Twenty-five

governing entity known as The Syndicate.
Armed
with money and power, The Syndicate rules with an iron fist. Their
form of government has brought forth an era of humanity that has
surpassed every empire in human history, but behind that veil of
wealth is The Agency; an organization of Policemen who do anything
except protect and serve.
Against
incredible odds, Serus Blackwell, a Policeman within The Agency, is
determined to save humanity from a horrible truth discovered by his
sister Kara. In the crosshairs of The Syndicate, Serus fights to save
the only member of his family he has left–and in the process, might
end up saving himself.
After
arriving on planet Earth, Serus and Kara are taken prisoner by a
local group of soldiers. Knowing that The Syndicate will do anything
to stay in power, Serus forms an unlikely alliance in order to stop
The Syndicate from taking control of Earth and hope to find the
answers they need in order to save the people on Mars. But it may be
too late!

Drew
Avera is a U.S. Navy veteran and the bestselling author of the
Alorian Wars; a fast-paced space opera adventure series.
Born
and raised in rural Mississippi, Drew longed to see the world and
enlisted in the Navy at seventeen. With nearly twenty-years of
service, four combat deployments, and countless miles traveled on the
open ocean, it was only a matter of time before the worlds he created
in his head sprang to life in a new venture. He began his writing
career by participating in National Novel Writing Month 2012 and
published his first book, Exodus, in March 2013. Since then, Drew has
written more than twenty books. Additionally, he has had several
stories featured in The Future Chronicles, The Expanding Universe,
and the Pew! Pew! Anthologies.
When I turned thirty-years-old
something in me changed. It wasn’t a mid-life crisis, but a simple
form of self-exploration which resulted in me taking a barometer to
my past goals and seeing where they measured up. I was married,
check; had kids, check; owned a home, check. I even had a career that
allowed me to support them. But those weren’t the goals I held up
to the light. Instead, I focused on the aspirations that excited me
as a kid. The short list was to become a rock star, an astronaut, a
comic book artist, and a writer.
Now, I can get into all the ways the
first three weren’t going to work out, but what’s important is
goal number four. I was not a kid who enjoyed reading books, but my
dad said he would buy me every comic book on the shelf as long as I
read them. Needless to say, I owned a lot of comic books as a kid in
the nineties. What eventually sparked my longing to write a book,
though, was when I had saved some lunch money that I wanted to burn
on a new stack of comics, but there was nothing on the shelves I
didn’t already own. It was then that I decided to browse the
magazine and book racks and my eyes fell on something that caught my
eye. It was a book featuring a comic book character! “What Savage
Beast” by Peter David, is a novelization of the Incredible Hulk. I
contemplated the purchase, knowing that books were not my thing, but
my curiosity nudged me along and I bought it.
All said, I read it cover to cover
three times in about as many weeks.
Something changed in my perspective,
and it had a positive impact on the rest of my life. I was no longer
the kid who hated books, I was the kid who wanted to write a book.
Fast forward fourteen years and I
finally took the first steps towards making that happen. Exodus was
written for National Novel Writing Month 2012. It was my first book
and it began my career as a published author. I was bitten by the
writing bug, and have since published more than twenty books. I guess
I should thank the Hulk, huh?
A few facts about my first book,
Exodus:
- I wrote the first draft of Exodus on my iPhone 4S and it took me twenty-four days to complete NaNoWriMo.
- I watched Falling Skies at the time and pictured the actor Drew Roy as my protagonist. Other actors I envisioned as characters is Rachel Nichols from Continuum as Kera, Donald Sutherland as Pontiff White, and Bruce Willis as Gentry.
- Several people have mentioned Exodus being similar to Robocop and/or Total Recall. But the truth is, neither of those movies came to mind during the writing process. I my mind, The Matrix meets Blade Runner is what I was going for. At least all these movies are in the same genre lol.
