Description

HER DESTINY AWAITSIn Book 5 of the SOLSTICE SERIES, Julissa Grant, age 16, emerges from suspended animation decades after her launch from Telos, the Lemurian city within the hollows of Mount Shastina. Julissa, Aaron, and 23 other virgins were set adrift in their pods as Armageddon's Killshot was fired. Life on earth is all but decimated during Armageddon, but remnants of humankind survived by taking shelter underground and are slowly establishing a New World. Julissa, having been chosen the surface-equal, is carrying the child of her newly-wed husband, pure-blood Lemurian, Aaron Delmon. As prophesized by the Foretold, the child (HeIs) is to be the sire of future Lemurians, and Julissa's Holy-Grail blood will add critical DNA, strengthening the deteriorating genetics of the Lemurian race, which is about to go extinct. Only now - 75 years later - is Julissa's pod melting out from an ice cave.Julissa is rescued by Cherrie, once her best friend and an ignor-inferus (mixed blood) Lemurian, but who, chiseled by time, adverse conditions, and a sacrifice all will-to-survive, has switched loyalties to the Atlanteans. The Atlanteans, headed by their self-appointed queen Nani Doris and her Sons and Daughters of Belial, live in relative luxury in the city of Atlantis, while the Lemurians exist in squalor and prehistoric cave conditions. In an effort to prolong Lemurian extinction, Aaron - not able to find his wife - and those brides who survived give birth to flawed offspring, known as the Glass Clan. Nani Doris, aware of the Foretold's prophecy of a forthcoming ruler, orders the capture of all Lemurian males, any existing brides from the Old World, and the destruction of the Lemurian's food stores. The Atlanteans force the captive Lemurians to fight as gladiators for Atlantean entertainment.Julissa yearns for Aaron, who has sacrificed his freedom to protect his clan, but due to the labyrinth of lava tunnels, the way to Atlantis is impenetrable. Cherrie convinces Julissa that Telos's Ruby - which contains the record of all things - is key to cracking the Scroll. Julissa, having studied under the wizard, Jungo, has learned singlemindedness. She leads Cherrie and her henchmen through the Sticks of Stone cave, but not having perfected the art of vampirism, the ability to manipulate and transfer lifeforce energy, Julissa falters. She calls on Kriss'shon, Aaron's deceased mother, who impregnated Julissa's subconsciousness with her essence and now provides her with guidance.Cherrie and Julissa fail to find the ruby in the ruins of Telos, but Julissa's crystal syncs with the Ruby allowing the transference of the record, including, Julissa believes, the path through the maze and Scroll to Atlantis. Cherrie, having been elevated to the right hand of the queen, is fueled by jealousy. Cherrie, now known as Perseus, despises Julissa for being named the "surface-equal" of prophecy, as she had been groomed for the role, having been replaced once she became soiled by sex. Once back from Telos, Cherrie steals Julissa's crystal and abandons her in Jungo's cave as she and her servant followers head for Atlantis to deliver the crystal to Nani Doris.Julissa is on her own in a New World. Does she have what it takes to fulfill the prophecy of the Foretell? To save herself? Her baby? And the Lemurians?
