What would you do if you knew you were going to die soon? Lukan is a novelette about exactly that. The story sets the stage for the "Sovereign Spirit Saga" by explaining how and why the apocalypse was unleashed upon the world. This first person account will take you inside a sick mind, whisking you around the world and back again, leaving you breathless and afraid of everyone you meet. Invisible death is stalking the world and Lukan is its name.
Author's Note: LUKAN is also part of the newly released "Interludes in Hell" collection of Sovereign Spirit Prequels. You may prefer to buy the collection, unless you are grabbing LUKAN for free. All of the Sovereign Spirit Saga prequels can be read independently, before or after reading the full saga. The first book, "Voyage of the Dead," is often free too and the best price on the first three books is "Sovereign Spirit Saga: Volume One." Welcome Aboard and Bon Voyage!
"David Forsyth, through Lukan's confession, reveals with growing intensity what caused the Zombie Apocalypse of his Sovereign Spirit Saga... Lukan painted with precise brushes showing the reader his descent into hell, both a metaphorical one and—ultimately—a real one for the rest of the world. Modern Charon, he delivers death with a breath. He is the Alpha of the apocalypse, and his voyage marks the Omega for humanity. I could see the world through Lukan's eyes, feel his hatred mixed with guilt, and Forsyth well handles a complex character who faces at every second, and with every gesture, the choice between life and death, and this last one is destined to win. Readers of this prequel will have no doubts that they will embark on a journey of the dead that will reward their fantasy and lust for zombies. Read this, it will be your ticket to the Sovereign Spirit."

Selected reviews for the Sovereign Spirit Saga:
“…Without a doubt one of the better Zombie books… The plot and storyline lends itself easily to being a long and enjoyable series." -- Anthony Wessel, reviewer at The Kindle Book Review and founder of DigitalBookToday.com
"What a truly entertaining read. I started reading on Friday morning and couldn't put the book down until I finished. Not just your everyday, run-of-the-mill, ho-hum story of the apocalypse." -- Paul Jones, author of "Extinction Point" and "Towards Yesterday"
"David Forsyth's Sovereign Spirit Saga is truly amazing. I'm an avid post-apoc / zombie reader and just fell in love with his style of writing, characters and story. No one will be disappointed in this trilogy, this is a must for any zombie apoc reader."
G Michael Hopf, author of "The End" and "The Long Road."
"This is one of those books that starts with a bang and I read waiting for the pace to slacken, except it doesn't. Too often, books of this kind start out with an action scene, and then we get chapters of backfill and descriptions of the soap opera-like travails of our characters. While Forsyth indeed fills in the characterizations, the key quality of this book is that most valuable in any kind of thriller--PACING." John S. Walsh, author of "Love Has a Taste"
“The Walking Dead meets Battlestar Gallactica! This novel has all the ingredients for an epic series of books and would be great for television too. It's like a Star Trek of the Zombie Apocalypse...†Tom McWilliams
