The Death of Jabari

About the Book

A millennia past, on a world where magic and technology interact, a Sabotaged terra-forming project unleashed forces upon Ryung, which destroyed the planet’s surface. It’s happening again.

Jabari, whose body served as Ryung’s magical conduit for a thousand years, is dying. He and his machine counterpart reside on one of the moons. As he fails, so does his control over Ryung’s innate magic.

In this tale where men have become gods and the children of Ryung know little truth about their world’s creation, two stories unfold. Ryung’s past where a ruined terraform project brought unexpected results. Mutant races arose. The project scientists thought they found immortality. The scientists/gods create a prophecy to bring about a replacement for Jabari, hoping to restore Ryung before things go to far.

But a past traitor has other plans.

Elingor, child of power, is slated for Jabari’s destiny. Tulaan, a mutiger priest carrying the prophetic message, accompanies him; a beautiful buccaneer named Katja and a muavian they call Rocky. Together they discover the truth and make their way to the moon. One of them becomes the traitor’s pawn, another will die and the last will replace Jabari...if they arrive in time.
