**Previously Featured in Wattpad Picks, Undiscovered for now.** Earth. Two hundred years after the fall of civilization, the remains of mankind have divided into two groups: those that wish to carry on some sense of civilization live inside one of the great Walled Cities, while others prefer to live outside these cities in the vast wilds. Compared to these wilds, the Walled Cities is a sanctuary for polite society. Seventeen year old Z is one of these outsiders. Due to his heritage and choice to live outside the Walled Cities, he is seen as untrustworthy by many. All he wants is to help his sister in law, his brother and their two children, survive and run the small farm they live on. To do this he hunts and traps the wild animals that roam the wilderness, and sells their skins to the merchants of the Walled Cities. They are the only ones who have the money and supplies his family needs to survive each year. Without them or the cities and ports, his life would come to a grinding halt. Z has always tried to respect the laws and customs of the Walled Cities, but an encounter with a guard goes horribly wrong. Fleeing from the city and one of the few men who trusted him, Z encounters a stranger under unique circumstances. He and the stranger will have to work together as Z knows the stranger will not survive alone, and he will have need of their talents soon. Between them, they will undertake some of the hardest trials the world has to throw at them. Lives will be lost, cities will crumble, and Z will have to make the hardest decision of his life. #754 in Science Fiction 10/17/17 #571 in Science Fiction 10/19/17 #434 in Science Fiction 11/13/17 #347 in Science Fiction 11/19/17 #203 in Science Fiction 1/24/18 #158 in Science Fiction 1/26/18 #142 in Science Fiction 2/6/18 #123 in Science Fiction 2/9/18 #59 in Science Fiction 2/22/18 #50 in Science Fiction 5/7/20 First published in October 2017 Images used are not mine, Copyrights belong to respective artists.

Asta was special, he always knew it. They say he has no magic yet he could do curses. The curses weren't very strong he had found them in some old book while he was bored. He never expected to them to work. Especially not to get a grimoire filled with the brim of curses he never heard of.

A collection of reviews/rants about the Wattpad books I read. I like to keep records of the books I read. Goodreads helps doing it for published books. And Wattpad books are as good as them. So here, I'm going to write my heart out about almost every Wattpad book I read. Some books & characters are more than just fictional things to me. I just want to write what I felt while reading something. I want to treasure all those feelings I get after reading a book somewhere. This book is going to be just that place.
