Colony - Atlantean

Their World Is About To End The last remnants of a once great society live in massive caverns far beneath the surface of their tortured world. For hundreds of years, they have been imprisoned by black rock and dirt, condemned to an artificial world maintained by their vast technology, never to feel true sunlight upon their skin. But now the last of the water is drying up. Soon the planet will wither and die. They must leave their home or perish with it. Uranus, Lord Father of the People, saved them from the annihilation that consumed the surface world and brought them to the cave of the One Tree. Over a thousand years old, he has led his people with an open heart and gentle hand. But buried deep in his aged mind lies knowledge long forgotten that could preserve his kind...or condemn them to a slow, agonizing death. Cronus, beloved eldest son of Uranus, Ruler of the Table of Twelve, must set aside his peaceful nature to take on a mysterious, powerful golden enemy, bent on the destruction of the People. But when he finds the true nature of his adversary, will he still be able to protect his race or will he crumble before an excruciating mental and physical onslaught? Thus begins the chronicles of the People...the race that gave rise to Earth's First Civilization. Colony is more than mere science fiction. It is historical science fiction...perfectly documented in archeology, geology, religion, mythology, and history. The only questions are, "Will it happen again?" and "Is it already beginning?" Will you believe?


About the Author
About The Author International author, Gene Stiles, a Michigan native, moved to Simi Valley, CA in 1963. His first publication was at age eleven when the Los Angles Daily News (then the Valley News and Green Sheet) and the L.A. Times both wrote articles on a young poet selling his work to buy a Mother's Day present. His interests include mythology, world religions, archeology, geology, paleontology, lost civilizations, science fiction and the 2012 phenomenon which are the basis for his Colony Series of novels, Colony - Atlantean, Colony - Neander and Colony - Bloodkin. Growing up an outcast in his family, he lived much of the story in his first novel To Walk the Winding Road - A Story Of Abuse And Survival. At age seventeen, he started a three-state wide non-profit organization called Teens, Inc in the hopes of helping other troubled teens like himself. As an adult, he continued his devotion to kids by opening teen-oriented businesses including two arcades and three teen nightclubs - which are the sources for his book Phenomenon - The Xenon West Story. He is also a martial artist and major karaoke junkie. He lives in Missouri on the land he and his late wife, Dianne, cleared together and in the house the two built alone and with their own two hands. She promoted him, believed in him and without whose inspiration none of his books would ever have been printed.
