ACADIA SYNOPSIS
Acadia—the last human city, a fact all of its citizens were told from birth. For two hundred years, a countless host of creatures have laid siege to Acadia, leaving the land rough with the bodies of the fallen. For Cojax becoming a Validated, a true defender of the city, is his greatest ambition. That all changes when Jessica appears—a girl from outside the city walls—from a land that supposedly held no life. Her presence threatens to undermine the entire society, putting Cojax in an impossible situation. He now must choose between what is right and the survival of his people.
INSPIRATION FOR ACADIA
Many years ago, I worked in law enforcement. While in the department, everything you were boiled down to your badge number, which was based on seniority. Even if you were the worst cop on the beat, you still got the best days off, the newest equipment, and the greatest opportunity for promotion if you had a low badge number. While on midnight shift, as a junior cop, when I was not chasing bad guys, I would spend my time thinking of a system that would be more fair. A system that would allocate the greatest resources to the areas where they would do the most good. Eventually, I developed the idea of a perfect meritocracy. The more I thought about it, the more complex the system became, until one day, unknowingly, I had developed the constructs of ACADIA.
