About Radiant Decay: Book Two
The Bloom spreads. Faster. Deeper. Smarter.
After barely surviving their journey through the irradiated wilds, Nara Vence and Elian find themselves fractured—physically, emotionally, and morally. The world beyond the known zones is worse than the maps ever warned. The Bloomed are evolving, adapting in grotesque and intelligent ways. Some speak. Some remember. And some, like the ones whispering Nara’s brother’s name, are hunting.
With whispers of a rumored sanctuary untouched by the Bloom, Nara and Elian plunge deeper into hostile territory, pursued by both monsters and memories. Elian’s search for his sister grows desperate, even as he begins to suspect she may no longer be human. Nara, torn between duty and the voices clawing through her mind, must face the terrifying truth: the Bloom isn’t just a sickness. It’s a design.
As secrets unravel and new horrors rise—iron-wombed breeders, flesh choirs, and the mirrorlunged—Nara must choose between protecting what’s left of her humanity or embracing the very thing she fears becoming.
In Radiant Decay: Book Two, survival means transformation, and the cost of truth may be everything you once were.
