In the mid-twenty-first century, the United States goes through a fundamental change. White people are now only the largest minority in America. Will they surrender power to the coalition to follow, or fight “to keep what’s theirs”? So begins a terrible, violent game of chess played for the heart and soul of a nation.
Welcome to the world of Steve Tallman, the driven producer of a celebrated news program watched by avid millions over TV, the Net, and cellular. He comes across a document that cannot be believed but is frighteningly true, a database of organizations intent on destroying the basic freedoms Americans take for granted. The perpetrators of this conspiracy push a bill through Congress, an "Equal Opportunity in Government" law that would, if enacted, smother democracy under a new form of apartheid.
What would you do with such incendiary information? Steve does exactly the wrong thing, discovering thereafter that the shadow rulers of the American republic are entities not to be trifled with. Perceiving his news organization as a threat, the conspirators lash out at Tallman, destroying not only his access to media, but everything and everyone touching on his life.
The end? Not at all. For Steve's cowardly enemy underestimates who they've attempted to crush. A journalist, a war hero, a man who lives by razor-sharp virtues, Steve Tallman rallies to come at the schemers from an unexpected and devastating direction. He risks all, including his life and the lives of all around him, for Steve is a patriot in the truest sense of the word.
The question remains, can Tallman defeat a far more powerful and organized political beast? Even more important: succeed or fail, can he survive the effort?
Stephan Michael Loy, who brought you the socially controversial epics of Last Days and Times and Shining Star, now presents a stone-hard parable of the American Dream gone nightmare. Conqueror's Realm is a deft warning that there can be no justice if justice is not for all.
