    The gates to the hells have been sealed. The doors to the heavens shut. Humanity has been liberated from the schemes of gods above and below, and the Age of Enlightenment has begun. Liandra d’Helene is a captain of the Empress’s Hand; a cadre of halfblooded angels safeguarding the Imperium from infernal magics and monsters. But a mission gone wrong sees her comrades slaughtered, her command stripped, and her reputation shattered.

  • TRUEL1F3 (Truelife) June 30, 2020

    Best friends have become enemies. Lovers have become strangers. And deciding whose side you're on could be the difference between life and death. For Eve and Lemon, discovering the truth about themselves--and each other--was too much for their friendship to take. But with the country on the brink of a new world war--this time between the BioMaas swarm at CityHive and Daedalus's army at Megopolis, loyalties will be pushed to the brink, unlikely alliances will form and with them, betrayals.
