Description

I was thirteen years old when I originally thought of the story, and have written and rewritten it more times than I can count. But six years ago, I met my wife a Filipina from Manila, and there I discovered the wonderful and gracious people of the Philippines. After realizing I would have children of mixed racial birth. I decided I wanted to give them a hero to look up to from their own culture. I then re-did all nine books; this time the racial, religious and cultural differences gave the book a more defined nature, one of which I was proud. I had given up long ago on trying to get an agent or a publisher to take interest in my book, but that was never my goal. My goal was to give my children a hero of their own heritage, and to inspire them. Win or lose, they win. The Year is 2079 and the earth has recently been discovered by a ruthless alien race known as the T-Challa. Their plan is to enslave the population and to strip the earth of all its resources to maintain and expand their vast empire. However the earth is not without hope, another alien race called the X'ena's have sent a symbiotic probe to earth to help defend her from the T-Challa. The Probe which takes the name Paladin merges with a human named Caleb Ocoda as well as an ancient battleship from a century ago and transforms both into a force to protect the earth. Caleb then man's his ship with the best the earth has to offer as they go out and defend the earth successfully defeating the small fleet sent by the T-Challa. Unfortunately the ship suffers damage and it affects Caleb wounding him, it is quickly discovered that Caleb is dying and with him the mighty ship named Paladin, the only defense of earth. After searching all possible answers to save himself and protect the earth, Caleb decides to find the X'ena to see if they can cure him before his death, but time is short and the single ship must travel through the heart of the T-Challa Empire to find the X'ena and save Caleb. Will they succeed?
