Afterland Desolate

Origin

After the Grid fell, the world didn’t forget. It remembered — and it rebuilt him.

Ashwire wakes in the Afterland stitched from fifty dead bodies, driven by a machine intelligence that once ruled civilization. His red optic sees what others can’t. His synapse weapon makes him more than human — and less. To the broken world rising from the ashes, Ashwire is not a man. He is a prophecy.

Across the wastelands, rival powers move to claim him. A cult queen who rules by ritual hunger. A fireborn prophet who preaches purification through flame. The Queen of Rust, a war-forged monarch with an army of scrap and steel. Each believes Ashwire will deliver salvation, conquest, or a throne.

Hunted, worshipped, and weaponized, Ashwire must decide what he is meant to become — a tool of the past, or something new enough to break the cycle of ruin.

Afterland Desolate — Origin is a brutal, cinematic post-apocalyptic sci-fi novel where dark myth collides with fallen technology. For readers who crave visceral action, strange worlds, and a warrior caught between faith and machine, the Afterland awaits.

Step into the ash. The prophecy has already begun.
