David: Savakerrva, Book 1 A boy from Detroit who may not be just a boy from Detroit. "Haunted by hiss and spinning toward gloom, the river-that-wasn't about to swallow him in, Garth knew he would die. Yet it wasn't the unknown he feared, it was the sense, deep in the web of his first-winter's mind, he'd been left once before. Stars starting to fade, the light in his eyes going absolute black, Garth vanished into the River Afar." College, prison, Uber, Southwest - there's a thousand ways to leave Detroit. Garth Smith found one more. Average in most things and indifferent to the rest, this boy of fourteen lived in a Group Home on the edge of East Detroit. Bleak, the landscape, yet bleaker still his life. Abandoned as an infant and raised by the state, Garth saw the future through the pane of his past, an outlook as dull as the primer-gray Buicks and gutted foreclosures, every bankrupted brick. So he never saw it coming, that late October night. Yet if their starry arrival shocked, if the appearance of the Zahlen Ice warrior and owl-eyed G'mach overwhelmed, Garth went numb at their tale, at the inconceivable creation soon to annihilate their world, and then, several more. But then it all unraveled, then the tale just collapsed. For by out-world legend? Only someone from the Line of Kings could save them, some ancient Promise foretold. And that, by the evidence, just might be - . A trans-galactic odyssey, "David: Savakerrva, Book 1" launches to a world at its end, a madness of Clans and Tribes and rolling-thunder Machines. And while X-blades spark and gunships blaze, a greater battle rages within, the fight of a boy to simply believe.  Will you?… (meer)

What happens when a fourteen year old orphan from Detroit finds out he's the son of an alien king?! Adventure of the highest order; a space odyssey for all ages! "David: Savakerrva" takes readers on a journey through space; exploring rich new frontiers and fantastic species and cultures.

Disbelief, anger, annoyance, and righteous indignation flow through David when he learns the life changing truth about his past and his future. How can he help save a planet when he's used to being bullied, he can barely stand up for himself let alone a bunch of aliens! Against his wishes he's taken from Earth and given only the barest of explanations on what he's expected to do. David knows that the prophecy has foretold his coming and that without his help, his father's home planet will be destroyed. No small feat, considering he was just chilling out in his room reading comic books days before, it's not like he's been training his whole life for this. David must look inward to see if he's even an inkling of the man that these strange aliens think he is. The classic battle of good versus evil will play out on the pages and readers will enjoy every minute of the ride. Brimming with exhilarating sights and sounds, witty banter, impossible tests, malicious bad guys, and an occasionally whiny teenager; this science fiction novel is an excellent start to what I hope is a nice long series.
