When Michael learned of his friend Jack's death, the last thing on his mind was fighting for his own life, but when Jack's voice called him outside his apartment building, his reality began to shatter. Transported into a fantasy world that Jack had already been revived into and saved from a demonic menace, Michael will face off in a head-to-head death game with friends and acquaintances to determine who among them was the most fit to join Jack in challenging the very heavens above. In this new environment, whether they wanted to or not, it seemed it was kill or be killed.

The darkness within us all sometimes intimidates us, and we can all but hide inside closets where our masks and skeletons dance.Complete

Shadows of Fate
SHADOWS OF FATE She studies suffering like a science. He was born to destroy worlds. The universe decided they were each other's problem. Wednesday Santora is Woe made flesh - a Child of Fate who catalogs misery with academic precision and a straight razor that opens doors between realities. Francesco is a Black Spiral Dancer who ate a Technocracy kill-squad for breakfast and called it a networking event. When a demon frames Wednesday for leveling Chicago, the only thing standing between her and the assembled wrath of every faction in the dark is a wolf who finds her professionally fascinating. That's the problem. Days of Fate, not Days of Choice. Every move they think they're making was already written.

It just pulls. Content: Dark fantasy, World of Darkness setting, morally complex characters, slow burn that burns the whole building down, no redemption arcs because nobody here needs redeeming - they need to be exactly what they are. "All our days have come. All our days have gone."Complete
