What the history books never tell you...
In the decades leading up to the first Gulf War, modern weapons shake the air, land, and sea. Until finally, Saxuru, one of the old gods, slips through a fractured barrier and rises from the Red Sea, eager to take dominion.
But war has changed over the centuries, and Saxuru is met with the dogged resistance of Joint Task Force 13 an elite, covert Unit sworn to hold fast against every evil, supernatural threat.
One particular warrior vows to track Saxuru and bring him down. Tapped for assignment aboard the Navy's highly classified seventh hydrofoil, Thomas 'Red' McCraith joins the bedraggled crew of the USS Scorpius as they patrol the shores of a region plagued by political unrest, religious extremists, and dark, ancient sorcery.
The conflict spills over until the fate of all mankind hangs in the balance. With casualties and collateral damage mounting, time grows short for both sides. Tensions mount and the crisis escalates, as Saxuru summons his most horrific creature, Falak, the Serpent which lives only to do its master's bidding and yearns to feast again on human flesh.
