In the desolate world of Veridia, survival is a relentless battle. The powerful Citadel, a fortress that rules over the scattered city-states, demands the best and brightest youths to compete in the Trials of Echoes-a brutal series of challenges designed to select the strongest warriors to defend against the monstrous Reavers that plague the land. Refusing to compete means certain death on the Frontlines, where survival is a grim and distant hope.

Evan Crest, a 16-year-old from the scholarly city-state of Lyria, enters the Citadel Academy with one goal: to win the Trials and secure a future for his family, who have been living in poverty since his father's death. But the Trials are more dangerous than he ever imagined, and his greatest obstacle is Daelis Fenn-a ruthless 17-year-old prodigy from the warrior city-state of Draven, whose tragic past fuels his relentless pursuit of victory.

As the Trials progress, Evan and Daelis's rivalry grows fiercer, each encounter testing their physical and mental limits. But when a deadly secret about the Citadel is uncovered, they are forced to put aside their differences and confront a truth that could shake the foundations of Veridia.

In a world where love is a luxury and trust is a dangerous gamble, Evan and Daelis must navigate treacherous alliances, deadly enemies, and their own growing feelings for each other. Together, they must decide whether to fight for their survival or for a future they never dared to dream of.

"Revenant" is the first installment of The Evan Crest Chronicles, a tale of power, deception, and a slow-burning romance set against the backdrop of a dystopian world on the brink of revolution.

[BOOK 2] This is a continuation of the first novel, and it is recommended that you read Return of the Demon Sovereign: Udanfold [MxM] before starting this one. •••• In the aftermath of their tireless wars against the Devils in the depths of Undanfold, Erebus and Leo find themselves in the realm of Halrland. As they navigate this new terrain, their enemies draw ever closer, their relentless pursuit threatening to unravel the fragile peace they've fought so hard to obtain. Erebus, haunted by the memories of his past as the Demon Sovereign, is in a constant battle to keep his identity hidden. The revelation of his true self would not only endanger his life but also the lives of those who stand by him. His inner turmoil is further complicated by the presence of Jericho and Kore and their plots to destroy Shadowbane. However, they must also face the greatest threat to the realms: the Titans. Their awakening could engulf the realms in chaos and destruction. Erebus and Leo must find a way to thwart Jericho and Kore's schemes while preparing for the imminent threat of the Titans. In Halrland, alliances will be tested, secrets will be unveiled, and the battle for survival will reach new heights.

Genre: Fantasy|Action|MxM Trigger Warning: This novel contains fighting, blood, death, gore, and torture. It also contains mature language and scenes. Although this will have romance, it will not be the primary focus of the novel. I love Erebus and Leo (don't get me wrong), but I may love vengeance a little more.
