IMPERATOR

He ruled through fear. They mean to burn him down.

Two years after imposing his Order across five continents, Max isn't just feared
anymore - he's become a state religion, a face cast in bronze that no one dares
challenge to his eyes. But beneath the surface of a peace bought at gunpoint, an
underground network - the Embers - wages a slow, methodical war from the shadows,
chapter after chapter, cell after cell, to remind the world that a god can bleed.

At its head: Marcus Vance, the brother Max believed he'd lost. Seven years
underground, seven years of losses counted one by one, and a question that won't
let go as the cost of resistance keeps climbing - how far can you go to bring down
a tyrant before you become, in turn, the thing you're fighting?

From a Detroit foundry to a shattered Pacific island, from the vote that splits the
network to the final reckoning in Washington, The Embers closes the circle opened
in The Twilight of Law and The New Order - a war where both sides believe they're
right, and no one walks away whole.

Book three of the Imperator Saga, The Embers is a dystopian political thriller
built on a superhero frame: a clinical, unflinching fratricide about the true cost
of freedom when the only alternative to tyranny is ordinary people going to war
against a god.

For readers of dystopian comics and thrillers that leave you unsure, once the last
page turns, which side actually deserved to win.
