The Progenitors Thomas S Lalumiere

Certain DNA lines of the Warrior Castes had been hidden on Earth three-hundred years ago, to be passed on from father to son ... but only if the father is past the age of forty. One father and his ten-year-old son learn during a road trip across the USA that they are descendants of one of those DNA lines after they are sent via worm-hole to the SumerTol Colony of Vatana to take their places among the SumerTol Colonial Militia. Helped along by a Progenitor Fighter Pilot named Evelina and a young Apprentice Caretaker named Kaira, they must navigate the awkwardness of cultures separated by thousands of years of societal evolution while they learn the truth about human origins and why their DNA is so important. Follow the story of the "Si-Ubian" as he and his son, Gerard, are taken from 2019 Earth and must learn an advanced culture, new language and find their place in a three-hundred-year old war. The Progenitors: Last Outpost of the SumerTol is a speculative story of how an advanced civilization might foster a caste of Warriors based on certain philosophical assertions from Book V of Plato's Republic.
