Book Description
(From Goodreads)
In a world where collective hives are enslaving the population and individuals have been hunted to the verge of extinction, Maggie Harper, and independent 21st Century woman, must find the strength to preserve the freedom of the future, but without the aid of her memories.
After experiencing a traumatic time loss, Maggie is plagued by a barrage of images she can't explain. When she's attacked by a creep with a spider's web tattoo, she is saved by Marcus, a man she's never met, but somehow remembers. He tells her that both he and her creepy attacker are from a future in which individuals are being murdered by collectives, and Marcus is part of the rebellion. The collectives have acquired time travel and they plan to enslave the human race throughout all of history. The flashes Maggie has been seeing are echoes of lost memories, and the information buried deep within them is instrumental in defeating the collective hives.
In order to preserve the individuality of mankind, Maggie must try to re-discover stolen memories, re-kindle friendships she has no recollection of, and wade through her feelings for the mysterious Marcus, all while dodging the tattooed assassins the collectives keep sending her way.
If Maggie can't fill the holes in her memory and find the answers to stop the collectives, the world both in her time and in all ages past and future will be doomed to enslavement in the grey, mediocre collectives. As the danger swirls around her and the collectives close in, Maggie realizes she must make a choice: stand out or fade away...*New Adult futuristic dystopian fantasy
Check Out This Book Excerpt
He stood perfectly still, staff in
hand, as dozens of Trepids rushed toward him. It was an army, coming toward him like a moving wall. The other cave-dwellers were taking
slow, tentative steps backward, toward the cave.
“Joan, what’s he…?”
Joan still held fast to Maggie’s wrist,
but she gave Maggie a reassuring look.
With the Trepids less than ten feet from
him, Marcus finally moved. He
hefted the staff in his left hand, tossing it up a few inches so he could get
ahold of it further down. Then he
took a knee while also slamming the staff into the ground. He timed it perfectly so that his knee
and the butt of the staff hit the ground at the same time.
The wave of energy that radiated out
from him was unlike anything Maggie had ever felt. She felt it in the ground below her. It came up through her shoes and into her
body, spiking her heart rate and making her skeleton vibrate against her
flesh. The very mountain quivered,
as if from a seismic aftershock.
Everything was moving in slow motion;
the power radiating from Marcus had caught and absorbed everything around
him. His warped bubble of energy
had trapped them all and, for only a heartbeat, connected them…
Then it was gone. Sudden vertigo made Maggie step
backward with one leg to catch herself.
It was like a dream where you feel like you’re falling until you kick
yourself awake. The instant her
foot hit the ground the dizziness was gone, and then there was only silence in
the cave and Joan holding Maggie’s hand, looking at her speculatively.
Maggie looked out to where the battle
had taken place. Her mouth dropped
open. All the Trepids who’d been coming—every
single one of them, and there must have been close to a hundred—had fallen to
the ground. The utter silence made
Maggie’s breathing sound loud, and she knew they were all dead. He’d killed them all.
