The Hollow Crown
THE WORLD IS OPPRESSED BY ITS OWN SAVIORS.
The year is 2047. Climate collapse, economic ruin, and war have left humanity desperate for salvation. They found it in The First 6-the world's original superhumans, who promised order but delivered tyranny. With abilities beyond mortal comprehension, they rule with absolute power, crushing dissent beneath their heels.
But evolution isn't done yet.
MEET NOAH-THE LIVING WEAPON WHO DOESN'T KNOW HE'S THE CURE.
Noah is a fugitive hiding a deadly gift: he can absorb and retain any superhuman ability he encounters. For years, he's stayed under the radar, surviving in the slums of the Lower City. But when a botched encounter leaves him hunted by the regime, he discovers the terrifying truth-his power isn't natural.
He was designed.
A CONSPIRACY THAT GOES TO THE TOP
The First 6 aren't heroes. They're the result of Project Eden, a secret experiment to create a new ruling class.
Dr. Evelyn Cross, a rogue scientist, reveals Noah's true purpose: he's the failsafe meant to destroy them all.
Kara, a hacker with a personal vendetta, becomes his only ally in a world where trust is suicide.
A POWER THAT COMES WITH A PRICE
As Noah's abilities grow, so does the hunger inside him-an insatiable need to consume, adapt, and dominate. The more powers he steals, the less human he becomes. And the First 6? They're counting on it.
THE ULTIMATE CHOICE
To save humanity, Noah must embrace the monster he was made to be. But if he loses himself in the process, will there be anything left to save?
