The Orianus Creation Series: Book Two
(Cover from the former physical version of the novel.)
Summary on back cover of the former physical novel:
In the Orianus Star System, there are races beyond the knowledge of most Kaeldonians.  These other races inhabit planets of their own and are further advanced.  
One of these races was thought to be extinct for nearly a millennium -- until now!  The Ptahmen, or Dark gods, are rising again.  Heroes of Kaeldon will find
themselves joining with some of the other races in an attempt to stop the Ptahmen, but how can they defeat a foe who reigned over these same races long ago?  How
can they challenge a foe that still has superior technology?  The Christian believers will seek a way against all odds, but will the others listen to them?  Or will the
Orianus Star System become the new Ptahmen Empire?
Adobe Reader (.pdf) excerpt
of Chapter One and the
Historical Background will be
placed here in the future. It
will contain spoilers for BSR.
Please read Black Storm Rising before
reading this book.  The back of the
physical book two contains a Glossary
and Biographies section to act as a
refresher of book one's characters and
terms.  There are four entries where I
accidentally refer to Lord Daroth and
it should say Tumult.  I don't know
how these slipped past me! These will
be fixed in the official pdf version.
These are the entries:

dragon, black
Guards of the Dominus Bobba
Church
Tangor Strike Missile or TSM
Tank Louaeoo, Ground Leader
