Overview
World War Z meets Game of Thrones in this horror-fantasy epic!
Min, royal daughter of the elven-like Yhathlin, was born to be a diplomat. Representing her nation at the joint American-Canadian embassy in her subterranean city, she was good at walking the tightrope between the edicts of blood and birth-order that governed her people, the bewildering emotions of her human colleagues, and the strict rules of the Yhathlani Treaty. Then her city was overrun by an apocalyptic plague, and her ordered world disappeared in a flood of blood, teeth, and hunger. Now, fifteen years later, Min is a refugee in the dying remnants of Washington, D.C.. Alien and alone, with only the voices of those she's lost to guide her, she has one reason left to live: to protect Sophie, the last living relative of her human diplomats, or die trying.
RISE FROM THESE DARK WATERS is an uplifting, genre-blending tale told in an epistolary, novel-in-short-stories format. It weaves between three interconnected storylines. If you enjoy epic political fantasy and love the found-document style and framing narratives of Max Brooks' DEVOLUTION, this one is for you.
