Come Home, to where the Darkest Burning Pyre resides.
Come Home, to where the Pyre's blaze guts the Abusers.
Come Home, to where the Pyre incinerates what remains.
Come Home, to where you belong.
The year is 2035. It has been roughly two years since the Advent Virus infected every human on Earth. Most are asymptomatic carriers-they display no symptoms and are unhurt by the virus. Variants, on the other hand, are genetically enhanced by the virus and given almost supernatural abilities, previously considered to be only possible in comic books or cartoons. Meanwhile, a large minority of the world's population is ruthlessly killed by the virus, falling into comas and passing away.
Alex Westsmith was abused as a child, alongside his younger brother, and his mother, at the hands of his father. The legal system failed Alex and his family, over and over, again and again. So, the teenager, armed with his Variant abilities, does what he must, scouring the city by night, hunting and killing those who abuse others. As the vigilante Pyre, alongside his best friend and computer hacker, Richard Caperno--who operates under the alias Reforger-Alex fights for those who would otherwise fall through the cracks of society.
But when a ruthless new faction of radicals and terrorists abducts one of their classmates, will the Variant vigilante and his hacker ally be able to save her? Or will he have to helplessly watch abuse go unpunished yet again?

I never wanted a war. All I wanted to do was to get things back to the way they were and to keep those I love safe. But it turns out that everything was just an illusion, that the reality I lived in was
all but a lie. That world was no place to live, and in order to make a better future, a future that so many have sacrificed so much to try and archive before me, I had to fight.
And to do that I needed to find out the truth, no matter what horrors lie beneath it. The web of lies, of secrecy, of betrayal, is spun so far, so fine, so wide that I had been seeing only a corner of it. I didn't know if I have the strength to go on, but I know that if I don't step up, the world as we have known it will end.
If you asked her four years ago what she imagined herself doing in the future, Abigail
Beckett could safely tell you that it doesn't involve political meetings, living
in an ancient castle and seeking advice from a three hundred years old
Original. Having discovered her roots, she had inherited the responsibility to
make sure the world doesn't end by the terrorist group Apocalypse and make
peace among POE and Legres. With the fate of many of her friends still
uncertain, she must race against time to uncover the Apocalypse's plan, pacify
the government, and tried not to get killed by her grandmother.
