Paul G Mann
- The
- 3rd
- and
- Last
- book
- in
- the
- Newth
- Series.Re-edited
- 2023.
- Story
- remains
- the
- saame,
- only
- polished
- and
- a
- lot
- of
- dross
- taken
- out.Henry
- has
- been
- lulled
- in
- to
- a
- false
- sense
- of
- security;
- since
- the
- skirmish
- on
- the
- Island
- continent,
- nothing
- of
- note
- had
- been
- seen
- or
- heard
- from
- the
- Hunki.
- Unknown
- to
- him
- they
- have
- built
- their
- forces
- for
- a
- dual
- strike
- against
- Earth
- and
- Newth;
- driven
- by
- their
- hive
- masters,
- the
- forces
- they
- commanded
- had
- only
- one
- objective;
- destroy
- humanity,
- eradicate
- it
- from
- the
- galaxy.Outnumbered
- some
- sixty
- to
- one,
- Henry
- sets
- out
- on
- a
- quest
- to
- find
- other
- life
- forms;
- he
- needs
- help
- from
- someone
- or
- something
- with
- better
- technology,
- technology
- that
- would
- help
- him
- defeat
- the
- vastly
- superior
- forces
- of
- the
- Hunki.
- What
- he
- finds
- is
- a
- hotbed
- of
- deceit
- and
- worlds
- populated
- by
- people
- living
- in
- conditions
- that
- turn
- his
- stomach.
- He
- sees
- atrocities
- that
- sicken
- him
- but
- strengthens
- his
- resolve
- to
- take
- on
- the
- Hunki
- and
- crush
- the
- life
- out
- of
- them.
- The
- Hunki
- were
- coming
- but
- before
- they
- could
- be
- engaged
- Henry
- had
- to
- see
- through
- the
- lies
- of
- the
- Worath
- and
- determine
- what
- part
- they
- played
- in
- the
- Hunki
- war.
- Outwardly
- friendly
- and
- accommodating,
- were
- they
- working
- with
- him
- or
- against
- him?
Behind
- the
- Hunki
- was
- the
- hive;
- billions
- of
- telepathic
- beings
- linked
- with
- a
- single
- mind,
- a
- single
- purpose;
- destroy
- and
- conquer
- all
- in
- their
- path.
- It
- was
- all
- they
- knew,
- it
- was
- all
- they
- had
- done.
- The
- Milky
- Way
- galaxy
- shone
- like
- a
- beacon
- in
- their
- skies,
- billions
- of
- life
- forms
- to
- feed
- on,
- millions
- of
- worlds
- to
- restock
- their
- quickly
- dwindling
- resources.
- Their
- way
- to
- victory
- was
- through
- the
- Hunki;
- once
- mankind
- was
- eliminated
- they
- would
- turn
- their
- attention
- to
- their
- ancient
- foe,
- the
- Pathosian.
Was
- Henry
- the
- Pathosian
- objective?
- Was
- he
- the
- one
- predicted
- by
- the
- Pathosian
- ancients?
- Did
- his
- Pathosian
- blood
- give
- him
- the
- power
- and
- the
- ability
- to
- defeat
- the
- hive?
- Or
- would
- thousands
- of
- years
- planning
- lie
- in
- ruins
- as
- the
- Hive
- took
- control
- of
- all
- life
- in
- the
- Galaxy?
- A
- vast
- armada
- spread
- over
- two
- light
- years;
- billions
- of
- Huricanas
- minds
- and
- bodies
- came
- slowly
- towards
- the
- Galaxy
- of
- Earth
- and
- Newth.
- The
- hive
- was
- coming,
- would
- Henry
- and
- his
- forces
- be
- able
- to
- take
- them
- on
- and
- stop
- them?
Time
- would
- tell,
- time
- that
- the
- Milky
- Way
- was
- quickly
- running
- out of.
