    Immortality Has Met Its Match... 
    Ever since the Ring of Fire, the world's vampires have seen their mortality. They won’t live forever after all — not if the angels who created them decide to snuff them like candles. 
    What do the angels want? What did their command to “restore balance” truly mean? For most, the angels’ decrees mean mass murder and mass turnings … but the humans aren’t sheep, and won’t just lie down and take it forever. 
    As Deacon Maurice tries to maintain order with Reginald by his side, panic consumes the Vampire Nation. The center begins to fall apart and chaos grows like cancer. But as war between vampires and humans threatens, Reginald begins to discover strange new abilities within him: to navigate through blood history like no other vampire before him. To glamour those who can’t be glamoured. And seemingly, to stop time itself. 
    Fear has reached its tipping point. War is close. Reginald might hold the key to the angels’ mystery … but whatever could help him intervene just might be too late.

    Stranded in the middle of Antarctica, Concordia Station is so far from any point of civilization that it was dubbed "White Mars." 
     
     
     
    But the freezing temperatures and the prolonged isolation aren't the only problems that the crew has to face. When the research team returns with a new specimen discovered deep inside the frozen underground lake, things take a foul turn for the station members. 
     
     
     
    They don't realize how intelligent this lifeform is. They don't realize how long it lay dormant, waiting to be discovered; waiting for its opportunity to leave the ice and infect the world. 
     
     
     
    The choice that the remaining survivors on the station have is simple: stay quarantined with the parasite, or leave and doom humanity.
