About the Book

In the Dark Earth Saga, the reader finds that Earth is not alone in the universe when pertaining to living, intelligent inhabitants roaming its natural terrains. There is an infinite number of species abroad, some far less advanced and many far more advanced with intentions ranging from the gracious to the terrifying. Only the interstellar sanctions and restrictions set by awe-inspiring beings just short of godhood has kept the Earth safe; branding it as no more than a primordial locality to be observed from afar and remaining untouched. Essentially, it is a tourist attraction rarely even worthy of attention.

Among the precious few humans aware of the extra-terrestrial existence is a man named Mr. Hadean. He has mysteriously spent an unattainable amount of time involving himself in the system of the sanctions and bending them to acquire power for himself and his influential supporters...endangering the Earth itself in his endeavors.

Even as a favored operative of US security, Reginald Gates spends most of his adult life just positioning himself for the opportunity to thwart Hadean's fateful intentions. The tempted and prideful nature of man plays against the tainted champion at every turn.

At the pivotal moment, Gates must gather a team of operatives and agents diverse in their ethical manners whilst united in their loyalty to him. Facing the conceivably grave repercussions of treason, ignoring direct orders, being sanctioned by ranked officials and confronting Hadean with his unholy creations, they must turn back the wave of destruction foretold for Earth. Gates and his Spartan Trust must bite into the poisonous fruit of super-ability and compromising tactics themselves in hopes of saving all life on Earth not only from the extra-terrestrial imposers...but also from our own destructive hearts.


About the Author

Nate Albright is a working husband and father of two (so far) boys. Also, he is a college student well on his way to achieving a bachelor's in graphic design. The irony is that since childhood all his creations were illustrated freehand and he actually planned to construct an animated feature or at least a graphic novel, which are still on the table. Only through outlining did Nate discover his natural aptitude for writing and now has the opportunity to aspire and even be successful as a novelist.

"Whatever it is you have in your head, start writing it down. The sequencing, dramatizing and description will come as you research, get tutoring (if needed), and overall perfect your telling of the tale. You might surprise yourself. Then, an ingredient like the good people of Trafford can aid in your vision seeing the light of day...and who knows where you'll go from there. But you owe it to yourself to see it through to whatever success hopefully waits for you."
