First installment in the series.
The two thieves Nat and Ron live together on the road, bouncing from opportunity to opportunity.
But one of them has a secret: Natsin is the survivor of a gruesome experiment, implanted with a zombifying flower.
When fear of abandonment and existential dread drive them to do something stupid, Nat and Ron quickly descend into a world of violence and illness that puts their already fraught relationship to the test.
Status: Undergoing another rewrite, I'm changing the genre.
Nat's long, slow descent into madness as they try and fail repeatedly to claw their way back to the light, and instead get wrapped in Doctor Bishop's charms, the exact same man responsible for ruining their life.
Status: Waiting for Twin Suns. Finished in one go, but will need a rewrite after Twin Suns is done to adjust to new plot and worldbuilding.
Friends don't leave friends alone when they get pulled into cults.
Ron pays Téo a visit, who is preparing for a week of isolation and contemplation under the sign of the blood moon.
But when Ron miscalculates and gets locked in with the rest of the cultists, his life is at stake in more ways than one.
There's a murderer among their rows, and one by one, people begin to drop like flies.
Status: Planned. Title is just a working title for now.
Prequel to Twin Suns.
Téo is living a cushy, if restricted life as a merchant's son.
When he meets Ron, the two get close fast. But when Téo's parents disapprove and try to pressure him to abandon a friend in need, Téo makes a rash decision.
Status: Started, on the back burner for Twin Suns.
