The Shard Chronicles: Book One: the Naissance (Volume 1) Liam M. Taylor 第1 版

Our destruction is soon Our hero is now Pain. Fear. Suffering. Annihilation. Not just earthly attributes. Prepare. Something has found us. Brought to our planet a long time ago. By a human. A mild quake struck the exact moment Austin Cooper was born. When he was two years old an unidentified man saved his life, and he was five when the man guided him during his first use of a remarkable ability. At age seven, the man told Austin the talent he had was unique among anyone else in existence, and given to ensure his role as future protector of an ancient and powerful artifact. Later that day, the man departed Earth, taking the object he had possessed for centuries and leaving behind a world condemned to destruction by the brooding, alien malevolence it contained. Now, Austin matures with the understanding that no one else has the ability to manipulate time, to move through it at a different level, a different speed. No one else can simply disappear to a place far away, a parched, bleak, and inhospitable wasteland. The trouble is, neither should Austin. Without control of the artifact, he has achieved the supposedly impossible, and revealed himself to another realm, to others that require him, preferably alive, but dead would suffice. Things just aren?t getting any easier for Austin. There are the seemingly real and vivid dreams that have plagued him over the years, his ongoing struggle to keep the truth from his loving family, and the prospect of all-out war with a vengeful school bully, intent on destroying the only person able to defeat his cruel and callous deeds. Well... take a number and get in line. Half the Universe is already waiting.
