A young woman possessing dangerous, destructive power is Earth’s last hope for survival against alien invaders in this cyberpunk dystopian adventure.
Viral, extraterrestrial nanites collectively known as the Mist have been transforming Earth and its inhabitants for nearly a century. The shapeshifting environment has wreaked havoc across the planet, changing the elemental structures of land, air, and water—and forcing every living being to endure an unnatural evolution. As animals warped into monsters and people developed superhuman abilities, the Mist also accelerated and amplified technology into tools and weapons that disrupted the world’s status quo. And while nations were plunged into chaos and war, aliens harvested Earth’s resources, leaving humanity on the brink of extinction.
Mira Braddock’s own humanity was sacrificed in order for her to become the world’s savior. A cybernetic soldier enhanced with a Tier 7 Nexus Implant, she’s a Mist Warden capable of manipulating the nanites inside anything and anyone, making her the most powerful and feared being in existence. Mira’s crusade against Earth’s enemies has brought mass destruction in her wake. Millions of aliens and humans have died at her hands. Each victory increases her godlike power, and she finds herself slipping away, struggling to relate to the needs of her allies—and Patrick Ward, the man she loves—as she undergoes an astounding transcendence.
But the alien Arbiters of Orion would rather destroy the Earth outright than allow Mira to become an even greater threat to their place in the universe . . .

A young champion declares war against a tyrannical empire, bringing him into conflict with the woman he once loved, in this dark fantasy adventure.
After years of battling elite soldiers, slaying soul-crushing monsters, and acquiring powerful combat skills and destructive mana abilities, the realization of Zeke Blackwood’s destiny is imminent. Everything he’s endured since being reborn into a system of troll-infested caves has been to prepare him for ascension into the Ethereal Realm, where he’ll stand against the forces of darkness that threaten all existence.
Despite his near limitless power, Zeke still has obligations to the multicultural kingdom he founded, in which beastkin, kobolds, centaurs, elves, and other races fight for freedom and justice for all creatures. He refuses to leave his people at the mercy of the Imperium, a fascist regime built on the backs of the enslaved.
The Imperium is led by those who believe humans are superior to every other sentient species throughout the realm. Their forces are ruthless, and none more so than the Radiant zealots devoted to the Sun Goddess, who are more than willing to kill and die in her name. And Abby Summers, once Zeke’s companion and lover, is the Host’s High Inquisitor.
But Zeke’s armies are on the offense, tearing down one Imperium stronghold after another, freeing the subjugated, and slaughtering anyone who dares oppose them. They’ll stop at nothing and spare no one—even Abby . . .

Driven by fury, wracked with guilt, a young woman’s war to free Earth from aliens has devastating consequences, in this action-packed dystopian adventure.
Humanity’s days are numbered. Earth is on a collision course with the one-hundredth anniversary of first contact with the invasive species that unleashed the Mist into its atmosphere. Spreading like a virus, these nanites altered the very air and soil of the planet, poisoning the land and mutating the animals. People evolved beyond their biology into superhuman beings, while scientific advancements in technology and weaponry shifted the hierarchies of the world’s most powerful nations. While armies battle to create a new order, the aliens are left free to leech Earth’s natural resources.
Standing between human greed and alien invasion is Mira Braddock. Augmented with a Tier 7 Nexus Implant, she’s a cybernetic warrior capable of harnessing the Mist for her own ends. But she used her immeasurable abilities to destroy the megacity of Nova, killing millions of innocent people in selfish pursuit of vengeance. Three years later, she remains traumatized, with only the love of cybernetic engineer Patrick Ward to prevent her from sliding into an unrelenting mire of guilt and grief.
Now, events have escalated as warring alien factions continue to prey on humankind. The E’rok Tan have bred people as livestock. The collective known as the Pacificians indoctrinate humans to join their hive. And the Gomari Confederation, strip-mining Earth of its value, threaten to annihilate anything left alive. But no one is prepared for Mira. Fearless and merciless, she possesses enough power and willingness to exterminate entire populations of enemies . . .

Machines no longer function, nations have fallen, and the remnants of humanity struggle to survive in a world brimming with danger . . . and power. But from the ashes of civilization, Ethera—a mystical energy that grants supernatural abilities through a game-like system of stats, spells, and magical evolutions—has emerged.

Having forged an uneasy alliance with the dwarves, goblins, and gnomes of Ironshore, Elijah sets out on a quest to reunite with his sister and her family. Along the way, he helps those in need—be they beasts or people—and plays the role of both healer and protector, battling plague and peril in a cursed tower of puzzles and alien threats.
But unbeknownst to Elijah, his kin have fallen under the tyrannical control of a rising despot. It seems a former-sheriff-turned-warlord has seized the suburbs of Seattle and declared himself their unquestioned ruler. And he doesn’t take kindly to challenges to his authority . . .
