However, he had no knowledge of all that it takes to achieve these characteristics. After having his desires granted in each case, he became more miserable.

Mitochondrial Eves
Author: AJC Green
Publisher: Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency
ISBN: 1682356515
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
In the infinite voids of space, time had no meaning. No today. No yesterday. Suddenly, a gargantuan explosion tore through this nothingness. This caused the universe to be conceived and it spawned Leaffe, a supernatural being. She oversaw the creation of the universe and the creation of planets. On one planet, Zula, the people had advanced to such an extent that they overpopulated the planet by banning religions and the concomitant wars. This increased greenhouse gasses through the overuse of industry and the planet was heading for self-destruction. A space station, Haven, was built to house a select group, so their race would survive. When aliens, led by Shaitan, attacked the space station, Leaffe intervened. She helped a group of children to escape in the newly built spaceship Ark, which had been built on Haven using green technology. The crew on Ark travelled in D-stasis cocoons and did not age. This allowed Leaffe to take the Ark to a solar system many light-years away. Using the Ark’s advanced technology, Leaffe subtly persuaded them to change the orbit of a planet closer to the sun, creating planet Earth. By leaving their cocoons only for short periods, they were able to observe and take part in the evolution of Earth from the dawn of the dinosaurs to Homo sapiens. Three of them stayed with the sapiens, but Shaitan arrived, with devastating consequences. The Ark returned thousands of years later, finding some frightening facts about Shaitan and that there was more than one Mitochondrial Eve.

A couple, a crowded restaurant, and a terrible event... After a tour in Afghanistan, a soldier's discharge bliss is fractured, a bliss that was an adrenaline high, but then fizzles to vanish. During a celebration with his girl friend in a waterfront restaurant, she fights off a police officer's sexual advances by striking the offender. The pair, Sebastian Boyle and Sheila Comfort, escape the scene to find themselves the focus of a police man hunt and a media splurge. Bent on expanding readership, the local news spearheads front page coverage of this and further events as they unfold. The officer dies, which is followed by a second officer's assault and then a third. A cavernous hole develops in which Sebastian and Sheila find themselves entangled, trying to dodge the media, the police, and an unknown consortium stealing from military bases. Escaping an assassination attempt, Sebastian, through a kidnapping of Sheila, faces the fact that he and Sheila are helpless victims, trapped beyond their control by greater forces waiting to dismantle them. Without hesitation, Sebastian weaves his way into the maze laid by terrorists, the FBI, NSA and U.S. Marshals. In the end, however, he finds himself in another trap for life
