Rise of the Chimera
In a world where man no longer reigns and evolution runs backwards... who will survive?
Commander Ryker is a fighter pilot, racked by guilt after he was set up by an assassin and led his squadron into a massacre. Targeted for death by the Assassin, he’s torn between his quest for revenge and the fact that everyone who gets close to him… ends up dead.
Pursued by the assassin, Ryker and a band of humans have fled Armageddon on Earth, but they were blown off course and crash landed on the rogue planet of Niburu. Desperate to survive, the castaways bioengineer a species of mutants called the Chimera to protect them, but once they taste blood, the Chimera cast off there chains of bondage. Ryker and the Assassin now find themselves on opposite sides of an alien war with only one thing standing between their revenge and annihilation; an unlikely alliance with the rebel Chimera.
Staring into the abyss of their own extinction, Commander Ryker and his Chimera allies are forced to discover their own essential truths; truths that will determine if they are destined to survive on the mysterious planet of Niburu… and in the Multiverse beyond.

Chapter 1: Hindenburg Has Landed
As the ePod glided silently across the desert plain surrounding the Genesis Five passenger module, Josiah and Lexis hunched over the rotating 3-D schematic images of Dr. Maurya’s atmospheric generator. Buried within the last image of the main control panel was the hidden design feature that would activate the Time Portal in order to save Dr. Samantha Jones—without alerting McCurdy. Dr. Maurya’s encrypted message played back over and over in Josiah’s head.
“I can accelerate the energy waves to create a temporary gateway in a fold in the space-time continuum, or as you may know it, a wormhole. Samantha is trapped inside that wormhole and only you can release her. Please hurry!”
