WELCOME TO THE END OF THE DAWN!
A miraculous child, with the blood of two worlds, is kidnapped by an old enemy, determined to use her to gain favours from Pele, the Hawaiian Goddess of Fire. The quest to retrieve baby Lucinda and Georgina, her Chocolate Labrador puppy, will bring together heroes from The Planetary System of Luna Tribus, The White Corridor and Earth. A chase across the world from Caves Beach to Russia will trigger the end of the epoch as the formidable challenges serve as testing grounds for the future Oneidon, leader of The Compasse.
An extreme test of fortitude - this is TEMPTAS!
This is the third and final instalment of the 'DAWN OF TOBIAS' stories. Go back and read 'ERIPIO' and 'AENIGMA' to appreciate the significance of some of the events. Not read either of these? Don't worry, as TEMPTAS is a self-contained tale within the 'Geo the Space Explorer' magical realism universe. Settle in for some cozy comfort fantasy with teeth!
SERIES DESCRIPTION:
A mysterious network of corridors, situated between space and time, are the intersection between countless, starkly contrasting worlds; the battlegrounds where tenacious forces of light and darkness engage in an eternal struggle.
These are epic tales; of love, friendship, honour and valour, where Chocolate Labradors are never far from the action and adventures. Geo the Space Explorer and his canine counterparts, offer support and crucial insights in a universe that keeps getting bigger; where magic and the concept of an 'alien' is perpetually redefined. Follow key characters, families and dynasties, centre stage to brutal intergenerational conflicts, fight for what they hold dear as fundamental truths are unravelled.
Who created this construct? Who controls it?
From theme parks to mines, gaming arcades to motor racing, musical theatre to safaris, join your favourite heroes, villains and brown dogs. Allow the Australian authors to draw on their real-world extensive travels to every continent; immersing you in the wonders of our world and those of their imaginations.
The books reflect their personal quest to reconcile the wonder and horror of our species, seeking answers to serious questions regarding our origins, evolution and future. The simplistic, magical realism style, is a vehicle to tackle complex themes including love, happiness, identity, narcissistic families, psychopathy, religion, politics and war.
Laugh, cry, gasp, scream, air punch, question, escape, dream. See yourself. Find your tribe; your found family. It's all waiting...
