Young Joash was a slave until the champion Herrek freed him from bondage. Now he trains as a chariot runner, dreaming of glory in Elon’s host. But ancient evil stirs. The Nephilim—sons of fallen angels—have found primeval weapons capable of slaying Heavenly beings. They plan to storm Eden, eat from the Tree of Life and rule as gods. First, they need expendable humans to trip the deadly traps that guard Paradise. When Herrek’s band falls under a Nephilim spell, Joash must find the courage he never knew he had. Like the mouse that freed the netted lion, this former slave will have to save his newfound family from a hideous fate—or watch them become pawns in a war between Heaven and Earth. GIANTS launches the Lost Civilizations Series, chronicling the war between Nephilim and men in the days before the oceans overran the Pre-Cataclysmic World.
This book is part of the Lost Civilization Books series and is book #1 in the series.
