PAWNS of WAR: The Human Destiny Volume Two

By MJ Duffy

PAWNS of WAR, Volume two in the HUMAN DESTINY series is a direct continuation of Volume one PROPHECY. (I highly recommend starting with book 1 The entire book takes place the day following the attack on Watchtower Labs Center of Bioengineering which was destroyed after former Senator Doli Grumbea intercepted a surveillance video of the Saphonite Guardian Dani in combat training.
Human Governor of planet Taputo had promised a great feast for those who had given so much to protect the citizens of Taputo and planned on spending the day preparing for this event, that is after deciding if the Humans were going to engage in the act of war to free the slave race of Nophens. Annidal asked the heroes in his care to handle some business for him while he prepared for the possibilities of war and prepared for this special event he had planned for all of them. Micha (Saphonite Guardian) and ZOE (A.I. human Interface for the Tess. O.S.) were asked to investigate the alleged survival of the Phersonite Shadow Dragon Xe-Ono and they recruited Spinicus the 24th King of the Pentrozia to assist them.
Annidal also asked his Chief of Security Jake Asben to take his son Aribis Tarrion, his girlfriend Isha Elmsby and the ten-year-old Nophen girl Allitanya of the Shiloh Clan to assist Dr. Bethany Amethish, lead scientist of Watchtower Labs Center of Bioengineering. It all seemed like the beginnings of a normal day all things considered... but this day would be far from normal. As the day progresses nothing was as it seemed and our heroes start to understand that they are part of something much bigger, part of events that began 300,000 years prior.
Meanwhile the Warship Thunder was headed to intercept the High Tide. The Human crew was told an elite fighting team would be with them. 8 Saphonite Guardians were on the Thunder and the Enlisted Taputions got their first look at the Saphonites.
Going back to those days, more specifically a year after the Nophens exile from Taputo on planet Satolla Agithica, son of Spinicus, Wisest of the Elders was summoned to meet with Shenshi, Queen of the Masadons, peaceful giants of the oceanic planet of Satolla. Shenshi had met Agithica and his father a year prior and had taken an entire year to think about what is was she needed from Agithica.
What happens next is shocking to say the least, something never before talked about, written about or depicted on the big screen (or little screen) and something you the reader will not soon forget!
Volume 2 highlights-
Zoe finds a message from Zoe 1.0 and is told to test 4 people by exposing them to four different paintings. She is told of a Supreme Race that Hated immortals and they planned on destroying the Endorea System. Zoe 1.0 has blueprints for a Saber and Shield, a Crown and a Hyper Cube with special powers but we have to wait until Volume 3 for the name of it.

Unlike Book One there are many fighting scenes in Pawns of War- go figure. There is
Micha, Spinicus and Zoe Vs Xe-Ono
Shim Si-Chimz Vs 4 High Tide Security
Micha vs. Gulla Glotten and Shim Si-Chimz
Annidal Tarrion Vs. Micha (briefly)

Sneak Peak for Volume Three Moment of Clarity
