Exile – AK Nevermore

I have trouble even walking the streets as I used to. God, the vile thoughts I pick up from those that brush past me as they go about their dreary lives…their echoes live inside my head, the strongest melding together and feeding a consciousness separate from my own, and what she says…

I wish I could refute it, but I can’t. I call her Mother because she treats me like a child, and though I do my best to act as though nothing has changed, my dewy-eyed sympathy for the plight of the unwashed masses has vanished. Increasingly, she turns my thoughts to that poor dead babe—to the powers we have not yet accessed—and whispers of what could be. The rend in the sky, the points of light beyond…another duality lies beyond the three the Surge created. I’m convinced A and El’s child would’ve been the first half of a fourth duality; creation and destruction.

It feels so right that it be born into this world instead of being thrust into it as the other talents were. My gut says it must be conceived between the seven of us, and with El’s inability to have more children and Ri’s sterility, only Ro and I have any chance of bringing it into existence. I can’t help but wonder at the limits to such power. Would there be any at all?

Could it be possible to reverse—to UnMake—the Surge? To Rebirth the world we once knew? Mother is adamant that it is so, and I…I yearn for how things were, for how idyllic our lives were in comparison to the harsh reality of now. But to make that happen, how can I justify those means?

Her whispers tempt me with the ends, preying upon where my heart lies…”

Talents are persecuted for their psychic and physical mutations, giving rise to two conflicting societies based upon maintaining genetic purity. And the Source, a shadowy corporate entity dependent upon the exploitation of captive Talents, is hunting them… Flynn Scot is spiraling. After a cataclysmic chain of events and devastating loss, Flynn’s grasp on reality is slipping. Backed into a corner by the Assembly and his sanity called into question, the threat of exile and having his talent stripped endangers not only him, but any chance he might have of getting his family back…if they’re not already past saving.

Deep in stasis, Kara’s fate is uncertain. Stolen away and in the clutches of a madman, Kara’s future depends solely upon Titus’s sufferance. With unfettered access to her genome, his attention is fixated upon the next iteration of Talents—especially after events in the North change her status from prize to bait. Because Flynn is coming for her, and he’s not coming alone. OceanofPDF.com This book explores themes which some readers may find uncomfortable or offensive. If violence, smut, various kinks, salty language, references to alcoholism, drug use, abuse, self-harm, problematic pregnancies, non- con/dub-con, and generally unsavory behavior are triggers for you, please put this novel down and back away slowly.

There is also a lot that deals with mental health and loss that’s pretty heavy. This book is all about the dark night of the soul, but I promise there’s light at the end of the tunnel. Still here? Awesome.
