Thy Kingdom Fall
| Austin Dragon
| Thy Kingdom Fall is the provocative, debut thriller of author A. Dragon—a dramatic mix of politics, religion, and intrigue set over 75 years in the future. In 2089, a former skin-runner-turned-star-reporter investigates the Washington DC daylight murder of the most powerful political king-maker in the nation. It is just the tip of a wider conspiracy and the start of a chain of events leading to the explosion of World War III. It is the first in the epic After Eden series.
It is the morning of September 11, 2125. The New York City police commissioner stands on the 170th floor of the Three Towers, clutching his chest in shock. The sky goes dark, filled with dozens of them—the opening attack of World War III. Not merely the planet’s third global war, but the first one of the Tek Age— a hell we have never seen before.
How did we get to this place?
The world is a very different place: Western Europe has fallen to the Islamic Caliphate, Israel is gone, Eastern Europe has merged with Russia and Beijing runs the anti-American Chinese-Indian Alliance.
America is very different too. The US Constitution has been found unconstitutional and replaced, presidential term limits are gone, and the culture wars are over. The three-term American president is obsessed with keeping the nation safe at all costs—by ending religiosity. But the Resistance stands in his way.
This dramatic series blends politics, religion, and science fiction. It is part-political thriller, part-religious fiction, part-action adventure, part-techno-thriller. The intriguing (or scary) aspect of the book is that it truly feels like you’ve been transported forward in time. What will the politics be? Will we still be fighting terrorism? Who will our enemies be? What will the culture be like? What will be the state of religion (atheism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc.)? What new religions will there be (Vampires, Vulcans, Jedis, etc.)? What will the technology be like? What threats and conflicts will we be facing - and fighting.
Thy Kingdom Fall is Book One of the epic After Eden Series.
