Epic: Dawn of Destiny (Epic #1)
by
Lee Stephen (Goodreads Author)
Some men go to war for the glory. Some men go to war to escape. For Scott Remington, war is entirely different. It is a belief. It is a calling. It is a destiny. Leaving everything behind-his fiance, his future, his life-he embarks on a mission of faith into a battle he can barely understand. This is his story. This is his war. This is only the beginning.

A lot of writers are passionate about their work. It’s a career requirement really. That enthusiasm on the part of Lee Stephen translated from the outset when I received all three of his books in one envelope. Inside the front cover of each one was a different and separate dedication to me, personalising forever these books. So many books I receive are simply slipped into an envelope and mailed off without a second thought. I truly felt Lee had mailed something of himself to me. With this ...more
Full disclosure: I received this book as a gift from the author.
There's something refreshing about a boots-on-the-ground alien invasion of Earth. When aliens darken our doorstep, they seldom need to send troops down to pacify the population, probably because any species advanced enough to have interstellar spaceflight capability will also have some pretty terrible weapons. Why send wave after wave of soldiers when some well-placed bombs and a few destroyed satellites will accomplis...more

The Good -- There is much to like in Lee Stephen’s first novel, Dawn of Destiny. As first attempts go this is a cracking effort, and its real strength is that it never tries to be more than it is, and what it is, emphatically, is an adrenaline fueled military sci-fi action-adventure.

Every now and then I'll browse the science fiction library and try and find those diamond in the roughs. Even though doing that is extremely difficult, sometimes they miss the margin, and other times a book like DoD comes and throws a knockout punch.
I like everything about Lee Stephens' writing style, it's not to technical or weighing, it's straight forward and to the point. The words fly off the pages and grab on, it stays with you all night and into the days. We learn about Scott Rem...more

Currently the best-selling independent sci-fi series in America, Lee Stephen's Epic tells the tale of Scott Remington, a young soldier enlisted in a global military created to fend off hostile extraterrestrials. A cross-genre series, Epic is about more than just science-fiction and war. It is a story of faith and the human condition, of camaraderie and conflict.
