One man obsessed with power.
One
woman prepared to sacrifice everything to stop him.
One
war that changed the world.
“World War Three lasted twelve days.
Twelve days was all it took for mankind to devastate the planet and almost
eradicate the human race. No victor emerged from the ashes and billions lost
their lives.
We survivors lived through the bleakest
of winters. A primal existence became the new order, and the little that
remained of our humanity hung in the balance.
Then one man stood up and changed the
world. I believed, as did everyone else, that he was the hero of our time, the
man who had saved us from our own demise. His name is Eric Dane and he is the
President of the New United States of America.
He is also my husband, and my greatest
enemy.
I grew up oblivious to the truth, until
my father found me when I was nineteen years old. He told me about the many
horrifying facts that our new leader kept hidden from us. And he told me that
beyond the borders the Resistance grew and fought for freedom from the
oppression that Eric Dane had imposed on us.
My name is Rebecca Davis. I am
twenty-six years old, and in me the Resistance has found the ultimate weapon.”
A narrative of good and evil, love and passion, right
and wrong – and at the centre of the story a strong woman who is prepared to
sacrifice everything for the cause she believes in.
The Legacy is an action-packed, adrenalin-inducing thrill ride
which will leave you riveted long after you have turned the last page.
Bio
Wife and mother of 3,
Melissa Delport is the author of The
Legacy Trilogy and the stand-alone self-published e.books Rainfall and The Traveler.
She graduated from the University of South Africa with a
Bachelor’s Degree in English in 2000
At the age of twenty-four Melissa
started a logistics company (Transmax) from the spare room of her flat and
built it up to two fully operational depots in Durban and Johannesburg. Now, 10
years later, she has sold her business in order to write full time.
Melissa lives with her husband and three children in
Hillcrest, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
The Legacy (book
1 of The Legacy Trilogy) and The Legion
(book 2) are available now and the final book, The Legend, will be released early 2015.
An avid reader herself, Melissa finally decided to stop ‘watching
from the sidelines’ and to do what is her passion.
“I was driving
home from work when inspiration struck, and a storyline started unravelling in
my head. For a few days it was all I could think about and eventually I
realised that the only way to get it out of my head, was to put it all down on
paper. I started writing, and that was that.”
