Description
Tancredi Gilmor is one of the Law Scholars at the Tribunal of Ahthaza, the capital planet of the subjugated Kritas race. When the Tribunal adopts tougher measures against the mounting turmoils, and the marines tighten their grip on the population, violence escalates. During a social unrest involving young Kritas, Tancredi is confronted with the brutality of the space marines' oppression; his steadfast loyalty to The Law falters and puts his role within the Tribunal at risk. Tancredi's behavior intrigues Mekte, a young female Kritas who sees in him the hope for a change. As a member of the Kritas insurgence, Mekte risks her freedom and her life to get in touch with Tancredi, believing that together they can and must change the world. Mekte succeeds and contacts Tancredi in secret; she shows him the 'reality' of Kritas' conditions: An unknown Underworld is revealed. Tancredi and Mekte's worlds clash, everything opposes them, as a particle and its anti-particle, but when they collide powerful things happen. They fall in love, against all odds, and their passion will disrupt the foundations of the credo of their respective people. "The Law" is about the reasons of the heart versus the diktats of the brain. The struggle between what you *feel* you must do, and what you *must* do because of how you feel. "The Law" covers the themes of "Law and Order", racial tensions, repression for security, and love between two young members of different races who believe they can change the world. It is my fourth novel as I've Author-published a science fiction trilogy with the first volume released late 2012 and the third and last volume in May 2014. The trilogy had been picked up for republication by "BookTrope Publishing, LCC". The Law will appeal YA and NA readers, but themes and characters will also intrigue a more mature audience.
