The Vinctalin Legacy: Legacy

by Vanda M. Denton

Set five thousand years in the future, planet earth has become a sparsely populated, arid wilderness. Most of the people have joined pacifist sects flying under the banner of heroes from the past who, they believe, fought off an alien invasion. One of these peace-loving sects is at odds with the others, adhering to the belief that the terrible conditions endured on earth are a result of human negligence. The remaining humans are an alliance of non-pacifist, non-believers who have been pushed to the desolate fringes of the habitable region. Aggression turns to war with the sects uniting in defence of what has become a reasonably good life. The dramatic climax reveals the truth of who was responsible for the apocalypse.

About the author

Vanda M Denton is the author of complex, thought-provoking novels spanning genres from scifi and fantasy, through speculative to literary fiction.
She was born to a Polish WW2 hero. Awareness of the invasion and occupation of her father’s homeland engendered interests in human survival and fairness. This desire to see justice done is reflected in all her work.
Vanda draws on knowledge gained through two degrees covering education, psychology, social sciences, philosophy and arts. This formal education fires her ongoing interests in psycho-social themes as well as modern biological and scientific developments. She often recounts a phrase expressed by her sister long before attending university: You think too much. That is a state of mind she thoroughly enjoys sharing with her readers.
