Book Two of the Keltian Trilogy continues with the five survivors who met in Book One. They have gained extraordinary abilities bestowed on them by a friendly Keltian alien. They soon encounter unexpected challenges with a new member to their group, or an adult who wants to assume control. They discover this comes with mixed blessings, adding additional threats while improving their chance of survival.During one of their excursions, they encounter a half human/half alien hybrid, which leads to the discovery of an unknown scientific military bunker. As the hybrid and survivors create an alliance, the question becomes: “Is this hybrid the answer to wiping out the Reficulians once and for all?”What powers and abilities does the hybrid have that will improve their odds against the Reficulians? What transformation takes place in the hybrid cementing his relationship with the survivors?A few of many praises for Keltian’s Warriors: The End’s Beginning - Book One of the Keltian Trilogy:“…A book of classical science fiction apocalyptic survival.
