Mrs. Case and the boys exchanged looks between each other. Even without the spatial linking, they could read each other’s minds. This was not what they had expected at all. But then again, Beacon had asked to meet them in an extremely inaccessible place, so why had they not predicted something unusual to happen. In fact, the “unusual” was hardly strange to Rome and his team anymore. These days, everything they encountered or embarked upon was one hundred percent the opposite of “usual”.
It’s just a simple trip to New York. What could possibly happen to our loveable heroes THIS time? Faster-than-sound reptiles? Exploding Minotaurs? Generational secrets coming back to haunt them? Expect the unexpected in this third installment of The Talisman Series, “Windy City Ruins”. The war for Earth is creeping steadily closer, and Rome’s team is in a mad dash to figure out the Talismans before it’s too late. Can they amass enough talent to help them defend the realm? Or will The Tyrant King’s heinous underlings sweep them off course and leave Earth ready for the taking?
Excerpt
Rome could feel his stomach jumping around as the plane touched down at La Guardia airport in New York City. He was once again forced to travel by plane when he was totally capable of flying himself. On second thought, however, he had yet to enjoy a flight across the Atlantic Ocean, so perhaps it was best to travel in one of mankind’s silliest inventions.
Rome laughed to himself at the idea of humans being able to fly. It was a humorous concept, but also a rampant dream of the earthbound humans. Rome could see the wonder in Julian’s eyes when they flew together, and he knew that it was something humans would desire for as long as they existed on this planet. He also realized that if the boys didn’t get answers soon, that fragile existence might not be for much longer. The boys felt it in their bones; the war was coming.
Julian, true to character, had been in Rome’s ear the entire flight blabbing on about his Talisman, and how cool it was to slay a Nocturn. He talked ad nauseum about the durability of his armor and the abilities of his weaponry. Julian was Rome’s newly sworn brother-at-arms and the Synergist knight charged with completing Rome’s unfinished, dragon heart. Besides being an admirable warrior in his “knight mode”, he was also blunt, verbose, and kind of crude. Rome had grown to ignore, but also cherish this part of Julian’s personality. He was annoyingly endearing.
My memory of Elias is intimate but brief; I asked him, "what happened, where are you taking me, who are you? Tell me!"
In a calm voice; "Sara hush, you died.
