Book Description
Heroes may rise, but all will fall, in this western-inspired post-apocalyptic science fiction series—now presented in one 3-volume collection! “Feels like the result of tossing Mad Max, Neuromancer and Metal Gear Solid into a blender.” —Anthony Burch, writer for Borderlands 2 Three: The world has collapsed, and there are no heroes anymore. The cyber-dead, zombie-like Weir have overwhelmed civilization, and its survivors cling to fragile oases. A traveling gun for hire, named Three, agrees to protect a sick woman on the run with her young son. When they set out to discover a mythical safe zone, they must survive the forces that pursue them—the creatures of the dark—and uncover something truly remarkable. Morningside Fall: In the devastated settlement of Morningside, governor Wren is forced to flee the turmoil engulfing the city. He and his retinue seek refuge at a border outpost, only to find that it has been infested with a vast number of Weir. But these creatures harbor a terrible secret, one that has consequences—not just for Wren, but for the future of the world. Dawnbreaker: The remainder of humanity believe they can do nothing but wait to be overwhelmed by the Weir and their mysterious leader, Asher. And yet, the arrival of a man named Haiku, seeking the mercenary Three, heralds the return of hope, and that a new hero will rise.

Pages : 514
Book Description
The Gods smiled upon their offsprings from the skies, loving, generous. But that was before. For the sky is now tainted, and the people deprived of their creators overnight have been orphans for nearly two centuries. Since that fateful day, the Corruption has reigned over the world. It defiled the clouds, covered the lands with a veil of darkness. The first conflicts arose in the east of the Coroman continent, some under the impulse of beliefs calling for blood and flames. As hatred continues to spread, the vanished Gods no longer answering any prayers, some fight for a peaceful life. In the midst of this madness, two children meet each other. One of them is human. The other is nichan. The boys are two opposite minds and fates, yet connected irrevocably. The days, then the passing years bring them together. But life reminds them of their differences and works to crush the remnants of their innocence. Between joys and sorrows, friendship and savagery, a smile is sometimes enough to change everything...
