His pursuers aren’t inclined to sit down and talk, although that’s not the end of Elei’s troubles. The two powerful parasites inhabiting his body, at a balance until now, choose this moment to bring him down, leaving Elei with no choice but to trust in people he hardly knows. It won’t be long before he realizes he must find out this deadly secret — a secret that might change the fate of his world and everything he has ever known — or die trying.

In
a world where parasites create new human races, Elei leads a peaceful life —
until a mysterious attack on his boss sends him fleeing with a bullet in his
side. Pursued for a secret he does not possess and with the fleet at his heels,
he has but one thought: to stay alive.

My
Review:
Rex
Rising is about Elei who was infected with two parasites when he was a little
boy. He grew up with these two parasites fighting each other inside of him each
wanting to control the other. Elei is a very lucky person to have survived the
parasites inside of him because to most they are deadly. After the rough life
that he has lived Elei finally got him a break. He got a job driving an aircar.
Elei was happy with his new job and his boss for a while until one day his boss
is killed and after witnessing her death Elei flees the scene with a bullet in
his side, running for his life. Whoever killed his boss is now chasing after
Elei. They want something from Elei that he knows nothing about. He has no clue
what it is they want.
About
the Author:
Greek
Cypriot with a penchant for dark myths and good food. I have proven my tendency
to settle down anywhere but at home by having lived and studied in France,
England, Germany and Costa Rica, before returning to Cyprus two years ago.
I like to write about fantastical creatures, crazy adventures, and family
bonds. I live in Cyprus with my husband and my vast herds of books. I write
fantasy and science fiction, and my short stories can be found in Alienskin
magazine, Lorelei Signal, the Shine Journal, Encounters Magazine, and Bards and
Sages ezine i.a. I am also an author of MuseItUp Publishing, and my YA Urban
Fantasy novella Dioscuri - retelling of the classic Greek myth of the same name
- has been now released.
I am currently working on a few novels, including a vampire novel set in
Cyprus, an epic fantasy trilogy, and a YA science fiction series.
