Summary

Humanity has spent too long atop the food chain, being the apex predator destroying the world and its eco system - and now they are about to face one of their greatest enemies: the embodiment of death itself. Candice Novak is a scientist working alongside military personnel on the frontlines of a war that no-one saw coming with undead as the aggressors and their only aim being to turn the Earth into the Underworld. Thanks to a science experiment gone awry, the demonic entities of Irkalla have found their way to the surface, becoming vampiric creatures with a thirst for blood and a need for violence. Will the humans be the victors in a war where their enemy wears a former ally's face?

Prelude to Destruction:

The world grows hotter, the nights grow darker and exceedingly longer. The light of day slowly disappears, both metaphorically and physically. 

Whilst humanity enters an era of depression – one where they question what the future holds and if it is anything for them – those that have previously remained unseen; the hidden and the faceless ventured from the depths of the umbra upon their bloodied hands and knees until they could bask in the semi-dark of the penumbra.

The Earth is dying, humankind is depleting, slowly killing itself and anything that may get in its way.

Though for some, they just can’t die soon enough.

When a species was once the all-consuming, all-powerful and apex predator amongst vicious beasts, it is ill-prepared when faced with an enemy that will be happy with no less than its extinction.
