The Last Line - Hammer and Spear Trilogy David Bacque

For almost a thousand years, the One Nation has been at peace, wiser for the mistakes of The Fortunate-the oppressive, power-mad faction of humanity who once claimed that the earth could sustain us all, supporting their abuses and greed without crumbling, forever. They were wrong and the price was paid.

In those perilous, long-ago days, the Lion of the Forson, born of The Lesser-those forced to serve The Fortunate in their selfish endeavours-drew upon deep powers to reshape the Earth, and the One Nation was created, on a foundation of freedom, responsibility, and a respect for the world and all living things. The Fortunate were trapped beneath the cold and ice of Heldig Fengsel, a prison that prophecy warns will fall once a thousand years have passed.

Now, with the release of the Fortunate fast approaching, the descendants of The Lesser anxiously await the return of the Lion and her Pride, which the prophecy says will occur when they are needed once more, as the last line of defence against forces of darkness that threaten to tip the world back into subjugation and destruction.
