Sins of the Wasteland is a series of standalone tales, each plunging into the lives of characters bound by fate to Ashurah's unforgiving desert, yet together weaving a larger tapestry of interconnected destinies. Across these volumes, heroes and anti-heroes emerge-vengeful bounty hunters, ancient mages, tyrants, and outcasts-all struggling to survive in a land marked by past wars and dark secrets buried in the sands.

Each book delves into its own distinct storyline, from Jair's relentless quest for vengeance, to Kade McGraw's battles with outlawed magic and corrupted relics, to the ethereal judgment of the seraph Jibril. While each stands alone, threads of fate and history bind them together, revealing how the choices of one character ripple through time to shape the futures of others. As past and present intertwine, a deeper mystery unfolds, leaving readers to uncover how these stories-seemingly separate-reveal the desert's ultimate truth: in Ashurah, no fate is truly isolated, and the sands remember everything.
