Carver thought he’d saved the world from the endless dead, but as Earth tries to find peace, a new threat targets the guides themselves, and Carver’s first on its list. With WW1 still raging away, lost souls continue to pour into Riven, filling its world to bursting. The Guides, charged with cleansing those dead, are stretched thin even before a mysterious enemy begins tearing them apart. Carver must hunt down the monster before it destroys the guides, allowing the dead to break the barrier between worlds. The Cycle is the second book in The Riven Trilogy, a steampunk fantasy set during a twisted World War One. With snappy characters you’ll grow to love, a unique world, and fast-paced action, Carver’s attempt to save the only family he knows will have you turning the pages all the way to the end. If you’re looking to dive into a dark, exciting story, pick up The Cycle today and vanish into Riven’s mysterious, magical world.

I spin stories in a frosty house in Madison, WI, primarily owned by a pair of cats. After getting sucked into the working grind in the economic crash of the 2008, I found myself spending boring meetings soaring through space and going on grand adventures. Eventually, spending time with podcasting, screenplays, short stories and other novels, I found a story I could fall into and a cast of characters both entertaining and full of heart. That story became Wild Nines, and eventually became a trilogy. I've got a basket, maybe even a barrel of ideas for more stories coming after these, so if you'd like to see what I'm scribing, feel free to visit me at adamrknight.com or sign up for my newsletter at http://bit.ly/bkbnewswn. Thanks for reading!
