began from the beginning. It took a long time, a looong time to finish that book. Never one to do anything by halves, I wanted to be an actress, a vet and an astronaut–simultaneously, of course–but decided to be a horse trainer instead. (Really? A horse trainer? Yes, what of it?) No, I’m not a horse whisperer. A horse doesn’t care what you whisper at it. A horse wants apples, carrots and cookies. Especially cookies. Just like people. I’m also not a cowgirl (cows scare me!) and I don’t race my horses. Sigh… I’ve heard it all a million times! LOL Anyways, my mom was a reader, books tucked everywhere around my childhood home, and my dad was a writer, little half-finished stories under the coffee table and between the cushions. I’ve acquired both habits on a grander scale (remember, nothing by halves? LOL) and have boxes of books above your head filling up a whole room and my computer hard drive filled up with bits and bytes of half-finished stories. It’s a disease, I kid you not!
