ABOUT THE BOOK
The year’s 2027.
Humanity has split into two halves: First World, the floating plate above that covers ⅓ of the planet built with futuristic technology and home to 56 million First Class citizens, and Second World, the Original Earth below, running to ruin from war, famine, and poverty.
Recruited by Second World from jail, Jukebox is taken to their Base, discovering files with dragons, mythical shape shifting snakes from China—even the ghost from his past. And when the dragons actually show up, threatening to destroy humanity within three days, it doesn’t make it any better. Not even the androids and cyborgs that are sent to kill him on an everyday basis. Maybe it’s because they’re looking for his dad, who holds all the original secrets and truths behind their world’s destruction, like him.
And when it is learned that a comet will hit both worlds soon, Jukebox is faced with the decision of fighting for his race or himself when the meteor is established to contain a power that could grant mankind renewed life, or instantaneous death— his power. Both worlds are in competition to get to him and the comet once learning Jukebox can stop it—at the price of dying, deeming this battle as a Second War—Riley’s War. And Jukebox doesn’t even want to stop it.
Riley's War: Phase 1 is a powerful, explosive sci-fi YA fantasy and action/adventure complete at 38,600 words with undeniable series potential that would appeal to fans of diverse POC with LGBTQIA+ main characters and supporting cast.

BOOK EXCERPTS
I smirked. Obsidian froze, then began to grin, letting me go. “I like your style.” he leered. “You’re a nice kid. Nice hair. What’s your name?”
“Jukebox.”
“Seriously?”
“Seriously.”
“Huh.” He nodded his head a couple times, placing his hand underneath his chin. He whipped his head around to face me. “Seriously?”
“Seriously.” I answered.
“What phase is this in?” I asked him.
“Seriously?”
“Seriously.”
“Huh.” He nodded his head a couple times, placing his hand underneath his chin. He whipped his head around to face me. “Seriously?”

***************
“What phase is this in?” I asked him.
“Phase 1.” he answered. “Time is running out. Make your decision.”
“I’m not coming back.”
A blade slammed down on top of me.
