THE CHRONICLES OF THE DEATH WORKER

DEATH ISN’T A PERSON. IT’S A CORPORATE ENTITY. Long before humanity drew its first breath, an eternal system was built to process and guide departing souls back into the cycle of life. Hidden in the shadows of the Underworld sits the Academy—a grim training ground where the chosen dead master the lethal art of reaping. But the true story begins twenty years earlier, with the cruel King Vincent Victrolas. On his deathbed, he leaves his sons with a single, devastating directive: depart, conquer, and build two empires that will devour the world. Today, that wish has manifested into two unstoppable superpowers locked in an endless, bloody war over a mysterious relic that both sides would kill to control. Enter Kendrick Vale. A hardened captain in the Imperial Army of Romania, Kendrick’s life doesn’t end in glory. Instead, he is betrayed and stabbed in the back by a man he once called a friend. When his soul is intercepted on its way to the afterlife, Death offers him a grim ultimatum: fade into nothingness or put on the uniform of a Reaper. Determined to uncover the truth behind his betrayal, Kendrick must survive a dangerous hierarchy of shadows, bureaucracy, and deadly supernatural forces while mastering his dark new powers. But as he pulls at the threads of his past, he begins to uncover secrets that threaten to shatter the fragile balance between the living and the dead. Every soul has a destination. And Kendrick is about to discover that even Death has enemies.
