About the Book

Tracks of the Dark Wing: Ashley’s Journey Book 1 A nuclear war destroyed their civilization, but some life on the surface survived, however some survived by going underground to wait for the radiation to dissipate so that the surface could be reclaimed. For the surviving life on the surface, life changed beyond imagination. Prowler’s an animalistic group of survivor’s who preyed on the weaker groups, took what they wanted, and if someone tried to stop them then they were dealt with harshly. After the radiation dissipated, the surviving humans on the surface started to have children again, and at that time; it was noticed that life was evolving differently. As these children grew; paired, and had their own offspring then it became apparent that new, races were emerging such as Light Elves, Gnome’s and Ogres. The same thing happened in the animal world; new animal species such as Dragon’s, Laradon’s, Unicorn’s, Winged Horse’s, and Running Wolves now populated the surface world. Life spans had changed they were longer; some of the humans that had been on the surface when the nuclear war started were still alive after 150 years. However, only the ones that went underground, and had lived closer to the surface had the ability to live somewhat longer, and they had an added ability as well. A bloody war broke out after the underground surviving humans returned to the surface. A race of Dark Elves wanted to control all; they created creatures from different DNA samples, and dark magic to help them with this task; one of these species of creature is called Dark Wing. However, in the beginning the Dark Wing was not good for any race including their creators. Female children were being taken from human, and Light Elf villages, but for what reason, and why only female.It would take another 150 years for a special little girl to be born; little did anyone know what her life would mean to the world. She was taken from her bed one night, and then other female children started to disappear as well, is the same thing starting to happen now as it did 150 years ago. As a Chosen One, she will have a hard road to travel before she can try to save the world from possible destruction. It is a long and dangerous journey, which destiny; has set before her. There are other unknown Chosen Ones, and they will be reviled as Ashley’s Journey evolves. The Chosen Ones will have to find their destinies in the one, and that journey will not be an easy one. Light, and Dark Magic as well as dangerous creatures of which they have never seen before abound in this new world. Will the curse of Legend be broken by these Chosen One’s; or will the world be lost to the dark forces forever?
