"The dark has teeth . . .
With comrades at his side, Will ventures deeper into the unknown. Tunnels that shouldn't exist stretch out beneath Kirkstall Abbey, descending into the earth until the sun is a distant memory.
Corruption spreads . . .
Hundreds have ventured into the depths, supposedly seeking sanctuary. Only one has escaped. Will and his friends find evidence of scores of others—clothing left in pristine arrangements with no corpses to be seen. Terrors howl up from the abyss at every turn, and only the occasional survivor, torn by trauma and the incessant dark, hints at the horrors still awaiting in the deep.
Will is committed now; the anomalies pose a threat to Earth far beyond the ascension's magical mayhem. But cut off from reinforcements and steeping in the knowledge that his allies above will think he's dead, Will's choice to hunt the corruption spreading through Leeds may prove to come at too high a price."
"A mission to find a needle in a haystack . . .
Will's made Ezekiel a promise he intends to keep. Will may have promised to find the woman he loves, but first, he's going to look for Moira, the woman who changed Ezekiel's life. Delivering a letter in an apocalypse? Certainly not the strangest thing Will's decided to do since the ascension began.
A haunted city . . .
Finding a single person in Leeds without mobile phones or the internet is bound to be difficult. Doing so with ascension-mutated local fauna, even more so. But when the entire city is haunted by legends far too alive for dead things? Will's up for a challenge as much as the next guy with a baby dragon at his side.
His own personal haunting is enough without literal ghosts making mince of the populace. Will's as surly as he is stubborn, and even he can't ignore it when rumors of hundreds disappearing into Kirkstall Abbey reach his ears. Especially when he learns that's exactly where the woman he seeks has gone.
Will thought he'd gotten away from the corruption that caught his uncle and his friend, but the memories of Bamford aren't all that have followed him northward.
Leeds is about to be something far worse than haunted."
"Earth has ascended . . .
Magic tears through an unsuspecting planet of humans, bringing mythology and monsters to life—and providing humanity a chance to prove their mettle.
A creeping infection and an enemy from the deep . . .
Anomalies won't stop coming. With the community of Oban researching to the best of their ability, the ever-changing landscape only provides new challenges. The ascension has remade Oban, and the people are thriving, but Calum knows that can't last when new threats are born every day.
Dangers in the sea to the west. Anomalies overland from the south. Every additional ally brings news of encroaching dangers. Oban may have built a bulwark against this brave new world, but when the anomalies claim a friend, the race is on to find something—anything—that can fight yet another wave of change in the ascension's arena.
Oban has had a taste of what it could be like to thrive.
First, they'll need to survive what has risen from the abyss."
"Earth has ascended . . .

The hunt is on . . .
Argyll is full of danger. With Eilidh loose on her own in the countryside, Calum and his friends are always one step behind on her trail. They don't know her route, only that Lord Sackington's people have murdered the team sent to rescue vulnerable refugees.
But Eilidh has left a trail of magical breadcrumbs—a trail only Calum can follow.
When they encounter the full horror of Sackington's hunger for power, it's no longer a few ragtag Scots against the wilds: it's a band of survivors against a rising evil.
Their haven in Oban is in peril, and the beithir is back . . . and out for blood."
"Earth has ascended . . .

Old grudges die hard . . .
All Calum Green wants is to reach what remains of his family. Ninety miles of the Scottish Highlands stand between Calum and his family home in coastal Oban. He does not want to make that trek with his cheating ex-girlfriend's bestie at his side.
Eilidh MacIntosh has always disliked Calum, and now she's armed with a bloody claymore on top of her haughty disdain. But the ascension directive is clear: humans cannot survive this new world alone—and this pair makes an annoyingly good team.
With Calum's magic and their combined bad luck, the unlikely duo accidentally trigger a rare ascension quest: to find the perpetrator of a dangerous, corrupt magic that could make all of humanity into an endangered species."
"A World On the Precipice . . .
Will Grayson knew he would probably live to see the end of the world, with the way things have been going—he just didn't think he'd live through it, let alone with an insufferable git by his side.
A System Glitch . . .
Hiking in the Peak District at the moment Earth is—accidentally—infused with magic and thrown into an indifferent and muddled system, Will returns to his Derbyshire village to find a ghost town.
No bodies. No blood.
Only a verdant, pervasive green that has overtaken his home as if it's had a hundred years to grow. But this new magic is alive, and it's not alone.
Neither is Will. Accompanied only by the person he'd vote Least Likely to Team Up With in an Apocalypse and a literal baby dragon, Will searches for traces of his family and instead finds only dangling threads of clues. Tugging on those threads might lead to answers . . . or they might unravel what's left of Earth."
