The world has ended, and Bunny Graves treats survival like a deadly game where winning means destroying everything. She operates with feral instincts in a landscape of chaos. Meanwhile, Max Caspar teams up with Charmskool, a scholar tracking ancient myths that have broken into reality. Their research leads them through a world where legends have become dangerous truths. Ari Regon finds herself trapped between two forces: a jealousy that could kill and a love that consumes her. Corporate warfare rages around her while her ambition reaches levels where failure means death. She plans the ultimate celebration, a party designed to never stop. These three storylines converge in a world where darkness has taken hold. The characters navigate corporate battles, mythological threats, and personal demons. Each faces choices that will determine not just their survival, but what remains of civilization itself.
