Experiencing Interruptions?

The Odyssey of Destiny

The world is cloaked in winter. Christian Adkins is a Renegade soldier longing for peace and the son of the famed Liberator. Jen is an orphaned nurse desperately trying to save children. When the two soul mates are trapped together at the end of World War III, their lives are forever entwined. As the sole survivor of his men, Christian surrenders himself to save Jen from the Fascists.

An international union has risen to power: the Continental10. Under the control of The Magistrate, the world unites for global peace. When Christian is tortured at the will of the Magistrate, Christian quickly realizes what he must do. Determined to find peace and protect Jen, Christian takes up his father’s legacy as the Liberator to ensure the survival of his people. However, he uncovers the horrific nature of humanity and realizes his preconceived notion of “good and evil” is not as it seems.
