Faerie Rift: An Urban Fantasy Novel (The Faerie Rift Chronicles, Book 1)

<h1><i>The ground shuddered beneath my feet... </i></h1><br /><br /><br />... The army was off in the distance still, but even as they approached, the planet marked their approach. <br /><br />Huge red ants, larger than most I had seen closer to the Capitol, all scurried into their holes. They were going underground, and I knew that if we were wise, we too would follow. <br /><br />It is only the petulant and the foolhardy who fight their wars on the surface in spite of so great a force. <br /><br />We were the <b>Fae Resistance</b>. Fighters who held close to their ideals, and even though we didn’t have a very good statistical chance of success, we were ready to both <b>kill</b> and <b>die for what we believed in</b>. The problem was that we could no longer continue to live as we had been living. We had reached a <b>breaking point</b>. There was nothing more to lose beyond the physical forms that we held, and even those were beginning to <b>wane</b>. <br /><br />The enemy had so much more than us in almost <b>every</b> regard. The only thing that we had an abundance of was <b>self-righteous pride</b>, and <b>determination</b>. It served us well, because when you think that you are in the right, and that your cause is just, you can draw on stores that previously hadn’t existed. <br /><br />The heat was unbearable, even from my position sequestered amongst the rocks. I was holed off to the side of the primary theater. The whole scenario was a <b>last stand attempt</b> to draw the troops out from the Capitol, and then <b>assassinate</b> their chain of command — starting with the leader of their army, <b>Lord Xan</b>. <br /><br />First, the shots came down over my position. It was all <b>Fae Magic</b>, which is what made this whole battle so sickening. A country should never have to sustain the hells of a civil war, but when the flames exploded in dangerous circumference around the incendiary projectiles, I wasn’t thinking about the cruelties of war any longer. <br /><br /><b>None of us were</b>. <br /><br />Just then, there was a tear in my vision and I was in another place altogether... <br /><br />-------------------------------------<br /><br /><h3><b>A fair warning:</b> this Urban Fantasy book is intended for <b>ADULT</b> readers only!
