Ordained by the Light but consumed by vengeance. How can she be the galaxy’s last hope when all she feels is hate?
For eons, the Templar were known as the warriors of the Light—guardians who fought to preserve the peace and stability of a galaxy plagued by darkness. But in time, the seeds of corruption ignited a war that tore the seven bloodlines of their order apart and scattered them across the stars where they were hunted down to the brink of extinction.
After centuries in exile, Aliya Minjassu is among the precious few who remain. Scarred and embittered by tragedy, she has forsaken the Light to seek vengeance against the dark immortal who murdered her family. But when she is drawn into a quest to recover a relic once coveted by her father, she will be confronted by a power and responsibility that she can no longer deny.
Torn between the Light and the Darkness, Aliya must now choose the path she will follow as she joins a band of renegades on a galaxy-sprawling adventure that will lead her toward an inevitable encounter with the enemy of her soul and a battle for the fate of the galaxy.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Rene Hinojosa grew up in deep South Texas where he spent his early years running through his grandfather’s endless cotton fields and occasionally climbing onto the roof of the house to watch crop dusters zoom by. The dreams that began there in the twilight of a rural Texas sky went on to be fueled by some of the most influential sci-fi, action and adventure films of all time. Rene’s fascination with novels, comics and movies eventually led to a successful career in visual design and animation, but it was his profound love for storytelling that led him to found Innovative Renderworx—a creative studio dedicated to producing stories that were grounded in faith. Templar: The Last Remnant is his first novel, adapted directly from his screenplay. Rene currently lives in Central Texas with his beautiful wife and adventurous son.
