Factions

Ferocious factions battle each other on the edge of Serpentine's tangled jungles. Scenes of brutality and death explode on the savage planet where lasting peace looms on shaky ground. The Overseer and his wife, who once brought goodwill, are both missing in action. Through the power of mimicry, his grandchildren, the Transcendent twins, pose as the legendary couple to keep the fragile peace.
Their well-intended scheme is tested when a traveling family from Eda is attacked while seeking Serpentine's most sought-after treasure. The explosive event sparks a takeover of the transport sites on the planet by otherworld Protectors. In a flash, war breaks out between two races, threatening the lives of the people in a nearby village.
Running an Empire and maintaining a harmonious balance between people is more difficult than the Twins imagined. Their grandparents made the leadership task look so easy. But without supernatural intervention, the overwhelmed Twins could lose Serpentine to malicious factions.
Following on the heels of The Children of Enoch series by author D.C. Claymore, the next book continues the saga with The Kingdoms and Clans Series called Factions.
