Molt Brother

Arshel Holtethor is a kren working at the Cross-Species Archaeological Society’s dig. This dig is about to uncover the most important discovery of all time, box so precious that it cannot be opened until the translations of documents pertaining to the City of a Million Legends are complete. This artifact might even be the key to uncovering the true location of the City of a Million Legends, known by many other names including Camelot, Shangri-la, and Atlantis and might have been the real place of the First Lifewave occupation of the galaxy.

Molt Brothers gives the readers a taste of an earth-like world where various species of aliens live in some semblance of harmony. This book has a really interesting premise and has a lot of really good character development including some really detailed and well thought out aspects of the different cultures that are interwoven into the story to add more realism to the various species and cross-species relationships. I look forward to the second book of this series to see how the adventure progresses and how the various cultural details fit into the ongoing story.

 City of a Million Legends

Jacqueline Lichtenberg Wildside Press ISBN: Science Fiction
Reviewed by Tami Brady

City of a Million Legends is the second book of the First Lifewave Series. In the first book of this series, Molt Brothers, a group of scientists was in the process of translating documents pertaining to the City of a Million Legends. Their hope was that they would find instructions that would lead them to the potential location of the First Lifewave occupation, a place know in legends as Camelot, Shangri-la, and Atlantis. However, when the translations were complete, these same scientists were in for the surprise of their lives. Evidentially, the City of a Million Legends wasn’t the peaceful location that they had thought it to be.

City of a Million Legends begins immediately where the first book ends, with the alarming translation. In this second adventure, the main characters are seeking a special object, the mazeheart object. An artifact from the City of a Million Legends hidden by the Last Persuader that needs to be destroyed for the sake of the world.

Please note that as the second book continues directly after the action of the first book it is important that the reader read the first title in this series to fully understand what is going on and the relationships between the various characters.
