"I hate my sister. I hate how she took away everything from me. In this world that has ended, all I know is that it's all her fault."

It will take a while. It will take everything from him. It will bring nothing but pain. It is living a lie, the lie of living. Sawyer, as headstrong as he is, must endure the hardships of living in a world that his sister steadily reined to a path of destruction. Bloodthirsty monsters, fearsome gangs, and desperate lunatics roam the barren wastelands; but the worst enemy to his well-being is closer than everything else.

Will Sawyer be able to survive? Can he resist the inner workings of his impulses? Will he be able to save everyone he loves?

Can he save himself?

Lies, abuse, mindless violence, and betrayal - this is a tale of bleak but epic proportions, that will serve as the springboard of a series of short novellas called The Legend of Everend.

"She may have killed my world, but my determination to live burns stronger still."

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

"I've been a fool, Clover. Such a damn fool. I thought I could bury my feelings for you, pretend they didn't exist, but I was wrong. So damn wrong."

Stronger and stronger until I can't ignore it anymore. I'm in love with you, Clover. So damn in love with you." His voice is thick with emotion, tears threatening to spill down his face. "I don't know how it happened, or when it happened, but it did. And I tried to fight it, I tried to convince myself that I didn't love you, but I was lying. To myself, and to you." He looks at her unconscious form, imagining her sparkling eyes and warm smile. "I miss you so much, Clover. I miss hearing your voice, seeing your face, feeling your touch. I miss fighting with you, making up with you, just being with you... I never realized how lonely I was before you came into my life. How empty and meaningless my days were.

Now, he attempts to find his life's purpose, coming across many friends as well as enemies, many obstacles, great pain, deep love, and important life lessons. It's up to him to decide whether or not he's the one in control of his own life. !!!CAUTION!!! IF YOU ARE ONE TO READ BOOKS BY THE LAST CHAPTER TO SEE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, CHAPTERS TOWARD THE END OF THIS BOOK CONTAIN HUGE SPOILERS THAT MAY RUIN OR ALTER THE DESIRED EXPERIENCE AND ENJOYMENT AND IF YOU STILL WISH TO READ THE LAST CHAPTER I SUGGEST CHAPTER 53! Info of my writing style and this book: • This book is written from the first-person point of view. Everything he thinks about; everything you read, will be the exact moment of everything that's happening. When Nathaniel gets cut off and interrupted, his thoughts will be interrupted as well. • I'll put seven periods to indicate a change in the scene; to show that time has passed since the last scene. • Bolded names are important characters to Nathaniel and the story • This book contains vulgar and sometimes erotic descriptive language. • This book is targeted toward a young adult audience.
