Alvera lives in a utopian world, one unlike the one we are accustom to. In her world, there are monsters. Creatures. Ravenous and without sympathy. But these monsters were all once human... A disease spread unlike any other, one they called Imogoliadide. Causing anyone infected and deceased, to turn into one of them in a weeks time. That is the cause of this utopia, and how its been for hundreds of years. The only thing to protect them was a dwindling wall that desperately needed repair. When the richer classmen call upon her and another boy from her district, one from the poorest district in one of the most poverty ridden unit, to come forth and train to fight and kill infected humans, what will she do? Obey these powerful rich folk, entertain them, and inevitably die for them. Or would she rebel, escape, and fight for what she wanted to fight for. She honestly has no clue.

Monster

"Beware that when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster...For when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you." -Nietzsche *** "I now have a heart strong enough to withstand pain. And a mind strong enough to save myself. In answer to my wish, I have the heart of a monster." *** HE WANTS TO DO THE RIGHT THING: FIGHT EVIL. BUT WHAT IF HE CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHICH SIDE TO FIGHT FOR? Sordlen has lived in peace for two decades, until the sorceress Mara awakens. Being declared a monster, she has chosen to live up to her name. Will she be be able to rise above her villainous desires or remain the monster everyone tells her she is? Unable to fight against Mara's enchantments, Jack finds himself betraying his own village for a cause he doesn't fully understand. He becomes torn between whose cause to fight for. The one thing that keeps him fighting to do the right thing is his fiancé Sylvie. But what is the right thing? When Sordlen is attacked, Sylvie is forced to flee to the nearby city of Eram along with Liam, her newly appointed guardian. When Jack never rejoins them, she assumes the worst-that he had been killed. When they are finally reunited months later, she discovers his fate to be worse than imagined: he hadn't been killed; he was the reason others had been. In the midst of a looming war, Jack must discover where his loyalties lie, before he loses the chance to be a part of either side. What had begun as an honest quest to help Mara find her heart has turned into a struggle for Jack to maintain his honor as the ultimate traitor while deciding what he believes in. As Jack begins to realize Mara may have been unfairly branded a monster, he questions he may be on the wrong side. Monster is a tale that delves into the nature of good and evil. What decides who is the hero and who is the villain?
