Aliens

With the help of the Dark Zodiac, they seek to conquer the world and use humans for food! That's all I can reveal for now! As each part of the story progresses, more information about the mysterious aliens and their true motives is revealed. Not everything is as it seems!

Dark Zodiac Secret Society

Genetically enhanced super humans. One for each of the twelve signs of the zodiac. Each with their own unique powers. Lead by a mysterious cloaked figure who has agreed to help the aliens take over the world. Part three reveals exactly where their secret base is, who their sinister leader is (ATOSS) and the connection to the aliens. Secrets are revealed and motives exposed!

• Dark Scorpio. One of the many genetically enhanced super humans created by the Dark Zodiac's sinister scientists. A young woman with a deadly sting in her tail!
• Dark Aries. One of the many genetically enhanced super humans created by the Dark Zodiac's sinister scientists. He is the deputy leader of the secret society. Dark Aries is an older man of giant proportions. At least three meters high, covered with rippling muscles and covered in black and red high-tech armour. On his head he has a battle helmet and two large metallic horns.
• Dark Leo. One of the many genetically enhanced super humans created by the Dark Zodiac's sinister scientists. Dark Leo is a teenage girl wearing tight fitting black body armour. Tall and athletic and the strange outfit makes her look like a living statue. On her head wares a helmet shaped like a scowling lion. Attached to it was a lion-mane head dress which is a mass of wild red hair.
• Dark Libra. One of the many genetically enhanced super humans created by the Dark Zodiac's sinister scientists. Possess remarkable powers which are used to fight james to get the next crystal.
• Dark Taurus. One of the many genetically enhanced super humans created by the Dark Zodiac's sinister scientists. Possess even more strength than Dark Aries. An unstable incomplete superhuman who is out of control.

Atlantis

The Atlantis referred to in the Crystal Quest book series is mysterious and uncharted. While myths suggest that it was on an island in the Atlantic, or a volcano in the Mediterranean, no one is sure. Only as book 3 concludes will more of its true history be revealed to James. Why did the ancients scatter and hide the crystals ten thousand years ago? How were they able to travel through time to hide them? Why was Atlantis destroyed? How was it destroyed? What is the true secret of the crystals? Where did the crystals come from? How did the wise people of Atlantis harness their awesome power? Where is (if anything still remains of it) Atlantis?

In part four there is no way for James to avoid it! He has to back to the beginning and see how the quest started! Time travel takes on a whole new meaning for the adventurers. Not to mention (we said not to mention) the true origins of the ancient stone tablet and location coin...

What would aliens really be like?

Man has always dreamed on life on other planets. Books, films and television programmes exist in abundance. Some are darstardly - like the Daleks in Dr Who or the Tripods in War of the Worlds. However, some writers have depicted aliens as friendly and highly intelligent - such as the Vulcans in Star Trek. But would they really look like humans, or would they be more like ET, with an extendable neck? Would they thrive on oxygen, as we do?

I guess we may never know, but it can be fun thinking about it.

What do you think they look / sound / smell like? Who are they? Where do they come from? Why are they coming? What do they want? Are they a myth / made up by people? Is there a Government cover-up? Are we alone in the universe? Is there only one universe?
