In a post-apocalyptic world, where danger roams in many forms, 17-year-old Waverly seeks protection in the town of Crestwood after her boyfriend is ruthlessly killed by lawless raiders. But what she finds is a place wrought with mystery, shady dealings, and more instability than she anticipates.

First, they chase him through the mountains of Colorado for days. Then, they murder his grandfather. And just as Silas Ainsley is about to escape his nameless enemies, he is killed. That's when it should have ended, but Silas' journey is far from over. When he wakes up, he finds himself in a realm where humans are not the superior race, where magic is a way of life, and war is threatening to destroy it all.

A hundred years after the world is decimated by nuclear wars, humanity has been reduced to a surviving city of people called Mainlanders. They have food, water, and a wall that separates them from their enemies - the Outlanders.

Silas Ainsley is desperately searching for the Gatekeeper, but the relentless Stühocs are attacking villages, and an assassin is tracking his every move, making it impossible to find the one with all the answers about who he really is. Meanwhile, after learning that the Dunarian Council has been compromised, Julian Hobbes scours Marenon for the truth about how deep their corruption runs, but the truth will cost innocent lives.

Nineteen-year-old Mora is on a mission to save her village from the relentless greyskins, and there is only one man that can help her, Jeremiah of Screven. As she travels the wastelands, she discovers a power within herself, a power she believes no other human possesses. That is, until she meets others like her - the ones who call themselves the Starborn. These super-humans are on a mission also: to destroy the undead greyskins, and take down the greedy Jeremiah.

The ability to see into the future has only brought Waverly pain and suffering. She has been wrong about everything. Ethan...Remi...are all of them really dead? Stuck in Shadowface's compound, Waverly meets a girl named Amber who is determined to escape. Through a simple touch, Waverly can see that she is destined to escape with her. But she knows it is not the end. Shadowface must be stopped.

Nineteen-year-old Mora is haunted by the flashing red light that pronounces her doom. Now she knows she only has about twenty-four hours to defeat Jeremiah and finish the revolution she has started, before the greyskin virus claims her life. To do this, she must lead the other Starborns through the war-torn streets of Screven. But Jeremiah has a secret power that will test Mora in ways she could have never imagined.

Waverly holds the vial of red liquid in her hands. She doesn't know what it is, or why it's important. But she knows that the mysterious Shadowface wants it, and is willing to do anything to get it.

Overconfidence has no place in a world where the dead rule. Nineteen-year-old Mora has learned this the hard way. After a conflict in the colony of Salem that left hundreds of people dead, Mora and her Starborn allies have been branded as fugitives by Jeremiah, the leader of Screven.

Held in a dark cell in the heart of Mudavé, Silas Ainsley, the Deliverer of Marenon, meets a new enemy: the Possessor. Silas knows it won't be long before the Stühocs try to kill him, or worse, turn him into an enemy against the very people he is meant to help.

Nathaniel Cole never thought things would end this way. This was supposed to be his last job as an outlaw. Now, he finds himself cornered by the most skilled bounty hunter in the West, Levi Thompson. Nate looks down at the mysterious book in his hands. The words scroll across the pages as if penned by some invisible author. It is a magical book - a portal to another world. He knows he does not have a choice. If he stays, he dies.

Nathaniel Cole doesn't want to be an outlaw anymore. He's tired of people chasing him. He's tired of being on the run. But the only way he can get back home is if he steals all three of The Ancient Books - an act that will make him the most wanted man in Galamore. The first of the three books, The Book of Life, is in the possession of the mysterious Kellen, a Sentinel whose magical powers exceed any other. In order to steal the book from him, Nate must travel through a desert of snow, fight off the ruthless gray elves, kill the unmerciful ravagers, and rob a train.
