Part I: The Reuniting

Begin Again

A divided world. A fractured love. A choice that will change everything.

Arin was rebuilt, enhanced with healing nanites that strip him of emotion, making him yet another weapon in the ongoing war that has divided humanity. Lia, an elite assassin from the faction of the world who “resist” such technology, has been trained to kill his kind.

The rift between them would be irreparable, if they had never been in love.

The chance reunion between Arin and Lia forces a realignment of loyalties and sparks a chain reaction that threatens the balance of power, exposes buried secrets about the technology that divided their world, and lights the fuse on a war that could reshape the future of humanity.

The Phoenix Effect began as a multi-award-winning feature screenplay and has evolved into an expansive, decades-spanning novel series about love, loyalty, and a world divided. Set against the backdrop of a dystopian otherworld, the story follows a cast of bold, irreverent leaders who rise in a time of chaos and dares to ask what we lose when we trade humanity for immortality.

The Phoenix Effect blends high-stakes action with emotional depth, as characters navigate shifting alliances, hidden threats, and the unresolved ghosts of their pasts. The books are perfect for fans of sci-fi seen through a human lens and stories where love is the driving force of all choices, even in the most divided of worlds.
