About this series
Albert Einstein is quoted as saying, "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." For Ellia McAllister, it couldn't be more accurate.
Thousands of years after a devastating cataclysm, humanity lives in a new dark age. Technology and science are forbidden and a matriarchal church rules society. However, Ellia is ruled only by her curiosity. Defying the Church, she learns that all is not as it seems in the holy books and that humans once traveled to the stars and possibly beyond.
Her knowledge and defiance will mean her death and the death of her family unless she escapes. When she meets the mysterious Kieva, a nomadic Rover, she soon learns that more is going on in the Church than she ever thought possible. Without his help, her life, the lives of thousands of others, and mankind's future are at risk. Can she set her own beliefs aside, her way of life, and trust a stranger? Even if trusting him might mean her death?

2
Brea. The city of Ellia's dreams. It was once a fond memory of time with her father, a beacon of hope and knowledge, a safe haven from her mother. Now, Ellia and Kieva have taken refuge to heal from their wounds and recover their strength. But not everything is as it it seems, and something darker lurks beneath. Their recent hardships have awoken old memories within Ellia and she's forced to question everything she thought she knew. Was her father really the man she believed him to be or something else entirely? Can she trust Kieva or does he have an ulterior motive? As Church forces close in, turning the once peaceful city of Brea on its end, Ellia is forced to make new alliances and seek help from the most unlikely of places. Does she dare trust the Order? Or should she go it alone and find the truth on her own?
