Synopsis

Book 9 in the Area 51 series.Donnchadh and Gwalcmai were birthed on a far-flung planet in the Milky Way—a human breeding colony with the purpose of churning out disposable foot soldiers. But the masters of the colony, the Airlia, created humans with one fatal flaw: an insatiable thirst for freedom.Though Donnchadh and Gwalcmai become God-killers in the bloody revolt against their seemingly omnipotent creators and captors, their planet is already doomed. So when they discover the Airlia have enslaved a human colony known as Atlantis, the pair of freedom fighters journey light-years to spare Earth from sharing their planet’s fate.Armed with superintelligent weapons and technology that the primitive earthlings could never foresee or understand, Donnchadh and Gwalcmai engage in a stealth battle spanning millennia and continents, from the land of the pharaohs to ancient Rome to the realm of King Arthur. They watch over each other as comrades and lovers, waiting for the moment when Earth can become the final battleground for human freedom.

Goodreads review by Steve on April 27, 2018

Books 8 and 9 = TOTALLY UNNECESSARY OMG — I am SOOOOOO glad this Series has finally ended; Books #8 and #9 were simply collateral damage and unnecessary efforts. This Series started out well, and the first few books were a good tale and amusing SciFi stories. After THAT, they started to go downhill, a......more

Goodreads review by Benjamin on November 26, 2014

Technically, this is the 9th and final novel in the Area 51 series. I say “technically” because the actual series ended with the 7th book while numbers 8 and 9 are more like separate but supporting novels for the larger series. This one really amounts to a victory lap for the whole series. Given that......more

Goodreads review by Gary on March 31, 2009

I thought the concept behind the story was great - two different alien races fighting it out on planet earth w/o humans knowing about it. The plot ties in the city of Atlantis, King Arthur and the Knight of the Round Table, Merlin, etc. I haven't read a science fiction story in a while, so it was a......more

Goodreads review by Kellyanne on May 11, 2013

I really enjoyed this book. Being the 9Th in the Area 51 series, it tied up loose ends. It takes you through the lives of the central characters Donnchadh and Gwalcmai from the beginning from them leaving the own planet and arriving on Earth.......more
