CROSSBREED PHENOMENON When disaster strikes, the world is aware. Storms leave devastation in their wake. Contagions can be traced back to their source. An atom bomb has a mushroom cloud. What if something catastrophic happened and no one knew? What if it altered the DNA of unborn babies, both human and animals? What if the genetic defects did not appear for a decade?Children at puberty beguine to mutate into animal-like creatures called crossbreeds. Animales mutate into flesh-eating monsters called Manticore. There is no known cause or cure, and in the mass confusion, conspiracy theories abound. Could it have been a science experiment gone awry? What if a terrorist unleashed a deadly plague? Perhaps the end times foretold in Revelations have come about? Ultimately humanity is devastated from the collapse of governments and vicious attacks from the voracious manticore. Dark Legends recounts two romantic stories from the tumultuous past and prove that love can conquer quite a lot.
