Death of a Hero

By: Kris Cooper

Virgil Carverson was appointed almost two years early to a full apprenticeship under the horqinum and graduated from the Cardinal Education System. He's traveling through space to a once-in-a-lifetime event that will expand the Vruqing Empire. Respect, education, love, thrills, culture, and a general hatred of software: Virgil has it all. The boy taken from Earth during the Civil War has lived in a futuristic and slavery-free society for years. While visiting a planet within the empire, Virgil is taken captive by a neighboring country and forced into hard labor. Having the opportunity to be rescued, he chooses instead to assist one of the only men capable of defying the spread of evil. Join Virgil on another universe-bending adventure that will test his moral fortitude, adaptability, and sanity. Will his time on another planet be another peak moment or will meeting an alien culture mark the end of everything he values? How much of his life can he hold on to after death pays a visit?
