Reliquary by Kris Brooker
A theocratic Commission rules. Patron rules absolute. The people believe they are protected by Saints, and that their city alone survived Armageddon.
When a Duma crime-boss tasks Scout to track down a stolen Relic, what he omits to mention is the Commission want it too, and they’ll kill anyone who stands in their way.
Find the thief, find the relic. Find a heretic, Kat, who’s as dangerous as she is beautiful. Scout puts them both in the crosshairs of a state sanctioned assassin. Their survival now depends on finding the relic.
It’s an uneasy alliance, through a black market in forbidden history into an underworld of religious sects, to find they’ve stumbled upon an ancient prophecy, and into a heretical coup.
All sides desire the relic. Understanding it’s purpose will reshape the future of Mankind.
Intelligent and profound. If only all beginnings, middlings, and ENDings were so good. A book worth a second read ????
Dystopian paranormal romp. Worth a few hrs of your life. note.. If all angels were like Wyatt the bible would be a more interestig read
OMG!
Controversial and entertaining
Couldn’t stop turnin the pages
A must read for all who believe the end of the world is nigh. From Armegeddon in Rome, to redemption in the city of Oasis (maybe)
This novel is anchored in the past but set in the future. Full of drama, intrigues, and escapism. Rock solid heroine..
