Death should have been the end. Instead, it was just the beginning. Special Forces Major Javin Cox remembers the searing flash as he detonated the nuke strapped to his back-a desperate last stand against the alien "Toads" who had laid waste to Earth's cities. He expected oblivion. What he got was a one-way ticket to a jungle world where everything wants to kill him. Naked. Alone. No weapons, no memory, and a very hungry lizard-beast eyeing him for dinner. But that's not the weird part. The weird part is that everyone here knows him. There are statues of his face in town squares. Ancient prophecies written about him. They call him "Mulda' fi"-the Promised One destined to save their world. Just one small problem: he's never been here before in his life. Or has he? Armed with nothing but inexplicable knowledge of advanced science, fluency in a language he's never studied, and a mysterious marble that might be far more than it seems, Javin must unravel the truth of his identity. Because somewhere out there, a powerful being wearing his face is wielding unimaginable powers. And the supposed "Guardians" of this reality are too busy with their own crisis to help. The only way to get answers about who-and what-he really is? Save this world. Whether he wants to or not. --- Where Stargate SG-1 meets The Wheel of Time, PROMISED ONES launches an explosive five-book saga of military sci-fi and epic fantasy.
