GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions known. Thank you.

In Norse mythology, the Vikings reverently called me the Midgard Serpent that encircles the world - Jörmungandr; in Christian mythology, Christians contemptuously referred to me as the Ancient Dragon, the Ancient Serpent - Satan; in Greek mythology, the gods fearfully named me the Hundred-Headed Dragon - Typhon; in Kunlun mythology, the shamans fanatically called me the Torch Dragon - Zhu Jiuyin… Mayan mythology, Buddhist mythology, Slavic mythology, Celtic mythology, Nahuatl mythology, Japanese mythology, Assyrian mythology, Egyptian mythology, Finnish mythology… In numerous mythological tales, I traversed through them, known as a monster, yet only seeking the truth. … This is a story of an evil god.

This is the story of Adam, a werewolf in the world of "Werewolf: The Apocalypse," set in modern-day Los Angeles. Adam is an Albino Metis, a form of werewolf that is considered an abomination by most because they are born in their werewolf war form. Adam has another problem: he was raised in a lab, undergoing many experiments before having his first shift and being able to take human form. He was saved by a powerful sorceress named Faith. Faith raised Adam with two other adopted children, Adam’s adoptive sister Lucy, another sorcerer, and Adam’s adoptive brother Jessy, a boy with psychic powers. This is not a world were werewolves are underdogs, they are killing machines created by Mother earth, Gaia. They are in a desperate battle against the coming end, using all they have. They are shamans, tricksters, warriors, judges and storytellers amongst the shifting races. above all, they might be Gaia's hope or doom. Adam, in his war form, looks a lot like an albino Anubis, and in his wolf form, he looks like an Egyptian jackal. This form makes Faith and many others think that Adam is of the Silent Strider bloodline, a bloodline connected to Anubis, the Egyptian god. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A few notes. First, the story is set in modern-day Los Angeles. This is a World of Darkness version, so many places would be different. Any character that resembles people in real life is accidental; I do not plan on using characters from the real world. All characters are fictional. Adam is bisexual with a preference toward more feminine appearances. He is mostly confused as he is a little antisocial, but there is the possibility of relationships or hookups. Adam is the product of experiment so he might be a lot stronger than what a normal werewolf would be but still that isn’t much in the world of godlike monsters. As for the story, I am using world of darkness setting. This story will feature characters and rules from the world of darkness with a few changes but all rights are reserved for Paradox and white wolf. This story is for mature audiences and it will contain: violence, sexual content, drug use, cannibalism themes, and many other mature content. Please take care.
