The Mythology of Meriden: The Heir of the Rings: Book 1
In 1998 Chinese armies conquered the state of Connecticut. Resistence was carried on by scattered outlaws hiding in the woods, among them a boy named the Rockrunner who seemed to have superpowers. Government superheros disobeyed Clinton's orders of nonengagement and helped to oust the "pirates" as they code-named themselves. Rockrunner has married now, and has children. And those children inherit his Elven blood, and the weirder blood of other natures that runs within it. He found in a cave an ancient manuscript, containing tales of a civilization in prehistoric Meriden, and of a mysterious fay-race named the Gardun-Houldu. Treating these as myths, he reads them to his children. Robin, the youngest, pries into his father's dangerous past. A half-brother in hiding, a fellow outlaw of his father who he knew far too well, a concealed sin, and a hidden horror, all surface at his probing. It is too late now. The strange blood his father bequeathed, suddenly awakes. All his children grow superpowers.And superhero, or mutant, activity is punishable by law these days.Robin flees to his half-brother Charles, who has gathered other supers in the woods upon Lamentation Mountain, and formed the Sea Riders. But his evil siblings have formed their own band of supervillains, the Dark Riders. And in the depths, ancient powers begin to stir, and the terrible inheritence bequeathed to Robin searches for an heir to infuse....to bring forth the Eldarendar.
