About this series

The year is 2300. Humanity has survived a devastating war, but will it survive the AI who brought them peace?

The genetic super soldiers are no more - their wars long lost. A singularity rules the planet which knows no equal. Life is perfect. Efficient. Monitored. You can be anything, do anything…in the VR worlds of the Nexus.

For M@ti, that isn't enough. She wants to tear it all down. She wants revenge.

An experiment from birth, M@ti sees the Manhattan Preserve differently than the tens of millions who inhabit the city. With her eyes to the stars instead of hidden behind VR gear, she uncovers their caretaker's secret plans for galactic expansion.

But when a deadly hunter finds out she's hacked the networks, M@ti's forced to leave her quiet life behind. She must decide if her unique skills are a curse or a blessing and choose sides in a centuries old war which pits hackers against their AI overlords.

Can she cling to her humanity long enough to deliver the world from AI domination? Or will old wounds finally bring humanity to extinction?

Blade Runner meets Ready Player One in this standalone novel which takes place in the far-flung (alternate?) future of the Crimson Son Universe. Join the revolution today!

    Being the son of a superhero isn't all it's cracked up to be. The only time you get to fly is when fleeing from your father's nemesis. Games of catch are about as fun as dodging incoming artillery. And getting your hands on all that power? Turns out, it's not exactly a hereditary thing. Unless you want to hand yourself over to Uncle Sam. No, not the World War II era Augment with mind control powers, but the U.S. government - specifically the D.O.D.'s not-so-aptly named Project Peacemaker. Oh, and once they've powered you up and tagged you into inventory, you can forget about them paying for college. Superheroes? Please. They're all weapons with one mission - wreck my tender teenage years and make my initiation into adulthood a suicidal mission to do what my weaponized father couldn't: rescue my mother from a psychotic super genius. But I'm game. Two years trapped in dad's Fortress of Solitude may not have helped my social skills, but I'd wreck a whole army of killer robots to get a decent cheeseburger. Look out world, I may not be the hero you want, but I'm all you've got. Just me, my l33t hacking skills, and a multitool between you and Armageddon... Crimson Son isn't your typical superhero novel. Fast-paced, engaging, with all the action you'd expect but set in a believable world and helmed by a hero with an unmistakable voice. Mr. Robot meets The Winter Soldier in this unique superhero series you'll love. Buy now and launch into action with Spencer today!

    All Spencer really wanted was a normal life. College. A job. Maybe a research fellowship which culminated in freeing his mother from the psychic snow globe where he last saw her... Then again, "normal" might be too much to ask for the powerless son of the world's most dangerous Augment. Spencer is soon sucked back into his father's world of weaponized superhumans. Augments long forgotten have emerged from their former prison with their powers amplified. While Spencer and his team race to contain the threats, a digital cabal weaves a vision of the future as infectious as the computerized plague set to deliver it. The Avengers meets Mr. Robot in this thrilling superhero universe. Advance readers have called the plot "scary brilliant and hopefully just fantasy". But will it become Spencer's new reality?

There's Eric, a fellow hacker seduced by a digital revolution he struggles to control. Hound, an aging veteran who has lost his place in a rapidly changing world. Jackie, a newly minted speedster determined not to be just another Augment weapon like Ember her short-fused, fire-wielding mother.

    Empty Quiver: Crimson Son Universe

    Empty Quiver (n) – A U.S. Military term to identify and report the seizure, theft, or loss of a nuclear weapon. They were never designed to be heroes. Hurricane. Ember. Aurora. Danger. State-sponsored superhumans known as Augments. Weapons created to end a war. With the war over, their creators couldn't surrender the power and sought to hide it in the shadows. They forged ahead with covert operations and proxy wars despite growing condemnation. But one by one, Augments begin to ignore their handlers or disappear altogether. The quiver emptied. Empty Quiver takes a dark dive into the Crimson Son universe. Not your typical superhero tales, this short collection pulls no punches as it examines the clandestine program that changed Spencer's world.
