SHORTLISTED FOR THE OPEN NOVELLA CONTEST. And thank you to @StoriesUndiscovered for adding this to their 'Tales of Adventure' reading list! Maisie has been lying to the world for years. In fact, she helps others lie, too. It's part of her work; people come to the tower, asking her to plant fake memories into their minds for them to relive and remember. All she asks for, in return, is for them to let her keep one of their memories. So, when someone offers her a memory of her twin -- her twin who is supposed to be dead -- Maisie is prepared to do anything to bring her back home. Even if it means undoing every single lie she has ever told. Thank you to @LateNightDelights from the @TreasureCommunity for the cover!

Imagine living a full life, dying months after your beloved wife passes and being buried. Only to wake up 300 years later, called out of the grave to fight a final war against an alien invasion. Join Max Niekro, formerly living and now Risen as he deals with this reality as the forces of Earth, both living and dead, are marshalled in a last ditch effort to save the world. **cover by hellvis

Max Niekro, the undead juggernaut that brought the Risen into space to war against Earth's enemies, is gone. Left behind are the tattered remnants of the once-mighty force that defeated the Velkin and brought the Vanguard of the Blood to its knees, staring across the Abyss at two old foes that have raised their heads to focus their malevolence on Earth once more. Can Max's neo-shell clone, Two take up the reins that his progenitor carried and lead the Risen once more to victory? Or will two universes burn as a mad god and a K'ethik swarm try to consume the universe whole?

BOOK ONE OF THE FADING EMBERS SERIES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "The embers fade, and the Day of the Lightless shall be upon us." For the longest time, a lonely continent shrouded by Mist was all the nine races of Jordarys ever knew. They knew the Mist was to be feared. Those who were swallowed by the Mist were never seen again. The Mist birthed terrible monsters that rose from the seas, plaguing their land. The gods bestowed the inhabitants of Jordarys with a gift, the Primeval Flames, to fight the scourge of the Mist for as long as they have. However, the flames are dwindling. The inevitable day where the embers sputter and die is encroaching upon them with every rising and setting of the sun. When that day comes, the Mist shall swallow this last remaining bastion of the world whole. Not all would stand idle as the storm brews. The fate of Jordarys teeters perilously in the balance as everyone, from monarchs to assassins to scholars and warriors, fights for their survival. "For only the heir of cinders will inherit the world when the embers finally fade." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- A collaboration between VeryBigMess and @Fiona_jessie.
