\u2018Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Revelation 18:10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Babylon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The greatest city in the world. The city of gods and monsters. The city where the New Gods reigned supreme\u2014and struggled against each other for supremacy. Only a handful of courageous and resourceful former special operators kept them from dominating humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, in a single stroke, ten million people in Babylon transform into maddened Husks\u2014and two<\/em> of the New Gods fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chaos presents the ultimate opportunity for the surviving New Gods. Mobilizing their forces, they march on Babylon and the world, surging forth to fill the power vacuum. This is the final war, of all against all, where winner takes all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this is also humanity\u2019s last and best chance to throw off the shackles of false gods forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assembling survivors, soldiers, and former operators of the Special Tasks Section, Major Yuri Yamamoto assumes command of a combined task force to face the coming apocalypse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In between salvage missions and noncombatant evacuation operations, they carry out long-range patrols and surgical strikes, confronting the dark powers seeking the ruin of souls. Over land, sea and air, they will do battle with cults and cosmic horrors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are outnumbered, outgunned, and outmatched in every way. Resupply is uncertain; survival, almost impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Yuri Yamamoto doesn\u2019t just want to survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He wants to win<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

—<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Babylon White is the culmination of the Babylon quartet. It is the apocalyptic showdown between men and monsters, false gods and timeless faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Babylon White collects the final three novels of the Babylon quartet:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Babylon Burning<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Babylon spirals into madness and self-destruction, Yuri Yamamoto scrambles to rally his allies and evacuate the innocent. He can’t save everyone, but perhaps he can save his own community: the last Christians of Babylon, whose faith threatens the New Gods. To survive, they must blaze a path to a refuge beyond the reach of Husks and horrors alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blades Against Babylon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yuri had planned to wait out the apocalypse. But duty will not wait. Recalled to arms, Yuri Yamamoto returns to Babylon as the commander of a combined task force. Their mission: to drive out the remnants of the New Gods from Babylon once and for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Babylon White<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The war for Babylon reaches its climax. As Yuri\u2019s troops push deeper into Babylon, the New Gods push back. At the edge of reality, something ancient and terrible is poised to break through. The fate of mankind rests on a desperate thunder run into hell and glory\u2014and on the shoulders of a mortal man of unbreakable faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crowdfunding campaign for BABYLON WHITE is now live on Kickstarter. Backers will receive the book ONE\u00a0MONTH ahead of the market. There are also many attractive rewards for backers at the higher tiers, including my complete bibliography, as well as editing and coaching services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only that, I’m partnering once again with Jacob Calta to bring you exclusive rewards for this campaign. He has graciously composed a soundtrack just for BABYLON WHITE. A dynamic fusion of taiko drums and futuristic synths, it is the essence of Babylon expressed in music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jacob is also offering a number of rewards related to his 365 Infantry multimedia project, including ebooks, audio adventures, and a one-year subscription to the 365 Infantry substack. If you’re eager to read more media like Babylon, you’ll find plenty of excitement in 365 Infantry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kickstarter will run for 30 days. 30 days to bring this story to life\u2014and the series to a close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come raise your blade against Babylon and back the campaign!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
