I love Science fiction and fantasy. Unlike any other genre, Sci-fi and fantasy explore the human condition—good and evil—right and wrong—to provoke thought by giving one an avenue to analyze something new in a light other than what he's been immersed in all his life. Between these pages is a place to boldly consider new ideas, in a safe-to-do-so environment.
Ignacio Dais, High Consul and leader of the Coalition of planets thrusts his government into civil war. Is he evil, or has he done this simply because he's moved by—reacting to—a situation in which he's ill-equiped to handle? We see men do evil things, but do they do such things because to be evil is their desire, or are they standing on false premises? It's a tough call. Not everything can be taken at face value.
Captain Neil Avery feels things have gotten way out of hand, but what can he do when he himself has sworn allegiance to Consul Dais, and the Coalition? Things come to a head when Neil has to attack and destroy a cruise ship. Neil knows innocent civilians are on board the slow-moving, unarmed vessel, but Intel says she also carries a contaminant. With no time to explore options, what will Neil do?
A surprising turn of events changes his life forever, pitting him against old allies to side with those he hates.
There is a richness to mankind, a spark of something inside him, that lends itself to all the wonder of the universe. Come explore an exciting new world where surprise clashes with the familiar, deception challenges loyalty, and mystery evades discovery. Flood your senses with a world that challenges your own perception of reality. In all this,the book series At the Rumble of War does not disappoint.
At the Rumble of War gives us heroes who, in spite of their flaws, press through overwhelming odds toward likely defeat. Victory seldom comes easy, or cheap, but true heroes throw themselves into the frey anyway.
These are dangerous times for everyone, whether good or evil, but the issue of who wins is never a settled matter. Your heart may break as good men die, or worse, give-in to their baser nature. But your heart will also soar to new heights when good triumphs even in the smallest of ways.
The characters in this series, each very different, are rich with their own internal struggles. If this was a movie you'd find yourself at times screaming at the screen in frustration, or jumping to your feet with grateful exuberance.
"I hate sci-fi," said Pastor Bob Muncy, "but after I started reading the first book in the At the Rumble of War book series, "Neil Before God", I couldn't put it down. Plain and simple, just a great story from beginning to end. I recommend it to people of all ages, especially to those who have children that enjoy Science fiction."
 | Neil before God; the first book in the "At the Rumble of War" series begins with Life among the stars in the year 2235. Captain Neil Avery, a Starfighter pilot of the Coalition of Planets, had climbed quickly through the ranks. Trogs are everywhere. Killing them used to be easy. But every time Neil does his job, a little more of himself dies. Can one man bring sanity to a universe where nothing is simple, especially when reason and matters of the heart collide? Not alone, he can't. Capt. Avery, a mysterious spaceship, and a one-time enemy Troglodyte set out on a journey of discovery, intrigue, and the hope of a new life.
