A Distant Boom: Book Three in the C-3 Saga

By Adrian Essigmann

C-3 is in its worse spot yet. A horde of dark creatures have besieged the base C-3 is in and they are determined to enslave every human within. Inside the base's walls C-3 is not trusted by the Alliance and they have to endure an armed "escort" at all times. As if this isn't bad enough, everyone's favorite unbalanced C, Mop, is becoming increasingly hostile to Alliance security and secretive. What the Cs don't know is that the dark has targeted Jack Pascel for a horrifying fate and that the dark's pawn is in the walls with them. In fact the dark is doing everything it can to make sure reinforcements do not come in time to ensure the bases capture. In book one C-3 rose to the challenge of repulsing a dark strike team and in book 2 they were hunted by a small army, but now they must help the defenders of the base against an ocean of darkness backed by a dragon. All seems lost, but is it? Despite all the darks machinations they may have made a grave miscalculation. Will C-3 survive long enough to learn what mistake the dark has made?On the Southern edge of the North American continent there is a forward base of Storm Kingdom, that might be the key to turning back the dark war machine. The dark is aware of this and has made it a priority target. Huge dark Krakens pound the base's shield while a horde of dark infantry waits for the order to attack. The dark has left nothing to chance. Civilians have been herded to the base to suck up precious resources, a dark agent has been placed within, and a lot of damage was done in the first few hours of fighting putting the bases odds of holding out low. Far away dark agents in Storm Kingdom delay relief setting the base up to fall. There's only one factor the dark didn't see coming...C-3 is within the walls. Gleefully the dark tries to use this to their advantage attempting to create unrest in the walls over C-3. They even ensure that the mind of Jack Pascel will be destroyed at Alliance hands hoping to further divide the LIGHT in the future. Everything seems to be going smoothly for them until a one man army named Risk Xie starts a war in Camdon. The dark begins to worry...what if Jack Pascel survives? What if in their confidence of victory they have handed the LIGHT the very weapon it needs to defeat them? Jack Pascel must die! Can C-3 endure the darks machinations AND keep their friend alive? On top of all this Mop's sanity hangs by a thread and Six is told a horrible truth about his parents and the Alliance. The odds are slim to none, as C-3 enters their biggest challenge to date.
