Publisher's summary
Dr. Maeve Leander and Captain Chris Garrigan are trusting Tilda Watson to keep Alvie, the triplets and their expanding circle of fugitives safe. Not that they have much choice.
With dangerous forces within the U.S. government chasing them down, their list of safe harbors is down to one: an island long thought to be only myth.
But this new hiding spot is not as secure as it seems. For a new threat has entered the field of battle, a threat not of this Earth. And in this new existence, allegiances are as deadly and changeable as quicksand under their feet.

Rounding up the escapees comes with more than a little risk. But Greg trusts the people around him, especially Mitch Haldron. At the D.E.A.D. Mitch has pulled him out of the fire more times than he can count. But everything is about to change: ...

Myths. Legends. Ancient lore. Primeval stories buried deep within the memories of the earliest civilizations of mankind. Even today, many cultures retain the distant longing for a lost paradise, tales of a worldwide flood, and legends of a tower of confusion. Yet too few of us ask if the legends are true. This is a story of the First Age, when dragons and giants freely roamed the earth and mankind lived for hundreds of years. Paradise was fresh in their memories and still sought by those who yearned for it. The earth was young, unmarred, and bountiful -- and ripe for subjugation by men, ...

Good story, fun ideas, good twists, but ... there are hiccups.
I tripped across this series and gave it a whirl. I very much enjoyed the story and concept. Virtual voice narration worked well despite the flattened delivery and occasional mispronounciation (but, hey, English is hard :-)
Unfortunately, the series needs editing, and more so as it progresses. It eventually became quite distracting :-(
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
