The Conquering Beasts

In the troubled night sky, the twin moons of planet Dulunae are shifting, causing the seas to rage. Under the ground, fiery rivers of molten rock are seething, about to burst onto the surface. Millions of diverse creatures on Dulunae sense the profound changes in the planet. Some hide. Others migrate. Still others know one thing: It is time to destroy other species and seize ultimate power.

Leader Gyro and his team must fight the Tndrills, the living daggers. The daydreamer, Yan, falls prey to Predictors, beings capable of mimicking living bodies and foretelling their grim futures. The Outcasts must escape the relentless attack of vicious flying creatures known as the Khan-shee. All the while, the Font of Knowledge bides its time, awaiting the startling revelations of the planets unfolding. To survive, the Outcasts must do the unthinkable: they must become allies with the monstrous Shadow Beasts!"Shocks! Surprises! Twists and turns await you! Join the Outcasts in a pulse-pounding race to HayVen, the only place of safety on Dulunae. Find out who escapes from... The Conquering Beasts"

Author Gregory Janicke has also created special drawings of the Shadow Beasts characters for the series which are included in the books. Each book in the Shadow Beasts Series offers "Questions for Discussion." These questions are specially designed to stimulate conversation among readers about cultural similarities and differences, the importance of taking responsibility, the value of science and many other interesting topics.
