+++Pax Dominion Journeyman+++ +++Welcome to the "About" section+++ ABOUT
The 'Novels' section of Dominion Central Though Revolution is given as the first title in this series of novels, it is actually composed of three stories prequeling and filling-in around Revelation and Reconciliation, which form the core of this Magnum Opus.
Below is a working synopsis for each of the three works:
Lost Days: Revolution
Book 1: The Viral Revolution.
The revolution is coming, but does anyone realise?
A young Bekon Vosk, assumes the identity that will dictate the destiny of Humanity, and welds together an alliance of disparate souls with which to bring about his goal: To prevent the total collapse of modern civilisation.
But at what price?
The murder of innocents? The betrayal of his allies? The risk of possible destruction at the hands of Humanity's greatest achievement?
Yes...
Book 2: The Australasian War.
America's patience has finally worn thin; an economic pariah on the verge of social collapse, shunned by the brave, new world forged by the apostate Vosk and his blasphemous hegemony "the Dominion", the time has come to make a stand...
But does America have the moral right, or the military might to take on the Great Enemy, and how will the Dominion react to open war? Especially when its first casuality is the one being in all creation that Vosk prizes above all others...
Book 3: The War of Ascendance
What was it like to flee the Dominion, at its very birth and abandon all that you held dear, in the hopes of preserving its continuation?
Walk the streets of America as it falls into ruin, travel the gradual descent into Christian Fundamentalism, feel the despair at the loss of the Australasian War, and witness the final, desperate days of the United States of America, culminating in the bloody Siege of Washington: Last stand of the Free world...
The Dominion will prevail and woe to the vanquished!
Lost Days: Revelation The year is 2034; from the bustling governmental metropolis that is London, to the antipodean paradise of Australia, across the spans of Europe and the exotic climes of the Middle & Far East, the Dominion's rule is law:
Law created by the Dominion Security Council, dispensed by the Advocates, and protected by the Journeymen - Journeymen such as the de Fleurie twins; orphaned prodigies of the Religious Countermeasures Department.
But threats abound in this supposedly utopian era; the State is beset inside and out. From across the vast distances of the Atlantic ocean the United States and its Senate-Synod plot the demise of the Dominion's founder, Bekon Vosk, whilst within the Dominion's own borders his citizens seek to deify him through the so-called, Book of Lost Days.
But is this situation all that it seems? Is Religion not a tool for Government?
From the soul-destroying beauty of Etherside, to the Deco-Noir splendour of Cologne's nightlife, encompassing initiation into truth, machiavellian betrayal, and startling revelation, follow the Journeymen Marcus and Nichol de Fleurie, on a quest whose secrets hold the very key to their existence...
Lost Days: Reconciliation
Bekon Vosk is dead.
But this has not prevented him being reborn in Angelic form, 'liberating' America in bloody warfare and consolidating the Dominion as the sole power on the Earth: Welcome to the Post-Ascendance Era & the Neo-Renaissance.
Across the globe the Pantheon of Wards governs humanity in peaceful benevolence, its Tribunes administering to every province, every region, and every country - Winged facets of the Angelic watchers, formerly known as AI, who protect the entire globe.
The year is 2066 and peace reigns supreme. Except in the apartment of Conner Fane, whose bloodied carcass heralds the descent of Journeymen James de Fleurie into a forgotten past. It's a past his father, the illustrious Marcus de Fleurie joint head of the Journeymen's department America, has spent half a lifetime trying to shield him from.
But does James really need this on top of all the other questions he already has to contend with? Why was he exiled to London away from his Father? What reason does his aunt Nichol de Fleurie have to despise his mother Miranda? Are the Wards all that they purport to be? What is the importance of a dead statistician anyway? And most importantly; will his partner in Corporate-Violence, Rachel Stephens, ever return his wistful longing?
In a race across the landscapes of the new, tainted by the passage of the old, James must face the predilections of his time and ancestry, in a search that can lead to only one thing: A final summons into the presence of the Dominion's chief architect, the Godling Bekon Vosk... |
