About
For centuries, guides have protected humanity from the spirits of the dead. They use ancient weapons and rituals to cleanse Riven, a desolate world where Earth’s lost souls wander, and send them to their final rest, the Cycle. Guides ensure the dead remain in Riven, preventing them from returning to the world of the living.
When a global war erupts, the delicate balance between life and death is shattered. More and more dead cross into Riven, breaches—rips between the worlds—appear, and the Cycle struggles to keep up. The dead begin to outnumber the living, threatening to unleash the horrors of Riven on an unsuspecting world.
Carver, a guide in Chicago, is tasked with an impossible quota: cleanse Riven of its lost souls before it’s too late. As he delves deeper into this broken world, Carver uncovers a dangerous conspiracy and a terrifying truth about his own past. His fight to save humanity, leads him to confront ancient spirits who hold the keys to Riven’s fate—and his own.
