Ashes Rising

By James Thornton

In the year 2756, the world is a rotting wasteland of seventeen billion starving souls, and the shattered ruins of London belong only to those ruthless enough to take them. Amid the concrete corpses of skyscrapers and relentless gang warfare, Kane has built an empire out of blood, discipline, and tactical brilliance. In a ruined City where violence is the only currency, he reigns supreme. When Kane pulls Ash from the rubble, a starving orphan scavenging for scraps, he offers him purpose, safety, and a lethal trade. Moulded into an instrument of war, Ash rises from the streets to become Kane's most trusted commander. Together, they wage a brutal campaign to subjugate rival factions and hammer Britain's fractured territories into a united front, forging an empire held together by iron will and fragile loyalties. Yet their greatest test still awaits. Across the ocean looms Savage, a continental warlord commanding thousands of professional soldiers, vast supply chains and overwhelming firepower. With an unstoppable invasion bearing down and internal betrayals threatening to tear the newly won kingdom apart, Ash must confront the terrifying cost of power. In the war for humanity's ashes, survival may demand sacrificing the last piece of his soul.
