Ebook short description

Driven by need and haunted by her powers, this necromancer must brave the daunting Deadlands to find her love.

Extended description

Vanya, misunderstood and alone, is one of the few necromancers in a world sundered by chaos. Superpowers have crumbled, genetic experiments have gone wild, and people have fallen back on old ways. Few can stand against the wilderness, but she teams with a mercenary group capable of doing just that.

However, members of The Last Hope don't know her darkest secret: Vanya must find a vampire to open her to death or go insane.

Prophetic dreams promise relief, and have lead her to the path of Alexander. He is everything Vanya needs and more, and she finally knows where he makes his lair; the ruins of Louisville.

She just needs to cross the Deadlands to get there; hostile territory east of St Louis overrun by feral animals, genetic monstrosities, and the dreaded neospawn ghouls. Certainly not the kind of place an addicted necro wants to be alone while suffering withdrawals. Meaning she must enlist the aid of the mercenaries who are as wary of her death powers as everyone else.

Review by: Yllektra V. on June 02, 2011 :
Wow, wow, wow!!
There are no words to express how much I loved this!!!
I totally adored the world the author created and the wonderful descriptions and the post-apocalyptic, dystopian world reminded me so much of Lilith Saintcrow's The Dante Valentine Series(which is one of my favorites)and her writing in general.

I fell in love with Vanya and Alexander and all characters were very distinct and lovable in their imperfection.
It was explained from the beginning that Vanya and Alexander needed each other. They complemented each other and they were a match for each other even in terms of power.
I found the description of Vanya's feelings towards him and when they finally "touched" each other compelling.

I was mesmerized by the whole story of the Gene Wars and how the world/society had descended into chaos and imbalance.
It was really easy to understand what was going on, how the world was separated and what kind of creatures there were now and that was a major feat for the author to do so in such a short story.

The plot was easy to follow, the feelings and motivations of the characters were clearly defined and the ending was very good...Although I'd love a sequel! XD

In one word: Awesome if you love Necromancer stories.
Like Vanya says in the book:
"Every Breath brought me Alexander's scent; sharp, slightly dusty, like the inside of a temple.
Oh, how I wanted to worship"

I worship! XD
