A world plunged into darkness. The dead rise to protect the living. But at what cost?

In Nightfell, for ninety years the world is plunged into darkness, and monsters from Beneath destroy the cities. Only the Risen dead stand between the living and the beasts.

Dolen must brave the monsters of the night to save his wife, Rayli, who is struggling to birth their first child. Sorreg lives safely within the desert city of Somteh, but the Risen are in rebellion, and her scientific discovery has the potential to rewrite the relationship between the Risen and the living. As their paths intertwine, they bear the fate of the Risen on their shoulders.

For readers of dark fantasy, The Risen explores themes of sacrifice, duty, and the struggle for control in a world filled with monsters and political intrigue. Will Dolen and Rayli find peace? Or will they become pawns in a larger game?

Reviews for The Risen

Rich in science and mythology, this elegant sci-fi series launch from Vogel (Flamewalker) delights with strange aliens and a centuries-long love story... Vogel probes class struggle, xenophobia, and exploitation within a dense science mystery tightly entwined with an enduring love story. Readers will be wowed by this ambitious and fulfilling adventure. --Publishers Weekly The Risen is set in a world full of strange and amazing creatures, including humans, all fighting for survival. And while I've always thought I understood it better than anyone, having had a crucial role in creating it after all, D.W. Vogel has completely humiliated me. In an absolutely delightful, epic, dramatic way! Not only did she understand and appreciate the source material but expanded it beyond its limits, bringing a maturity and life to this project that I didn't think possible. The Godmother of Nightfell, as I've come to rightfully address her, will blow your minds (and hearts) with this novel that I'm 100% sure you'll love and want more of! --Nicolas R. Giacondino, co-creator of Nightfell
