Overview

A century has passed since the Cage event, with millions of people taken to the planet Kiranis. With the Shield around Earth nearing completion, its enigmatic architects are about to make themselves known. Powerful men are in control of Kwaios technology, overseeing the destiny of humankind. But the great transport system called MEC is a monumental lie, and the Kwaios have had a hundred years to set their trap. Guided by the Prophet Naveen, one man is in the centre of a star-spanning scheme that will shift the balance of power forever. But he is only one man. In Kiranis, Ronald builds a universe and populates it with characters - human and alien - of familiar proclivities and relatable ambitions. Of both darkness and light he writes, blurring the gray areas of morality amidst an unfolding chaos of universal proportions. The Kiranis series is big and bold, with underlying philosophies and dark insights intricately woven into an epic Space Opera. Merging Science Fiction tropes with Fantasy staples, Ronald weaves an epic story that redefines and reinvigorates both genres.

"""The second volume in the Kiranis series, Pawns of the Prophet contains all of the elements that made Gods of Kiranis a breathtaking (or maddening) tale, depending on perspective. If you enjoyed the first book, there's nothing in this one to dissuade readers from continuing the journey through one of the most unique sci-fi sagas ever written.[...] Once again, it's incredibly well written, with a multi-layered, extremely complex plotline."" - Monster Librarian ""This, the second volume in Goebey's multiverse-straddling epic, propels the reader deeper into the machinations and minds of his chief protagonists, their worlds, and the forces that drive them. Things are never as they seem, each layer a prelude to others, every climax a beginning. [...] But be warned. What you thought you knew as true is, like Naveen himself, illusory at best; simply another lie at worst."" - Ishmael A. Soledad ""Geobey writes with skill and authority. There are no loopholes and it is clean and meticulous in every conceivable way. The science fiction is on point and the fantasy elements [dragons!] coexist brilliantly. I'm hooked and just so pleased with this series...and impatient for book three. Very, very highly recommended."" - Asher Syed, for Readers' Favorite"
