"We require a different battlefield." Nobody expected the war to last three hours, let alone three years. The star system of Archangel holds the line against invading corporate fleets, but a quarter of its territory is already lost. The navy can't hang on much longer. Faced with this grim truth, Archangel's leaders shift their strategy to diplomacy and espionage. For both arenas, they call upon a reluctant weapon: a frontline grunt named Tanner Malone. These days Tanner doesn't aspire to win the war.

High school senior Tanner Malone has bombed the Test, a high-stakes exam that establishes how much he owes for his corporate-funded education. Burdened by a crushing debt that rules out college, Tanner enlists in the navy of Archangel, a star system with four terraformed worlds. But he hasn't factored in the space pirates.

What grows in the silence after power falls? Seryth was never meant to carry the Hollow’s voice. Raised by the Rite to obey, not question, she only knew two things: keep her head down—and survive. But when an ancient force stirs beneath the roots of a dying world, Seryth becomes the unlikeliest seed of rebellion: not with fire, but with breath. Not with blades, but with memory. Haunted by forgotten rites and hunted by the very order that once shaped her, Seryth’s path leads deep into the moss-veined catacombs of Lirien’s Reach.

Mara Keaton receives a message that describes her next action before she takes it. At first, the accuracy feels impossible. Then the consequences begin to surface. Missed opportunities. Quiet delays. Decisions rerouted without explanation. Nothing overt. Nothing illegal. Just friction applied at exactly the right moments to guide behavior without force. As Mara tests the edges of the system, she discovers it doesn’t need surveillance, threats, or control. It relies on patterns people repeat when they believe nothing is at stake and it quietly prices their futures accordingly.

Tanner Malone is starting to enjoy his navy post in the honor guard. After surviving violent conflicts with space pirates in the void, he hopes to stay out of the stars for a while. But when the government of Archangel, a prosperous Union state including four terraformed worlds, makes a dangerous decision to defy the Big Three's corporate dominance, war threatens the galaxy.

Science has stolen sleep and awakened a world of horror. “I’ve been an insomniac all of my life, but I’m not Sleepless and I won’t become Sleepless, just as long as the chips that were put into their heads never get put into mine. There’s little chance of that, since I won’t put the...

In a forgotten valley where the river never stops whispering, the house called Thornevale still breathes. Once, it belonged to June West — a servant who fell in love with the house's cursed master, Thorne, and with the river that bound them both. When betrayal and longing tore the living from the dead, the house learned to keep what it loved. Now, years later, the floodwaters rise again, carrying echoes of a love that refused to die. When the villagers begin hearing bells tolling beneath the water, they speak of the Keeper, a spirit who remembers too much. But June is no ghost.

The forest crowned her. The thorns obey her. But power never comes without sacrifice. Seryth has survived the Hollow—but not unscathed. No longer the voiceless girl feared and forgotten, she now wears the thorns of a sovereign bound to a land that hungers for blood and memory. Magic seeps through her veins like sap, ancient and wild, reshaping not just her fate but the balance of power across a crumbling kingdom. But claiming a crown is not the same as keeping it. Old enemies stir beneath sacred roots. The Order that once hunted her now seeks to control her.

In the aftermath of the Sovereign’s fall, Seryth wears the Hollow’s crown—a living relic of root and light that ties her to the land’s oldest power. But the ember that nearly consumed the realm still breathes deep beneath the roots, and its hunger has only grown. When the pale tree at the basin begins to burn from within, Seryth is drawn into a final confrontation with a force that cannot be killed, only contained. To seal the ember, she must stand against the Heartflame—an ancient, burning will given form—and risk binding it through herself.

When nineteen-year-old Elara returns to her grandmother’s ridge house in the Appalachian hollow, she finds more than heirlooms waiting. A sycamore tree as pale as bone stands watch, a cracked pocket watch stops at 10:17 each day, and a ledger filled with rules whispers what it costs to live here: Kin before names. Bread before bargains. Never pay in leaving. The hollow keeps storms, secrets, and sometimes people. If you feed it heels of bread and speak plain, it will mind its side of the fence.

In a world held together by a fragile lattice of ancient magic, darkness stirs beneath the surface—an unstoppable tide led by the Hollow King, a merciless force bent on unraveling all that binds the realm. Seryth, the last Binder, wields a glowing shard that holds the key to preserving the lattice and the world itself. Torn between the weight of her destiny and the sacrifices it demands, she must rally fractured allies, bind ancient powers, and stand against a rising storm of shadow and fire.

She never planned for him.

The sea remembers every secret—and it’s coming to collect. Seryth has weathered blood and shadow, betrayal and fire. But when the tides rise bearing whispers from a drowned kingdom, she’s forced to confront a truth older than the Hollow itself. The crown she thought she’d escaped now lies in the hands of an enemy who wears her face in the dark, and the ocean’s pull is more than a call—it’s a demand. Allies fracture. Loyalties rot. And somewhere in the depths, an ancient power stirs, promising salvation or ruin.

Beneath the Kingdom’s fractured crown, something ancient is waking. When Seryth is dragged into the depths of a dying realm, she discovers a world built on gold-veined stone and whispered bargains—where the light is dwindling and the shadows have teeth. To escape, she must carry a shard of that fading light back to the surface… but the deep does not release its prey so easily. Pursued by faceless hunters and bound to two uneasy allies—a soldier with blood on his hands and a chain-wielding outlaw with debts to settle—Seryth emerges to find her homeland transformed. Villages lie abandoned.
