U niziji gde se magla ne diže, a humke kriju više mrtvih nego što iko želi da prizna, mir je samo tišina koja prethodi novom krvarenju. Viktor Holvehor stiže u Varknot kao izaslanik Imperije. Poslat je da istraži niz ubistava koja mirišu na staru veru, pobunu i nešto mnogo starije od jednog ljudskog života. Daleko od Varknota, u prestonom Irvengaru, čovek bez prošlosti trguje ucenjenim životima i sluša ponude čiju cenu ne mora niko da mu objašnjava. Nosi sekiru kakvu više niko ne ume da napravi, oči boje leda i pogled koji se, kad god zastane, vraća prema planinama kojih iz prestonice ne bi trebalo ni da se seća. Mera Pepela je mračna fantasy priča o ljudima koji su izgubili veru u iskupljenje, ali ne i potrebu da ga pronađu - kroz laž, osvetu, krivicu i povratak domu koji možda više ne postoji.

In the magitech capital of Tan'thalon, strength is spectacle-and survival is never guaranteed. When young noble Talia Surifarah sneaks beyond the safety of her station, she witnesses a living legend: the Diviner, a blind arena champion whose mastery of earth and combat defies all reason. But the city's wonders hide brutal truths. As deserts creep closer, swallowing towns without explanation, Talia learns that power alone cannot stop what is coming. Attacked in Tan'thalon's rain-soaked alleys and pushed to the brink, she is saved by the Diviner herself-an elementalist whose discipline and instinct eclipse everything Talia has been taught. Bound by duty, shadowed by a controlling guardian, and driven by a world on the edge of ruin, Talia must choose who she will become. A sheltered paladin of noble blood... or something more. The sands are moving. Legends walk unseen. And the first step toward destiny is learning how to stand.

The city of Riddlewood runs on Vitaeon-a glowing, volatile energy source extracted from deep beneath the cobblestones. But ever since Detective Sheridan Cavendish exposed the dark origins of his city's power grid, the static has entered his blood. Sheridan is fading. Suffused with raw energy, his body has begun to phase, losing physical density and drifting out of alignment with reality. To keep Sheridan from dissolving into pure light, his partner, the brilliant engineer Finch, builds the Stability Anchor-a chest-mounted bio-frequency dampener fused directly over Sheridan's heart. But physical instability is the least of their worries. Across Riddlewood, ghost-like "Temporal Echoes" are erupting from streetlamps and factory floors, projecting violent, long-buried memories of the city's past onto the sky. Behind the madness is Professor Tesseract, a radical visionary who has hijacked the central Clockworks Tower. Tesseract isn't just trying to reveal the truth-he is tuning the city's grid to a lethal cardiac frequency designed to stop the heart of every citizen in Riddlewood. To save the city, Sheridan must make the ultimate sacrifice: unlatch his anchor, plunge his mind directly into the roaring energy stream, and rewrite the city's pulse from the inside out. Ether-noir atmosphere meets biopunk body horror in this thrilling sequel about inherited guilt, corporate corruption, and the terrifying cost of truth.

In an immortal Roman Empire where fading means erasure from living memory, Reaper Aquila is a man obsessed with remembering. Numb, exhausted, and running from a past he relives through fractured memories of those he loved, he prays his own impending fade will grant him blissful oblivion. His final task seems simple: resolve the lingering attachments of a group of immortals who have lived far too long. He doesn't expect Valeria, who instantly sees him for who he is behind the reaper and meets him with a warmth that pierces his frigid exterior. Though left with a crippling injury after being caught in the crossfire of the empire's shadowy underworld, Valeria's radiant and unbroken spirit defies the darkness - and makes him question if fading will truly free him. When they discover a sinister device that can remove an immortal's right to fade, Aquila must confront the remnants of his tragic past and use his connections throughout the empire to uncover the one behind it all. But with a love he never thought he'd find and an uncertain path ahead, Aquila must choose between his long-awaited fading or chasing his newfound feelings. A paranormal sci-fi story with slow burn romance, set in an empire with emerging steam technology and advanced biomedical engineering.

(It is highly recommended to read "Alterra: Foreign Eden" before this, as certain characters and events may carry over or be mentioned in passing.) Kusunoki Sakuta has one of the strangest job descriptions: travel to an alternate world, evaluate the highly advanced androids running Alterra Robotics' regional operations, and ensure nothing catastrophic happens on his watch. He's been reasonably successful at the first two. The third remains a work in progress. His latest assignment takes him to Florienne, the most refined, most culturally prestigious, and most quietly treacherous nation in western Caelum. A country built on centuries of aristocratic tradition, it runs on image, reputation, and the kind of social architecture where the most dangerous moves are the ones that never look like moves at all. At its heart sits Fleurdelis, the elegant enclave city administered by Réseau Iris, Alterra's fifth subsidiary. Officially, a media and broadcast conglomerate. What lies beneath that official face is exactly why Sakuta is here. But Fleurdelis reveals itself slowly, and what it reveals is not reassuring. Behind the gaslit boulevards and high-society events, something darker has taken root: occult undercurrents the city's authorities have never fully managed to suppress, dangerous influence flowing through channels that appear on no official record, and a growing suspicion that Réseau Iris is not simply a corporation embedded in Florienne, but something threaded through the city at a depth that goes well beyond legitimate business.

The princess is a sham. Everyone knows it. The gods have abandoned them. The royal family was the only connection to the gods until the usurper killed them. After overtaking him, the five surviving sorcerers reconnected the realm and brought security to it. Decades later, the Council has decreed his ways forbidden and anyone who attempts to learn them will be put to the sword. Genevieve Renwyck has one goal. The undercity trinketer has almost enough money to travel districts and find her siblings, but she's delayed by an assassination attempt against Princess Astherin. After being recruited to join the sorcery academy, she aims to distinguish herself and get access to all the perks that come with the job. That means joining the secret missions to the rebelling southern districts who sought the old ways and stop them before they gather support. As Genevieve discovers the ways of sorcery, she questions what her role will be, and if everything is as simple as she's told. Cover and banners by @Farleykins.
