The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls.

This is his testament, an account of the journey that took him into the blazing desolation of the western deserts and into the labyrinths and caverns of the underworld.

He'll face monsters and cultists alike as he fights for his right to not be skinned alive in a world full of people who desperately want to do just that.

With Erryn having sacrificed herself to save those lost in the disaster of the Emerald Caverns, it falls to an of-age Peter to take action when new reincarnates are born. Unfortunately, without control of the System or the Law, there is little he can do to halt the contingencies Erryn left behind, leaving him to search desperately for a solution.

Lucifer launches an attack against mankind by summoning the most notorious murderers of all time to return to earth from hell to take possession of some of the lost people of the world. These evil entities range from the first murderers of the world - Cain, Jack the Ripper, the Zodiac Killer, John Wayne Gacy, Albert Fish, and the Führer Hitler - along with Colin Dunhart, whom the city of New York called the "Carnivore". These evil entities are able to manipulate the flesh of the people they take possession of and become who they once were.

With the mana-sucking rifts inscrutable to System skills, those Erryn tasked with watching over the world in her absence seek help from the one person in the world able to utilize magic without System interference: Peter's younger brother. It doesn't take long for Peter to link the anomalies with Earth, giving him his first clue to the cause of his reincarnation.

Or worse, how much he can share given the interference of the Law.

We thought we’d prepared for the fight. We were wrong. Everything I was told about the first soul mates could never prepare me for their actual arrival. More powerful than we could prepare for, the first soul mates control the minds of our closest allies, leaving The Six and my soul mate without any option but to surrender to their murderous ways. When suicides and disappearances go on the rise in our community, I know the first soul mates are behind it, and when I discover the reason, it’s more nightmarish than I could have imagined.

Survivors of a post-apocalyptic disaster narrowly escape a man-made utopia only to discover the real horror has just begun. Fighting off uncontrollable rage caused by a drug intended to create super warriors, they’re pursued by a megalomaniac government gone mad. Giant deadly insects; savage, opportunistic tribes; and their own inner demons propel them to want to kill themselves and each other.

Clinging to life, two post-apocalyptic disaster survivors are rescued from a chaotic and violent struggle on the East Coast of Canada. Believing they're safe, they are precipitously quarantined on a ship by the government, watched 24/7, and poked and prodded like laboratory animals. Nathan King is assured by chemical biologist Stan Imes that the injections are merely anti-radiation medication, and the quarantine is necessary to insure they aren't infected by a rage virus that has turned much of the population into frenzied, frothing killer zombies.

Nathan King wakes up one day, freezing cold and starving with hunger, on a tattered mattress in a dark cave. He has no idea where or who he is.

Slowly, the realization sinks in that in this horrific post-apocalyptic landscape, there are no rules, no laws.

Now aged seven and on the cusp of a class change, Peter desires to live a quiet life in his home village until he comes of age. Unfortunately, Erryn, desiring access to his thoughts and memories, has other plans. When a routine trip to the forest almost turns deadly, Peter ends up where no child is supposed to be: hunting monsters in the town dungeon.

There was a mistake, an error. No king ordered his summoning to battle a demon lord. No god sent him to save the world from destruction. In fact, the closest thing this world has to a god would have been very upset at his presence. Fortunately for him, by the time she noticed, it was too late to interfere. A soul had fallen into the world that did not belong there. A soul not bound by the Law of the world. A soul that was free.

After escaping a worldwide apocalyptic plague that transformed most of humanity into flesh-eating monsters, Trinity found sanctuary with a band of roving gypsies who possessed incredible powers, the likes of which she'd never seen before. After a brutal attack on camp and a life changing transformation she'd never seen coming, the clan abandoned her; left her alone in a world where the only thing certain is death.

These are the stories of the lost - their journeys through a world where devastation knows no boundaries, where enemies await them at every turn, and where heartache, loss, and death supersede happiness, peace, and love - and the destiny that awaits them all.
