The Father Unbound
by Frank Kennedy and Frank Kennedy
A boy rises, and an empire stands on the brink in this generational saga of love, revenge, and the sins of the father.
They come from the sky in red battle armor. Peacekeepers. Chancellors. The ruling caste of humanity for three millennia. Seven-year-old Trayem Hadeed, like so many of his clan, reveres the Chancellors, who long ago led humanity to a great colonization of the galaxy. Yet when a mysterious Chancellor named Ephraim Hollander inflicts a great cruelty upon the boy, the resulting hatred buries itself deep within Hadeed's soul. As Hadeed nears manhood and dreams of how to end his people's servitude, Ephraim prepares not only for the end of his powerful, 3000-year-old bloodline, but possibly for the end of humanity itself. Devastating decisions made thousands of years ago now cast a horrifying burden upon the final fathers and sons of the most valued and reviled planet ever colonized.
This epic tale sets the stage for the action-packed The Impossible Future series. Visit Frank Kennedy's Amazon author page to learn more. (5 stars): "I've been trying to place Unbound within my years of sci-fi enjoyment, and the author that most comes to mind, and of course this is ... Isaac Asimov!
