Blood of Invidia
10,000 years ago an alien race known as Invidians waged war and conquered worlds across the galaxy. But their ultimate goal was eternal life.
And The Invidians did find eternal life, but vanished shortly after. That is, until lethal aliens are captured on social media fighting in the streets of New York. Blood of Invidia follows three friends who find themselves involved with a mysterious stranger. They learn that humanity may no longer be at the top of the food chain as the Invidians appear to have reappeared with a vengeance.
Blood of Invidia was written by Tom Tinney and his son Morgen Batten, but what makes their collaboration unique is they have never met. Circumstances kept Tom and Morgen from ever meeting in 32 years and when the idea for the book came about, they had to use other methods to communicate ideas. With Morgen in Australia and Tom in Wisconsin they used Dropbox, Skype, and other technology to exchange thoughts and ideas often days apart due to time differences.
Through all those hardships, however, Blood of Invidia was created. So: pre-order your copy today.
