Saint

By Ilya Kralinsky

A world torn by war, besieged by suffering, can feel like the only world in which we can exist. Marine Raymond Smith, a victim of terror and hurt all his life, returns home to be part of another crumbling empire: the Van Allen family, whose past injuries are leading them into the descent of self-destruction that even he cannot stop. Finding misery, suffering, and seeming meaninglessness all around him, Raymond embarks on the journey that will unlock his latent power a power that could free all the world from tyranny and to personal liberation.In disjointed space and time, Saint begins in a 1955 still embroiled in world war and moves to a land largely untouched by the horrors beyond, a small village in China, where Raymond later meets his mentor, Colonel John Bennett. Returned to the US, Raymond's talents are exploited by the long-suffering Van Allen family, who self-destructs in front of his eyes, while he is courted by mysterious and chilling Arthur Danton, whose humanitarian vision of a greater world seeks to achieve greatness too much like the Nazis. On a journey where he will be armed with the tools to defeat Danton, Raymond learns the nobler meanings of human suffering, why we are here, who we are, and what all things truly mean.A combination of adventure and enlightenment, Saint shows that we all set out to be greater souls, but that we must know our worlds to return to that track.
