Defiance can be deadly. Almost as deadly as obedience. === Maximillian has defected. The god-king Nero has bled. And now, the High Vassal has stolen an AirGuard and sought shelter among Earth's last surviving military stronghold: The United Kingdom. But in an unthinkable twist, Colonel Thomas Drexler's son, Sage, has also switched sides, joining up with the youth organization Friends of Nero. What the Colonel doesn't know is that Sage desires to infiltrate Nero's inner circle and kill him, bringing vengeance and justice for all the Christians who have paid the ultimate price. Confident he is carrying out the will of God, Sage has placed himself on a dangerous quest in drawing nearer to the Emperor. Unbeknownst to any of them, however, Sage has company. He will need it...because The Test is coming. Will Christian brothers and sisters be able to accept Maximillian into their midst? Will he prove an asset to the Defiance...or a liability? As for Colonel Drexler: will he be able to successfully and publicly unmask Nero's lies and prove to the world, once and for all, who the Emperor really is? And as for Sage, he is in great danger. Will he emerge from the Friends of Nero training camp scarred for life, or will he succeed in killing the totalitarian ruler hellbent on exterminating Christians? Indeed, in a world of mandated obedience, defiance can be deadly. === Bestselling author Aaron Ryan of the Dissonance alien invasion saga presents the second installment in a captivating new Christian dystopian fiction series. The End: Omicron picks up right where The End: Alpha left off, and it will leave your heart pounding and take you on a thrill ride of epic proportions as you fight to survive along with The Defiance, and free the world of tyranny!
