The Falcon's Nest Trilogy

Could you survive as a fugitive in a world where tyranny rules, not even knowing why they’re hunting you?


May, 2492


It’s been years since democracy died. America is no more, each state broken up into their own separate countries ruled mostly by cruelty and oppression. New York City is at the summit, having crushed those who opposed them, destroyed those who resisted.


Fifteen-year-old Talon lives alone in a sector known as Drudgen, just another place in what used to be The Bronx. He wants to keep it that way. Any family he’s ever had… it’s all led to grief… tragedy… torment. He can’t let it happen again.


But his reclusive life is shattered when the tyrannical governor of New York sends his most dangerous assassin to kill Talon for unknown reasons.


Just when all seems lost, he is rescued by two kids his age: Castor and Amber, who live on an aircraft dubbed The Independence. They explain that they believe the reason behind his attempted assassination might have ties to his lineage… that his parents could’ve been a part of something dangerous to the government… something bigger than themselves.


They set out to crack the clues, to discover what his parents were involved in, what they might have kept secret from Talon all along. But, when they finally solve the mystery, he knows they can’t stay silent. He knows they must continue what his parents started, even if it means death.


But… when Talon discovers newfound care for Castor and Amber… when he realizes he’s forming a bond… he understands he has to make a choice: risk losing them or overcome his fear of loss.

 

One year later, peace seems to prosper, but the consequences are worse than Talon ever imagined.


December, 2493


New York City is flourishing. With the government reformed and the class system demolished, the citizens are thriving. All seems well.


Talon Chambers has been living in Yahn with Castor and Amber, adjusting to the quiet life they’ve attained. He’s glad to leave behind everything that happened in New York, glad to start a new life, glad he can finally attempt to live up to all his father hoped for.


However, everything changes when Talon and Castor are attacked by a masked figure whose identity remains a terrifying mystery.


Talon ties the horrific incident back to their excursions in New York. Why else would it have happened? But, with the emergence of a hidden society and someone long thought dead, he realizes New York had nothing to do with the attack. Something much more sinister is festering in the shadows.


As suspicion of unrest within The Empire of Danyor begins to circulate, Talon realizes that he, Castor, and Amber are part of something bigger than they could’ve imagined. He just doesn’t know what it is.


But one thing is abundantly clear. He will have to confront their attacker; a faceless assassin known only as the Magistrate.
