least NO ONE HUMAN.
And they’ve taken her
unborn child.
Enter Phil, a rebel
freedom fighter who has had more than his share of Alien Vampires. Armed with
THE BLADES, a sacred alien martial art, he enters the compound on a mission to
find Sandy. But as he battles his way through the compound, Phil discovers
Sandy has her own agenda. Finding her stolen child is all that matters.
But the vampires have
their own plan and Sandy’s baby is at the heart of their diabolical plot.
Joined by a crew of rogue soldiers, they must navigate the underground
compound, battling genetically mutated humans, aliens and monsters.
When battling Alien
Vampires, one thing is certain…Get Ready To Bleed!
Fans of The Hunger
Games, George RR Martin, VE Schwab, Star Wars and Ancient Aliens will be
fascinated by this high-powered, intelligent, edge of your seat dystopian
sci-fi action thriller.

Excerpt:
“It’s in the blood, dear,” said Ellen, one of the women
Sandy shared time and space with, her skin worn by age, hard labor, and days
spent under the sun. Blotches, liver spots and creases led the observer to the
eyes. One dark, the other a cataract milky white and she always wore a dark
shawl draped over the head and shoulders. Sandy was afraid of Ellen, she
reminded Sandy of a gypsy or witch from a fairy-tale.
“Come again?” said Sandy, her eyes shifting from soldier to
Ellen to soldier then back to Ellen.
Ellen had cut herself transferring a wood bucket filled with
rice to add to an already large trough of buckets. A thick wood splinter pinned
in the bottom of her palm dripping with a thick stream of blood. She turned to
Sandy raising the bloodied palm and caught a drop of blood in her unwounded
hand.
“The blood dear,” said Ellen. “All magic comes from the
blood.”
Sandy cringed at the sight; she’d always been squeamish. Her
stomach bumped, blood curled. Magic, Sandy thought. If only magic was real. How
wonderful would that be? Sandy understood she was naïve, the result of an
isolated childhood and her parents’ death when she was ten years old. Not that
they had taught the young Sandy about the world she lived in either. They’d
kept her under lock and key, never so much as offering a glimpse or advice on
the outside world. They were always so cryptic with their explanations, living
in an abundant and overgrown mansion as if luxury were a childhood friend. Sure
there were plenty of rooms for a child to explore but as time went by those
rooms seemed more like a prison than a home.
Years of neglect, isolation and secrets were as torturous as
physical suffering. And she was tired of secrets. She wanted to know truth.
Truth was like a blanket that keeps you warm in the coldest winter.
“The blood, Sandy,” said Ellen who clenched her fist around
those crimson droplets, shaking her hand in front of her face. “All is in the
blood.”
