The Gentleman With a Thousand Faces

Book excerpt: A Native American pilot is resurrected by a cosmic guardian to battle an invader, but it would take far more than super strength and cosmic armor to defend humanity against annihilation. This is a tale of justice, existence, and fall of empire. _____________________________________________ Haunted by the death of his father during a protest on tribal land, Native American pilot Mitch masks himself behind a clownish jokester façade. But when a disastrous flight leads him to Eqyrus, a cosmic guardian, Mitch is unwillingly drafted as the Blue Champion, humanity's last line of defense against an interdimensional invasion. At the forefront of this threat is Quyto, a shape-shifting entity bent on unleashing the Zin—cosmic beings intent on eradicating humanity. To stop them, Mitch must join forces with three unlikely allies: Bobby, a mute Brazilian zookeeper turned Orange Champion; Parka, the Red Champion who insists on hiding her true identity; and Farhan, a disillusioned Jordanian royal who bears the armor of the Green Champion. As Quyto spreads chaos and manipulates nations through countless disguises, Mitch is forced to confront his deepest fears—his fractured sense of justice, an unrequited love, and the very purpose of his existence. With the enemy closing in and sinister plots unfolding at every turn, can the Champions overcome their inner demons and unite to save humanity? Or will Quyto’s dark scheme condemn Earth to annihilation?
