Matthew is the eldest son and heir to House Redstone. With his family poised to enter the realm of nobles, Matthew hides a secret he’s kept for years—his starbond failed, and instead a harsh voice haunts his nightmares.

When his family is attacked in a political purge, Matthew faces the terrible truth that in a world where starbonds give power to fight monsters, his true threat is the monsters of men and before them he can do nothing.

Kidnapped and sold into slavery, Matthew finds himself trapped between a growing wall of anger inside him and the realities of survival. Fighting a losing battle to cling to life over years of brutal conditions, he is ultimately left with one decision: die and allow those who murdered his family to go unpunished, or make an eternal sacrifice. Matthew makes his choice, and when he does, a darkness from inside his nightmares chooses him back.

When Michael starts to see cloaked, shadowy figures following his friends at school—figures no one else can see—he is thrust into a world he never believed existed. With his sight of the ghostly figures marking him as a potential, prophesied seer, he is assassinated by an ancient order seeking to rule the lives of men and women in both worlds. Waking up in the world of the Spirit, Michael encounters a battle raging from the dawn of time—one side fighting to close the gates to the great eternal expansions humanity may find, and the other, seeking to fulfill the prophecy to unlock them.

Syliva Lancaster, living in pain from family wreckage, is doggedly pursuing a numb life in high school only to one day, after saving the life of a young man caught in an explosion, be offered the chance of lifetimes—to join an elite group known as the Death Junkies—a group traveling through time to catastrophic eras and earning points by proximity to danger and demonstrating feats of incalculable bravery. Having run from the things that caused her the most pain for years, Sylvia is forced to face the things that terrify her the most in the world, and ultimately her heart.
