Advent of the Roar

by Benjamin M Piety

Overview

The Last War nearly annihilated all of humanity. In its wake, the survivors divided the Land into 133 individual states. Under this separation, each has thrived in peace for nearly two millennia. Living in the quiet highlands of Radiba, Bernard Babek never thought he'd sail across the sea. Or come face to face with a fearsome, shapeshifting protnuk. But after tragedy strikes, he makes the bittersweet decision to see the Land for himself. Along the way, he partners with newfound friends in a race to find the lost fragments of a fabled, dangerous machine. "Advent of the Roar" is the first in a series of fantasy adventure tales chronicling an unlikely hero's exploration of a long-divided world filled with dangerous adversaries, ferocious monsters, and a conspiracy greater than he could ever imagine.

About the Author

A failed magician since eighth grade, Ben instead graduated with a film degree from the University of Central Florida. In 2006, he moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue a career in filmmaking and over the next few years, his short film work was exhibited in film festivals worldwide, including the 2008 Sundance Film Festival and winning a 2007 Special Jury Prize for experimental short at SXSW in Austin, Texas.

But these creative acts came to a standstill on February 28th, 2008 after testing positive for HIV and sending him into a regressive and inward journey.

On the ten year anniversary of this news, February 28th, 2018, his life changed again when he published his first novel, "Advent of the Roar." A fantasy adventure as part of a larger series of books entitled "The Land Old, Untouched" forming a curious question about what the next decade will bring.
