Some twenty-five thousand years ago, a small group of survivors fled a world that had been destroyed by the heavy hand of the Cen invaders. Inexplicably changed by the virus that killed nearly everyone on their planet, these survivors fled to a far more primitive planet, one that would not attract Cen attention for eons to come.
A dispute broke out between them as to what their role should be in this brave new world. Some, most particularly the man mostly responsible for their escape, argued that they should try to blend in and let this faction of humanity evolve socially and politically in their own time. Others disagreed.
Some left the fold to become Gods. Others vanished into the population. Some even fled this Earth entirely.
Fast-forward 25,000 years...give or take a few. The Cen have found their refuge and only a handful of these immortals are willing to take on the challenge of fighting them again. Some fear failure, some are so caught up in their own lives that they can't be bothered. But it is Loki, the often impulsive, brilliant genetic scientist, who sets about changing the whole landscape of humanity to create allies in the coming war.
Only a few years later, the Earth that we know is changed completely. Not only has Loki created a couple different types of superhumans, he has restored the magical legacy stolen from us by the cunning Cen during the dark ages.
The battle begins.
In the course of the Infinity: Earth saga, we are introduced to vampires, lycanthropes, metahumans, parahumans, and mages--people who dedicate themselves to the preservation of everything about humanity worth preserving. Standing tall among these are the vampire Raven, the werewolf Ben Dalmas, the federal agent and mage Amanda Keening, and the fierce and powerful Jasmine Tashae.
The Cen War is coming, and with it the greatest change in the human condition since our ancestors climbed down out of the trees.
Fast-forward once again to the year 2260 or so. The War (the only war worthy of note anymore) is long over and despite the cost, victory is won. The old governments of Earth have collapsed, to be replaced by the powerful and enigmatic Confederation of Human Worlds. We're not alone in this universe, but the new human race born of the Cen War is quickly becoming a force with which to be reckoned. Great mageships ply the paths between the stars, defending Earth and its colonies from whatever threat may come.
In a small nightclub in San Francisco gathers a diverse group of paranormals and preternaturals. A family of sorts, but a family of heart and soul rather than of blood. In a world where the strange is commonplace, the Magitech Lounge is where things get even stranger.
A quick side-step into another realm entirely leads us to Starhaven, an artificial construct so large that it exists in its own universe. On Starhaven reside the Interworld Agencies--organizations dedicated to the protection of all sentient lives throughout the myriad of Earths. Except for the Cen, of course.
Full of fantasy, adventure, humor, and romance, the books of the Infinity Project will take the reader on a wild ride.
But you don't have to take MY word on it. Check out these reviews.
