Welcome to
The New World
"He was a man full of secrets, and I was his mirror."
In a fractured world where the government manipulates truth and wields power through fear, light has become both a weapon and salvation.
The New World Series follows the paths of Rebels, Venturers, and survivors as they navigate the brutal regime that turned science, loyalty, and even love into tools of oppression. At the center of it all is Astrid—the woman who existed in silence with a presumed clean past, her future decided by a government that builds its power on vanished names and rewritten histories. She was meant to obey, and she did until she had achieved all she aimed to—her ultimate goal, and then she did what no one expected.
She detonated, igniting the fire of war between the two sides of division to ensure she accomplished what she'd aimed to do since the beginning.
With the Rebellion on her side and the Most Wanted man willing to walk alongside her through the flames, she forges, buried secrets begin to surface, and loyalties splinter. And as the illusion of order unravels, the line between traitor and hero blurs.
From the psychological torment of experimentation to the raw heartbreak of betrayal, this series is a relentless plunge into revolution. Love is forbidden, but it burns brighter than ever—between enemies, friends, and those whose roles shift like shadows. When the Rebellion finally strikes back, it won't just challenge authority.
It will rewrite history no matter what is lost, razing the world to build a new one.
Book One: The Illumination
After the Fall, the last remnants of humanity cling to the illusion of safety the fortified walls cast. The world beyond is a wasteland deemed unsafe by government officials, and overrun by the infected—Runners, Rebels and Scavengers—the results of failed experimentation and burning opposition.
As a Venturer, Astrid is one of the few wearing the badge of protection, daring to face the dangers of the Wilds on missions sanctioned by authorities. Delving further into their webs of secrecy, she begins to question the intentions of those in power.
When Astrid crosses paths with the Most Wanted power user, a man whose name sparks rebellion, the fragile lines between enemy and ally blur. To protect those she loves, Astrid may have to confront not only the horrors of the Wilds, but the shadows of her own secrets, and the man who holds the key to unraveling them.
Book Two: The Abyss

Book Three: The Backlight

When Zaide finally steps out of the shadows and aligns with numerous groups who oppose the essence of his bloodline, he must decide whether to become the force that frees the people or the storm that destroys them all.
Gael Adler was once a soldier, loyal to his country and protecting the lives of millions, but now he’s nothing more than a tool in the hands of a corrupt regime. Controlled by the president’s telepathic grip, Gael is forced to carry out brutal acts he can’t escape or forget. Yet deep down, he fights back, driven by the memory of the woman he loves and the man he used to be. In a world where freedom is a distant memory, Gael must break the chains confining him-or lose himself to the smothering darkness forever.
One bound by blood and the other imprisoned by control, both are ready to rise.
The war has begun.
Book four: The Unveiled
With sides aligning and secrets unraveling, Astrid’s long game becomes clear—or at least that’s what she wants everyone to believe. Having established herself as someone the Rebellion sanctuaries should fear, they bend to her every beck and call as she shifts the current of the war with the government. Still, she fights in secrecy, driving alliances apart and forming ones that fit the mask she’s been wearing all along. But at what cost?
Where deceit is as dire as breathing, love shifts into an irreversible crutch. It is no longer about survival, but about perfecting acts of betrayal, deception, and, most of all, uncovering the truths of the woman who started it all.
The woman who has hidden cards up her sleeves since the beginning.
Book five: The New World
FROM RUIN, THE FUTURE RISES
The New World is a gamble, and it’s a bet willing to fight for.

Those who oppose the government are ready to play one last game—a game to end Radley’s reign, no matter the cost. And as Jasper and Onyx navigate the loss of someone they trusted, they delve further into setting up a war that will either create the New World or unravel the fabric of their lives. Their love is a potent weapon, one long since wielded against them, but in an event as disastrous as this, will it be strong enough to survive?
There’s no time for placid actions when the fate of all rests on killing one man. Will the Rebellion’s wrath prevail, or will it devour souls until only the villains remain?
