Giants of the Mistress Moon - 2nd Book of the Splendor Series
This book will come to you signed by the author.
The travelers prevailed in fighting the Queen’s assassins led by the dark spirit-filled Silva on Splendor. Still, Silva was able to steal away five children to the Mistress Moon. The travelers quickly organize and journey onboard the AI-driven spaceship Lizzy to the Mistress Moon to rescue Splendor's kidnapped children.
Above Splendor, a heroic space battle between the Captains of the Queen’s Lance and the Queen’s Sword is fought. These two steam-driven iron ships conduct a dance of death, giving and taking until each ship and its crews are gravely stricken.
Spacers and Marines fight this great battle. They fought in their air suits hand to hand with no mercy given. Treachery and courage were found on both fighting ships as their crew’s battle for their Captains.
On the Mistress Moon, the travelers surprisingly find the home of the giants. They are the last of the Nephilim from Earth’s far past found in the Biblical Book of Genesis. The Nephilim were a race that came to dominate the antediluvian (pre-flood) world, whose descendants are referred to in the Bible as the heroes of old, men of renown.
The secrets of the giants are revealed to the travelers during their rescue mission on the Mistress Moon. The travelers pursue a bond with the giants, one based on mutual need. Together, the travelers and giants join to defeat Silva’s plans to bring ruin to humankind and giant alike.
I love life on Splendor! A little supernatural combined with evil force to take over the universe. Doesn't get much better. This is a great read for any one, whether you like Si-Fi or just a good story line with amazing, sometimes whimsical, sometimes totally diabolical characters. And some endowed with great wisdom. Enjoyed it immensely and looking forward to the sequel
The second book in the Splendor series, "Giants of the Mistress Moon", takes you through the compelling adventure of travelers from old earth, who now reside on Splendor, in their quest to rescue the children who were abducted by Silva for his use as the next generation of assassins.A continuing story of the thirst for power, where Giants, special gifts, self healing towers, unusual creatures and flying machines unlike anything the travelers have ever seen are used in the battle of good versus evil.Will Silva reach the children and return to earth with them so the transformation can begin or will the travelers rescue the children and return them to their families?I like that the book makes you think about things and look within yourself, or at least that is what I experienced.

I have always enjoyed reading and in my later years writing. The Splendor Series of books combines spirituality, science fiction and fantasy all in one.
The telling of stories containing realistic characters has always been my goal. We all make decisions in life that have consequences. So do my characters - having both good and bad results.
Set against the backdrop of the continuous battle of good and evil you will find the travelers seeking to save Splendor and its human settlers from ruin.
