Held captive in the frozen wilderness, transhuman Chase Sterling
almost loses faith that he'll ever be reunited with his bride and
with the persecuted souls he's promised to guard. His escape leads
to even greater struggles, and discoveries about his own abilities.
At last, he arrives at the unusual location his people have chosen
as a hiding place. And then things get complicated. His wife's been
kidnapped and the underground faces annihilation. Victory and
heartbreak build Chase's resolve, until he is forced to face his
worst fear. Now he must choose whether to sacrifice himself. He's
endured so much since they transformed him into the world's first
transhuman, but will he survive the final transfusion?

In the near future, fugitive Chase Sterling evades the transhuman
life his creators intended him to lead. He connects with the
Underground Church, confident his enhanced strength and
intelligence make him the perfect guardian for those forced into a
strange and secret existence. What could possibly go wrong? His
unimpressed bodyguard is out to get him, his affection for a
certain young woman may not be mutual, and a deceitful recruit
accompanies Chase on a rescue mission . . . with plans to kidnap
him. The leader of the underground is dying and the government is
closing in. The super powers Chase relies on are switched off by an
enemy he thought he had escaped. It's enough to make a transhuman
give up. Will he find the courage to keep going before all humanity
is lost?
What if the first man reborn of an evolutionary leap doesn't like
his new life? Is escape even possible? The time is right for
introducing the world to the marvels of techno-medical
advancements. An influential man, one loved and adored, is needed
for the job, and who better than celebrity Chase Sterling? After
suffering injuries no one could survive Chase is rebuilt like no
one has ever seen before. In the not-too-distant future a man-'if
he can still be called a man'-breaks away from the forces taking
over his life and finds new purpose in the secret world of hiding
believers.
In the past two decades a surge of research in seismology and
seismic hazard led to increased interest from geologists for the
potential of archaeologically derived seismic information to
seismic research. The subject of this work is, therefore, a study
of archaeological remains as a proxy data source for earthquake
geology and palaeoseismology.This was carried out through an
examination of the previous work (both archaeological and
geological). Based on the findings of the methodological and
theoretical discussion an alternative to the universal
identification criteria approach is proposed by the author.
