Shadows Beneath the Ashes: The Ashes Series: Book 1
In the late 1800s, Canyon Diablo was a town stitched together from greed and desperation, a place where the lost and the lawless carve out what little they can before the desert buries them. The voidglass-a mysterious mineral at the heart of a new gold rush-has turned this place into a battleground, drawing scavengers and soldiers, killers and dreamers, as if something beyond greed and ambition is pulling them here, all blind to the thing watching from below.
Jax, the last of an ancient race, has seen civilizations rise and fall. He has always viewed humans as the enemy-short-sighted, reckless, the architects of their own destruction. But with this new threat, he must set aside old prejudices and stand alongside them. Here, in the ruins of a town that should never have existed, men and women who have no reason to stand together will make a choice. Not for fortune. Not for glory. But because some evils are too great to ignore.
This is not a fairytale adventure. It is not a classic triumph over evil. It is the first step in a long, brutal walk through the wreckage-of bodies and faith, of hope worn thin, of men who fight knowing they will not win. There is no promise of justice. No salvation. Only the choice to stand and face the dark, no matter the cost.
