"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."
