<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes an excerpt from: The Mountain (pages 581-598).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>In the stunning conclusion to the Matchstick Man saga that began with Event and continued with Legacy, the End of Days is upon humanity---invasion has arrived!</b> <p/>Some speculate that the war between the two worlds began 700 million years ago, while others say it started in 1947 over a small town in New Mexico called Roswell. Regardless of dates, the war is now upon us, and after centuries of watching, the enemy attacked. The plans of a million years are finally ready for what we have always known was coming---Armageddon. <p/>As world allies fall to the wayside, a growing political faction from several nations sends a clear signal that cooperation between the superpowers and the lesser states cannot succeed. As nations start a mad scramble to realign their military structures, the war begins silently in the depths of the oceans, and flares to global brightness with the first military strike in history between two different worlds. Only one element in the arsenal of the world can possibly give Earth a fighting chance at survival---a small being that has already saved the world once in the Arizona desert is now called upon to outthink his former masters---the Matchstick Man. <p/>While Matchstick Man searches for the real motivation behind the invasion, the Event Group is the one entity that refuses to accept the inevitable defeat of humankind. They've learned that the answer to this war has always been here on earth buried deeply in our ancient past, and that they may even hold the clue to salvation inside their own artifact vault. But with the devastating loss of its military arm and one of their leaders, Colonel Jack Collins, the group is being torn apart by internal conflict and devastating personal decisions. Even worse, the group's old enemies have returned to take revenge, and the worst fears of Department 5656 are realized---a breach in security allows intruders to get at the secrets inside the complex in Nevada. <p/>Can the group come together to defeat their enemy and defend the planet? As the war wages on, countries fall, nations fight to the last man, and the fate of the planet depends on a few good men and women in this action-packed thrill ride from New York Times bestselling author David L. Golemon.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A unique spin on the Book of Exodus and the defeat of Pharaoh's army...The mix of legends and history has always been an asset to this series, and Golemon's imagination seems to know no bounds. Fans of the TV series <i>Warehouse 13 </i>or the action-adventure novels of Cussler and Rollins will lap this up." --<i>Booklist on Carpathian</i></p><p>"Explosive...tense, terrifying--and worth the investment." --<i>Associated Press on Ripper</i></p><p>"A tale worthy of the giants of the genre like Clive Cussler, James Rollins, and Matthew Reilly, <i>Legend</i> is a definite must-read for action and adventure fans. Don't miss it." --<i>Megalith.com on Legend</i></p><p>"The author...draws the reader in with an intriguing prologue...satisfying adventure." --<i>Publishers Weekly on Legend</i></p><p>"Golemon can write action sequences with the best of them, and he lands a solid uppercut with this book. The depth of science fiction...is surprising and ingenious." --<i>SFSignal.com on Legend</i></p><p>"Golemon combines his typical action-adventure fare with more thriller elements this time, and he focuses more on the personal stakes of his characters. ...Golemon knows how to make readers turn the pages, and <i>Primeval</i> will only further enhance his reputation." --<i>Booklist</i></p><p>"Fans of <i>Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea</i> will enjoy Golemon's recasting of the Jules Verne novel." --<i>Publishers Weekly on Leviathan</i></p><p>"Golemon's third novel in the Event Group series proves to be his best yet....a mix of the James Rollins action-heavy adventure, the military gadgetry of Tom Clancy, the pacing of the television series <i>24</i>, and the conspiracy theories devoured by fans of the radio show <i>Coast to Coast AM</i>." --<i>Booklist on Ancients</i></p><p>"The Roswell Incident--whether legend, fact, or some combination of both--has inspired countless novels and movies over the years, but David Lynn Golemon's <i>Event</i> peels back the layers of Roswell with refreshing originality. The action is spectacularly cinematic, the characters compelling, and the story is a flat-out adrenaline rush that pits real-world, cutting-edge military technology against a literally out-of-this-world threat. Even better, the Event Group itself is one of the best fictional agencies to arise in the literature of government conspiracies." --New York Times bestselling authors Judith & Garfield Reeves-Stevens on the Event Group Thrillers</p><p>"Fans of UFO fiction will find this a great read, and fans of military fiction won't be disappointed." --<i>SFsignal.com on Event</i></p><p>"Imagine mixing in a blender a Tom Clancy novel with the movie Predator and the television series <i>The X-Files</i>....readers who enjoy nonstop action and lots of flying bullets will enjoy Golemon's series." --<i>Library Journal on the Event Group Thrillers</i></p><p>"Golemon puts his military experience to good use in this promising [series]...evokes some of the early work of Preston and Child." --<i>Publishers Weekly on the Event Group Thrillers</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>David L. Golemon</b> grew up in Chino, California. He has raised three great children and now makes his home in New York. <i>Overlord </i>is the ninth novel in his Event Group series.</p>
