LOS ANGELES - May 6, 2015 - PRLog -- (Los Angeles, CA) – He was first known for engaging an audience on an island and a legion of viewers worldwide with his prolific storytelling on the CBS hit show Survivor. Now, Phillip Sheppard, which fans may remember best as The Specialist, has used those skills and experiences in his new book, The Legend of Things Past, which officially released Sunday.

The book which is categorized as a science fiction action thriller set in the year 2258 and surrounds Army Specialist, Donovan Knight who lives in a world of significant scientific and technological advances. However, with a dramatic increase of terrorism Knight is sent on a mission to save the human race from a deadly biological attack—a mission that will force him to leave his family and one from which he may never return. Although Knight is a man with an incredible sense of duty, honor, courage, and family he is equally capable of unimaginable mayhem.

Sheppard credits his experiences on Survivor as motivation while writing the book.  “On Survivor you are forced to deal with hardship, alienation, and starvation while trying to remain focused on the tasks at hand and adapt to the situation you are in. I had to have perseverance, creativity, and the fortitude as an older man to stay in the game the entire thirty-nine days my first season and go back for a second season. The experience also taught me I could adapt living day to day in a location I had never been, all while staying focused onknowing who to align myself with and who to eliminate quickly. To accept there is a time to be ruthless for the right purpose while being true to your values to achieve your goal. All of it, I brought into this novel and to our protagonist, Donovan Knight “stated Sheppard.

After two seasons on one of CBS’s highest rated shows, it should be no surprise to fans that Phillip is extremely creative and when you partner that with his experiences, readers should find that The Legend of Things Past is a compelling story told in a futuristic world that’s exciting, adventurous, and one that readers can’t get enough of.

The Legend of Things Past can be purchased on all leading literary e-commerce sites including Amazon.com. Sheppard is set to begin a book tour later this month.
