Book Three of the Chronicles of Aesirium: The great and overwhelming Wall which enforces the exile of the people of Oldtown-Against-the-Wall also protects a substantial secret: namely, the lives and life which has also proceeded on inside the Wall. The citizens of Aesirium, protected by the Wall, are content within their relative ignorance; until a new threat reveals itself among them. Rom and her friends must investigate and defend themselves against the mysterious sandmen, following their trail out beyond the streets of Oldtown, the Wild and into the City of the Dead.

It is the dawn of the Superhero. Shocked into action by a massive battle between Awakened criminals and the shadowy government agency created to protect the nation, the world reacts with both fear and hope.

The choices they make will decide whether the Awakened will be monsters or guardians of humanity. Powers modern and ancient struggle for control of the new world order, as old vendettas and ancient plots put Jordan, her team, and her family in mortal danger. Who can Jordan trust when nobody is who they seem and everyone has a secret agenda? Terrible sacrifices will be demanded as the world is forced to Evolve.

The cycle of the year draws to a close. Shomu, the Harvest, is a time of festivals and celebration, but for NuruSekhmet, it is a time for vengeance.

Pursuing Apep's dark servant from the high rises of Chicago, to the forests of South America, Nicole and each of her friends must dig deep and tap unplumbed reserves of strength. To keep the darkness from continuing to rise, they must be willing to risk everything and Nicole could end up sacrificing far more than anyone ever expected.

Achilles. Perseus. Cu Chulainn. Joan of Arc. Their names ring through the millennia. They were called gods, demons, heroes, the sons and daughters of divinity. Today, we know their kind by another word: Superhero. Jordan Law is the best sniper that the British Secret Intelligence Service has ever seen, possessing a singular talent for slipping in and out of places that no human should be able to. She is a woman with a secret, possessing superhuman strength, speed and reflexes, and the ability to make herself seemingly disappear into thin air. She is the perfect operative, an unstoppable assassin. After a successful mission to eliminate a known terrorist leader, Jordan's secret is discovered by a shadowy organization within British intelligence. She is drawn into a covert war where the soldiers are superbeings struggling to keep their own kind from preying on normal humans. Faced with the greatest challenges of her life, Jordan must push her own limits to protect her family, her teammates, and the world from a threat that has worked behind the scenes since the earliest days of humanity. Will the cost be her soul?
