Askala has been seized by a new order. A cruel army that rules with greed and fear. An army that seems impossible to defeat. Forced into the forest, the people struggle to survive using all they’ve learned from the harshness of the Outlands. Bound, Unbound and Remnant alike are going to have to create unity in a world founded on division if they are to win.

Four tests. Seven days. Nine teens. Only the chosen shall breed.Humans now live in a super greenhouse. Seas have risen. Oceans have acidified. And the fight for resources is deadly. To ensure nothing of this magnitude ever happens again, only those with enough intelligence and heart will earn the right to bear children and heal the earth. Nine teens must face the tests of the Proving to decide who will be Bound to this new order. Four of them will challenge the system in ways even they can’t imagine.

The loss of bees was heralded as the sixth wave of extinction. Economies crashed. Ecosystems collapsed. Wars were waged as countless starved. Luckily, humans were able to alter bees’ genetic code to deal with the hazards of pesticides and disease.

Sea levels have receded, exposing fertile, untouched land. Virgin soil that everyone in a ravaged world is willing to fight for. Askala knows it needs to stake a claim if they’re going to continue healing the Earth. To do that, a team of Seekers will be sent to colonize it...and assimilate those who don’t understand. This year, the testing won’t end at the Proving. Passing is no longer just about having a kind heart and a sharp mind.

When Eden starts at a new school during her senior year, she has no idea how much her life is about to change. Until she meets Noah, who immediately draws her in with his summer sky eyes and the secrets he hides behind them. Their connection is as inexplicable as it is undeniable. It's a connection that has Eden running and Noah burning to know more about this shy, wounded girl. But it's also a connection that's destined to spark a prophecy that neither knew existed. A prophecy others are willing to kill for.

Their society was meant to mold human evolution. Their future, and that of Earth, was to be decided by the kindest and smartest. Askala was supposed to be a beacon of hope in a flooded, desecrated world. Except the line between the Bound and Unbound is blurring. The Outlands is no longer some distant, faceless world. And the Remnants have a leader who knows more about them than any Remnant before. In a world devastated by global warming, the fight for survival has always been deadly. Now, the battle for Askala is about to define the very future of humanity.

A formula has been created. One that will ensure immunity for all. But it’s been stolen as a hidden enemy undermines every step to save the Vulnerables. Echo is doing everything she can to hunt the saboteur. River is about to discover he’s more connected to this than he ever thought possible.

Only the chosen shall seek. Sam, Hawk, Luca, and Mercy. Four teens no longer sure what they’re seeking. Four teens no longer sure whether it can be found. They were supposed to be building a new world. One where the Earth is respected as much as the people who depend on it for survival. One where the benefits of Askala could be shared by all. Except instead of bringing people together, Sam, Hawk, Luca, and Mercy are more divided than ever. In the struggle to repair the world from the ravages of global warming, the fight to reunite is going to be their greatest battle yet.

A divided were nation. A hidden fae heritage. Newly crowned prime alpha pair, Noah and Eden are preparing for the destiny they have been chosen for. When the final precept appears, three words etched in stone that change everything, they know their fated connection is about to be tested as never before. Because the need to conquer is exactly what the prophecy is asking for. As packs splinter, as the fae reveal their secrets, and as a new threat to the glade seems unstoppable, Noah and Eden are about to discover the prime prophecy is even bigger than they imagined.

They were meant to bring Askala to the world. Now the war is coming to Askala. Sam, Hawk, Luca, and Mercy must return home to protect the society they were bred to champion. But how do they defend peace loving Askala from the greatest threat yet? As secrets are revealed and loyalties are tested, everyone will be forced to question who is friend and who is foe. The Commander is far more dangerous than anyone realized. The Outlanders are divided about whose side they’re really on. And Askala is unprepared for an attack.

In a new world isolated by a rising, toxic sea, a single bridge connects Askala to the Outlands. Those who remain will need to pass a "proving" to determine if they have the intelligence and heart to champion the future of their broken Earth. Those who succeed will become Bound, the ones chosen to breed. Those who fail, are Unbound. Free of responsibility, but robbed of their ability to bear children.

Echo and River have blurred the line between Dead Born and Green Born, revealing the ultimate secret. They’ve discovered there’s a way to save humanity. The Sovereign is the one who carries true immunity against the deadly superbees. And now, they must find her.

Four young lives now have to choose where they belong. To choose what and who they will fight for. Because no matter where they turn, the legacy of the past is inescapable. The Newlands already has settlers. The Outlands has a new leader. And danger has arrived in Askala. Hawk, Sam, Mercy, and Luca must work together or be swept away by a world even more divided than themselves. As the fight for survival becomes a fight for the future, as hearts yearn and secrets are protected, loyalties will be tested.

Their connection is binding, their love undeniable. However, Noah and Eden are about to discover that even a love prophesied through the ages must be founded on one thing. As Noah carries the secret he’s too afraid to share, Eden desperately wishes for a destiny that’s already come to pass. But as the Prime Prophecy reveals itself so does the greed for what it promises. As tensions between the packs grow, as the existence of Weres is threatened to be exposed…as Eden finally learns the truth about her inexplicable gift with animals, the two will face their greatest challenge.

Four teens must face the fallout of the Proving. Three have made it through. One has not. Nova. Kian. Dex. Wren. Four lives defined by the outcome. Four lives who thought the Proving was the most difficult test they would ever have to face. They all assumed Askala was safe, but a link to the Outlands has been established and a Remnant invasion is now a threat. In a starving, damaged world, Askala has what others want.

Echo and River have fought for one thing—immunity for all. And yet, it’s never been that simple. The truth has always been out of reach. Now, the Razers want justice. The Green Borns want to protect humanity’s last stronghold. And as war erupts, the dream of one zone may finally come true—the Extinction Zone.

When a man appears in flowing robes, telling Reign he’s the Keeper of the Grail, Reign knows the inevitable has happened—he’s lost his mind. Content to cruise down his road of self-destruction, he refuses to believe the prophecies of death and devastation. Arielle’s mom has been abducted. She soon learns her unassuming, scholarly mother dedicated her life to secretly researching the holy relic. Determined to find her before it’s too late, Arielle’s path crosses Reign’s. Their inexplicable draw to each other is a complicating factor neither of them want.

Time is running out. The Sovereign needs to be protected before the Green Zone can claim her for themselves. At the cost of everyone else. As the seeds of rebellion brew, impatience threads its way through the Dead Zone. Vulnerables are questioning the fairness of the life they’ve been born into. Soon, Echo and River find themselves in danger on both sides of the giant net that’s supposed to keep them safe.

Arielle and Reign face the end of the world as they know it. Untold horrors wait to ravage Earth, angels and demons are at war, the apocalypse is near. And as the Gates of Hell crumble one by one, the ultimate battle to save humanity has begun.

A battle for newfound power has begun, sparked by a drive for absolution that reaches as far back as the origins of man. A war that will wreak havoc in ways humanity has never seen before.
