Out of the Shadows
Alexandra Dalton lives in a crumbling post-apocalyptic wasteland ruled by The Enforcement and terrorized by the Legacies, power-wielding humans corrupted by their abilities. But when a deadly encounter thrusts her into the heart of a war for humanity's survival, secrets of her father's past begin to surface, forcing her to choose: fight for the light or be consumed by the darkness. In a world where entire cities can burn in minutes, and nobody can truly be trusted, can she protect her mother and sister-and uncover the truth before it's too late? Excerpt: "Dad?" My voice was no more than a whisper. The tendril caught the woman just as she was about to hit the ground, and in one harsh movement, it tugged her into the darkness. The blackness engulfed her screams, swallowing them completely. I could feel my father pulling on my wrist. His grip was so tight it hurt. Everywhere around me, people were dying. Their shrieks echoed in my ears, and I couldn't seem to move. My hands started to shake as I looked toward the dark sky. The silhouettes of bodies in the air, lit eerily by the theme park's neon colors, littered the sky like stars. This wasn't just chaos-it was the end of everything we knew. Chapters released weekly!
Awaken Into a New World Book 1 (Edited)
From the void of space, a ship appears. . . with only one purpose-to wipe out all the inhabitants off the face of the planet. Decades later, a young woman, Alecia, with her memory wiped, wakes up into a world she knows little about-except that it is now a husk of its former self. She ventures forth, unaware of the dangers that lay ahead. Very soon she finds out she's not like any human being. With her vulnerable mind, she possesses abnormal abilities not known to her. Not knowing how to tap into it. Not knowing if it can be controlled, she can only hope that it doesn't consume her. Alecia meets new individuals. Some are friends; some are enemies. While she learns little by little the mystery of her past, she finds herself drowned in need of knowing her origins. . . but it seems that the unknown is much more terrifying than she has ever imagined. -- • 1st Place Winner of Tree Awards 2018 • Best Rank in Survival #15 [10/05/2018] • Best Rank in Science Fiction #166 [21/05/2018] - Big thanks to @renesmeewolfe for my previous book cover.

Beneath the Shadowlanders
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.Завершенная история

How do we break free from the web of fate? Adrian Blackwood, an orphan, was transported at the age of six to a "parallel world," where he found himself embraced by a warm and loving family of five.
