Book Description
What was once home to the native tribe known as the Ohlone, and functioning as guardian of the San Francisco Bay under Spanish, Mexican, and American flags, the Presidio has served as outpost as well as cultural barometer of the vast changes this country and the state of California have seen. For almost a century and a half, the U.S. military transformed these grounds into a logistical centerpiece for every American conflict and created a pioneering airfield for early flight experiments. The Presidio served as the headquarters for the Western Defense Command during World War II and until its closure in 1994. The Golden Gate National Recreation Area then embraced a unique opportunity to develop the Presidio into a mixed-use area where it once again became an influential icon as development tackled various social, cultural, and environmental issues to point northern California into a new century while simultaneously tracing this country's past.

Book Description
A thousand years ago, the apocalypse ravaged the world. During this struggle, the people of Gilgin founded the Inquisition to combat the horrors of the dark gods. It was only when the Inquisition vanquished the Manhir, monsters made of living stone, that humanity was saved. Since then, mankind has slowly been rebuilding civilization under their watchful rule. Then Finn, a ranger imprisoned for fighting a leader of the Inquisition, unearths a living Manhir. To his surprise the creature helps him escape. In return, Finn feels honor-bound to help him discover the truth about what happened a thousand years ago. Hunted by the Inquisition, they travel to the Oracle in search of answers. When they find them, they accidentally awaken a force long thought gone from the world. Monsters who disappeared during the apocalypse reemerge from the earth and overrun the cities of mankind, wielding dark magic and devastating machines of war. Still pursued by the Inquisition for his friendship with the Manhir, Finn looks for a way to defeat the dark forces he awakened and avert a second apocalypse. The key lies with the Inquisition, but they see him as a heretic. He needs to convince them to muster their forces and fight alongside him before they manage to capture and execute him.
