Crown of Dawn and Dusk
An Epic Supernatural Fantasy of Magical War, an Impossible Choice, and the Ultimate Sacrifice to Save a Corrupted World.

In a world poisoned by its own magic, humanity’s last stand is a symphony of despair. The Anima, the very lifeblood of existence, has been twisted into a sentient plague called the Swarm—a creeping, crimson tide of anti-reality that consumes flesh, stone, and hope with equal hunger. The war is lost; only the dying remains.
On three desperate fronts, the remnants of civilization fight for one more day. Commander Lucas Blake leads the broken Coalition, making impossible sacrifices and signing death warrants in a grinding war of attrition he knows he cannot win. Far from the battlefield, the warrior Connor Ellison unmoors his spirit from his body, venturing into the Immaterial Sea—an ocean of pure thought and nightmare—to rescue the woman he loves from the heart of the enemy's power. And in the ruins, refugee leader Audrey Chapman discovers an impossible new weapon: a shield forged not from magic, but from collective human disbelief, a power that can unmake the very monsters that hunt them.
All paths lead to the Core of Terra, the world’s magical heart, where the architect of their doom, Sebastian Turner, plans to devour reality itself. As armies of shadow, mages of fading light, and cohorts of ordinary humans converge for a final, apocalyptic battle, the fate of everything will rest on the impossible choice of one woman torn between the storm in her soul and the forest in her heart.
