VOLUME ONE — THE FIRST GENERATION — COMPLETEVOLUME TWO — THE LICH KING'S BURDEN — IN PROGRESS RELEASE SCHEDULE: New chapters are released individually as they are written, reviewed, and polished. Updates may vary depending on the writing and editing process.The monsters in folklore were never myths. They were the survivors. When the System descended upon Earth, humanity discovered that every legend, every cryptid, and every campfire story was true. Gabriel Silva never wanted to become a soldier. He survived anyway. Now Gabriel and the people beside him are among humanity's first monster hunters, learning the rules of a world no one understands—and discovering that the creatures hunting humanity may be learning too. Survival was only the beginning. Humanity has fought monsters. Now something is commanding them. AI Disclosure: I wrote and developed this series myself. AI tools are used during editing for proofreading, grammar, feedback, and revision assistance. I personally review, revise, and approve the entire manuscript. The story, characters, world, and final creative decisions are mine. Want more? Visit The First Generation Series — thefirstgenerationseries.com — for character profiles, artwork, lore, and more.
