Slave of the Legion

The Mission

The Mound rises up against the skyline, an imposing, brooding presence, dark and silent. It appears to be completely deserted. A layer of brilliant white snow dusts the top of the massive circular structure, glittering in the sunlight.  Vents on the roof spew faint plumes of smoke that drift off slowly in a light breeze.

I know we're going to die – all of us. But it's all right. We had seen the O's crucified victims, up on metal stakes, on our way to the Mound. It was almost as if they were pointing the way, raising their wasted arms, opening their filmy eyes, shrieking silent screams. My brothers and sisters, silently urging us on – to the Mound.

I'm not afraid of death any more. All I want is revenge.

Slave of the Legion is the third book of a six part series that follows trooper Thinker's adventures in the service of the people of ConFree. Other titles in the series include Soldier of the Legion, The Black March, Secret of the Legion, Cross of the Legion and Curse of the Legion.
