In a world of monsters, magic, and empires, no one can tolerate a weak king. Pirin, heir to the throne, should’ve had every advantage in life, but he is an Embercore—a magical cripple. His arcane techniques and psychic bloodline abilities are more likely to blow up in his face than work properly. No matter what, he’ll always be a step behind. But unstable magic can be the most devastating if used just right. Armed with nothing but stubborn determination, he sets out into foreign lands to fix his soul, find an animal familiar, and push the absolute limits of his unstable abilities.

A world drowned in rot and blood, where the infected tear through flesh and bone with savage hunger. Moira carries a deadly poison—a biotoxin that will burn through the infected, but also doom the innocent. As rivers run crimson and screams echo through the ruins, survival means choosing who lives… and who becomes the next meal. Dead Horizon drags you into a brutal nightmare of flesh, death, and desperate mercy—where the line between hunter and hunted is soaked in gore and despair.

Life for 13-year-old Joseph Young is pre-defined, living in a small-town farming community where generations upon generations have lived, where everybody knows everybody, and where everybody takes care of everybody. When the government's newly formed Children's Alliance Coalition announces they will be coming to town to audit families, everybody is walking on eggshells. Families are told that if they do not meet Coalition standards, their children will be taken and placed in approved Coalition homes, never to see their families again upon fear of punishment or death.
