Ancora
I, Destin
Letters from the Emu War
The Boy who Slayed the Gargoyle
In the deadly land of Ancora, Zia fights to survive under the shadow of the hunters - ruthless enforcers of an alien invasion that claimed the world 300 years ago. Clutching her father’s journal, Zia uncovers forbidden stories of Destin, a legendary rebel who defied the invaders before vanishing, leaving behind a legacy of resistance.
Before Ancora, when Aliens ruled and humans saw them as saviours, one man saw through the lies.
Based on true events, Letters from the Emu War tells the story of the great Emu War of 1932 from the unique perspective of those who won.
Young William Lonergan spends his nights working the newly opened Box Tunnel to support his ailing mother, but when his head hits the pillow, he dreams of a faraway land called Ramallae.
After slaying a gargoyle named Gargwyn, William quickly learns that things aren’t always what they seem.
