Sentry - The Adventures of Jack Schilt 
by Michael Thiele 


    

Sentry - The Adventures of Jack Schilt is the story of young Jack Schilt whose carefree days end when he is confronted with the true history of his ancestors that not only changes forever his life but also challenges the right to live of the entire human colony on the planet Gondwana. When man started to colonize Gondwana 600 years before Jack's birth, a dark chapter in human history was being written. The enslavement of the various indigenous peoples and their abuse for dubious experiments in the name of almighty science eventually unleashes a fatal war that brings the human race to the brink of destruction. In the face of a completely new beginning the survivors, deprived of their technologies and knowledge, commence building a more peaceful world and decide to keep the past from their children.

When Jack Schilt and his brother Rob come across old scripts that reveal the world of their ancestors the way it really was, things are being set into motion that can not be undone anymore. All of a sudden legends become reality, truths turn into lies. Along with the Old Knowledege ancient powers awake that had rested underneath the apparently quiet surface. Several different life forms resume fighting for the supremacy on Gondwana. The legitimate masters, however, prove to be too powerless to win the last battle and eventually take advantage of the humans to turn the tables to their favour.

Jack's odyssey through the vast lands of Gondwana begins when his brother Rob disappears out of the blue. More and more he realizes the key role he has to play, a burden imposed on him by a past long gone. Too late he discovers that either succeeding or failing his mission means the end of mankind on Gondwana.
