The Avery Bishop Chronicles
Book One: The Renegade
Avery Bishop remembers almost nothing about his past. Unfortunately, everyone else seems to remember, who and more importantly, what he is.
Left to die on Earth with a strange girl named E seemed pretty bad, but that was before he was kidnapped to a refugee planet somewhere on the other side of the universe.
With the help of a pilot thief named Crow, Avery must survive long enough to find a new life, but both sides of a brewing civil war keep finding ways to hunt him down, for what...he's not sure.
Hiding won't last forever...even if he is over a thousand years old.
The only way forward may be to face the life he can't fully remember, but what good is remembering if all it does is bring the real monster into the light.
A New Sci-Fantasy Novel Series
The Avery Bishop Chronicles explores identity, loyalty, and survival in a war torn world of steam, science, and magic. The story follows Avery Bishop as he uncovers fragments of his past, struggles to control strange new abilities, and becomes entangled in the civil war forming on the refugee planet of Kromore. Set for a multi-book series, this is the first book in Avery's adventures.
