• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A desperate team prepares to venture into the small town wasteland of Downtown. Everything they carry will draw deadly attention, and the unknowable Shadow Beings could transform them into the very monsters they've fought for 15 years.

In this second collection, episodes 7-13, as Chief Elder Jerry subverts the village's vote to launch a suicide mission, they must trust their lives to Biancaa partially-cured tainted whose very presence disrupts the shamans' magic.

She revisits memories of the tainted pack that tore off her arm for sport, and the risks she took leaving Downtown and finding the shamans, hiding in secret from the village. She warns them that the waters run gray, spreading unnatural desolation.

Rossi struggles with romantic complications with scout Corvin, and leadership disputes with the hostile guard Stina. With chemical fire their only defense, and a distant Crystal Being offering cryptic aid from across the multiverse, darkness itself has become their unlikely ally. Tensions build to a breaking point both between team members and with the village they seek to protect.

For fans of post-apocalyptic hopepunk and supernatural fantasy, this ongoing series is a must-read. If you enjoyed "Station Eleven" or "Sweet Tooth," then you'll love this character-driven saga of found family and long lost friends enduring wasteland survival with "Practical Magic" style witchcraft.

Autorenporträt

Writing is almost like putting together a puzzle, only it's more like taking a bunch of old family home movies, photographs, scrapbooks, and a dollhouse, and splicing them together, digitally retouching and altering them, dubbing in celebrity voices, and hand-writing the credits until you've made them into a major motion picture.

I am a writer and occasionally artist of various types of speculative fiction but mostly modern fantasy. I have loved magic, and the people and creatures who live with it and use it, all my life, and writing and drawing these people in modern environments makes it all the more real to me. I am forever striving to rise above the mundane and surround myself with wonderful people and things. My body resides in Arizona, with cat spirits, mesquite trees, and a man who is rumored to also be a dragon.
