Dying Light Book

Gamble in a dying world

[Warning: This book can get brutal, but don't expect action on every page. I place quite an emphasis on character design and development.] ......... You've read Apocalypse stories thousands of times, with courageous, cautious and even altruistic leads. Western, Eastern.. how about an African lead whose ability can actually get him killed?? Bernard once gambled on a chance to make his life better. To do what he actually wanted with his life despite what others wanted him to do. Though it's probably not the gamble you're thinking about... He succeeded. He got to live the life of his dreams, gave his family the support they needed and saw them thrive. That one moment gave him everything he dreamed of.. That was until the apocalypse came.... The planet quaked, the ozone was destroyed, harsh light eviscerated life on the planet.. Gravity was distorted and mutations occurred on some organic lives on the entire planet.. An enemy of unimaginable proportions descended on Earth, but the mystery behind him is one you probably haven't heard of many times... Bernard’s hard work was destroyed. So was his family that he had finally made proud, as a brother and as a son. At the brink of death, a light shone amidst the chaos. A light that clung to many humans who were still alive... A light that gave them a fighting chance against their enemy... The humans awakened to abilities tied to their happiest memories. Abilities of different kinds with vast applications and some.... awkward connotations.. Bernard awakened a gift to fight through the terror and creatures that awaited. He awakened the Innate Ability: Gamble... ......... Vital Information for Readers: I'm sure most of you won't like the main character in the beginning. But I must stress that he will develop and experience a major development in an important arc that's not too far ahead. He won't always be on the pages for the first section of the story, but he will still have a prominent role. Other characters in this world are given a fair share of time to express themselves and develop too. A lot. The first 10 chapters set up the BASIC story, but they are NOT exposition. The story will be moving...quite fast, so be prepared for less action in that time period. ....... Check out my other book 'Bro! I'm not an Undead' Cover picture is mine... only the dice are from the net and edited on PS.. credit to the...owner...

The Light Will Not Fade

For centuries, the noble House Concordia, humanity’s torchbearers, guided the world through its darkest days. Their sacrifices drove back the malevolent force known only as the darkness, banishing it from the material world in the cataclysmic Battle of Scarlet Rivers. But victory came at an immense cost: the death of their revered leader, the Sword Saint, and the fracturing of humanity’s unity. In the centuries that followed, greed and hubris consumed the fractured factions of mankind, leaving the Concordia family shunned and their warnings ignored. Now, in the year 677, the darkness stirs once more, its hunger for chaos and despair reignited by humanity's corruption. As cracks tear through reality, unleashing hordes of demons upon the great city of Emberfall, the darkness manifests in a terrible, humanoid form—arrogant, cruel, and unstoppable. The nobles of the Kaizen Empire, consumed by their own self-interest, panic in the face of their reckoning, while the common people fall victim to unthinkable horrors. At the center of this unfolding apocalypse stands Eryndor of Concordia, the young head of his house. Dismissed as naïve for clinging to ancient prophecies, he has spent years pleading with humanity to unite against the darkness. Now, with the return of his family’s ancient enemy, Eryndor must rise to his legacy and rally what remains of humanity before it’s too late. But to fulfill his family’s oath, Eryndor must face impossible odds, forge alliances with those who once betrayed his house, and confront the truth of what it means to sacrifice for the light. As the forces of darkness spread across the land, "The Light Will Never Fade" is a story of shattered hope, enduring legacies, and the power of selflessness in the face of despair. Will Eryndor and those who stand with him rekindle humanity’s flame, or will the darkness extinguish the light forever?
