Everything that was anything to Vanessa Pheros's new beginning has torn itself apart from under her own feet. Broken, defeated, and lost, she abandons the few who expressed belief in the good she had unintentionally done for the new world; leaving them behind to seek the life she needed. The Deserted have recovered their memories from the secretly twisted corporation, restoring the brain-drained hundreds from devolved savages to rebels with a cause - ready to reunite with the families that they'd been taken from. Forced to remain underground by the Regulators and fear-driven citizens who refuse to accept Menta-Life's involvement, they are backed into taking action with Van's team at their side.
Regulator Officers, Robotic Forces, Equility, the mysterious entourage of genetically altered superhumans, and a newly emerged government force believed to no longer exist are all standing in their way. In order to give the Deserted a safe haven to call their own and give them their lives back, they'll have to fight for it. Chaos is the only solution and the only thing that Vanessa's in the mood for that will bring humanity's false savior to its knees. Continue the dystopian tale with our heroic misfits in its most action-packed adventure yet.

phantom cure
In a world forever changed by the catastrophic "Metal Storm" six years ago, humanity stands divided between those who wield incredible powers gifted by a mysterious cure and those who don't. The cure, originally created to save children from a deadly virus, granted extraordinary abilities to survivors-powers that became the key to defending the planet from the relentless assault of colossal mechs. Yuki, an orphan with no powers and no memories of the attack that claimed millions, struggles to find his place at the Academy-a fortress-like institution training the next generation of power-wielders, mech pilots, and engineers. Haunted by recurring dreams of a ruined city and a towering mech, Ren is driven to uncover the truth behind his past and why he alone remains unchanged. As he navigates the harsh hierarchies of the Academy, clashes with powerful rivals, and bonds with unlikely allies, Ren begins to unravel secrets that could alter humanity's fate. What he discovers will force him to confront not only his own identity but the origins of the cure itself and the hidden truths of the Metal Storm. A tale of courage, friendship, and mystery, Phantom Cure explores what it truly means to be human in a world on the brink of destruction.*
