The world had changed since "The Coming". It is now an arid desolate place where technology and society failed. A world where each rain drop and even each breath taken could kill, slowly.
Each day is a struggle for survival against the Aspects roaming the barren lands feeding on themselves and on people. Mankind has not been on the top of the food chain for centuries and is constantly on the brink of extinction. 
For Io, this world is all she had ever known. For the red-eyed hunter the survival of the Den is all that matters. However; when she abandons the Den pursued by her legacy, the Den's power-hungry elder and her own mind, she takes the path to exile and to the truth. But when she finally faces her fate she may have to realise that the Aspects are not her only worries. There are things in motion that she can't possibly know but If she manages to stay alive for a while, she may get the chance to learn that the coming was only the beginning...

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.

(This is book 3 of the P.O.E. Chronicles, Read book 1 Evolution and book 2 Selection if you haven't already) 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.

Born from E.D.E.N.'s most ambitious experiment and abandoned just as quickly, Ellie is the girl whispered about in locked rooms and classified files-the mistake too powerful to control, the anomaly that terrifies even the people who created her. After a lifetime of confinement, Ellie escapes into a world she was taught to fear, only to discover it's nothing like the sterile halls she grew up in. With Ava, Mia, Noah, and Liam-kids just as broken, brilliant, and dangerous as she is-Ellie begins to unravel the truth behind the experiments that stole their childhoods. But E.D.E.N. isn't done with them. Hunted by the Governor and the adults who shaped them, manipulated by shadows wearing familiar faces, and haunted by the dark promise Henry whispers about destroying E.D.E.N. together, Ellie is forced into a deadly game of survival where trust is a luxury and power is a curse. As her abilities grow-and her memories return-Ellie must face the truth buried in her bloodline: She wasn't created to save the world. She was created to end it.
