WAR & MIR, Vol I: ASCENSION

Taharqa “Harq” Douglass assumes that his best friend Thagó is nothing more than a muckle-mouthed immigrant doctor from Sudan (or is it Somalia? or Yemen?). But when high-tech terrorists blast into Thagó’s office, Harq accidentally discovers his friend is half James Bond and half Bruce Lee, and that he himself possesses a miraculous ability: chronosis—the power to behold the future.


With Thagó as his protector, Harq must use his startling power to rescue a beautiful, brilliant diplomat in order to stop a war that could claim millions of lives… and the only path to survival lies through the doomed Soviet space station, Mir.

WAR & MIR, Vol II: THE DARKOLD

After the chaos in Naayt, Harq and Ti-Joto are forced into the dangers of Shr-Koioon, a savage land where the only laws are greed and violence. While fighting against cruel and vindictive new enemies, Harq and his young charge face new obstacles and new breakthroughs along their path to becoming chronostics. And while Kaiabreen gears up for a devastating war, Thagó and MarAset engage a secret mission that will tear the four of them away from Qorodis and into the terrors of the Darkold. If they succeed, they will transform civilisation itself. But if they fail… will they destroy it?

PRAISE FOR
WAR & MIR

Zig Zag Claybourne, author of The Brothers Jetstream: “War & Mir: Ascension is the thinking persons first person shooter, an immersive, interactive rocket launch of literature, adventure, humanity and philosophy. It is a master class on pacing, plot and enough unadulterated fun with a pen as to seem illegal.”

 

Steven Vogel: “A fantastic book, hands down my favorite Minister Faust book yet.”

 

Mara Tkachuk: “It takes the legendary disappointment of The Phantom Menace, with huge ideas but poor execution, dumbing a galaxy-spanning war, ancient prophecies, child slavery, and vast conspiracies into a childs film. Minister Faust takes these ideas down to their core and builds them up into this exciting, action-packed, funny, touching, deep, vastly huge and at the same time incredibly concentrated story about being plucked from your home and all youve known and thrown into a situation so bizarre and terrifying that it stuns you, knocks you flat on your ass.He takes this vast story and humanizes it, brings it focus with brilliantly written characters, characters so strange, terrible-wonderful, funny-crazy, human-interesting. Characters that act like real people (or aliens), characters that grow and evolve and become something different by the end of the first volume, characters so involving that you want to see how they come out through the whole story.
