New Sci‑Fi Saga Begins: Captives, Invasions and a New Authorial World

Wednesday, April 15, 2026

A fresh series set in an alien world
The writers who turned their long‑running book franchise into a six‑season TV hit have launched an entirely new story—this time in a stark, extraterrestrial setting. Their latest books are already in development for an upcoming Amazon show, beginning with The Mercy of Gods, a New York Times bestseller. The follow‑up, The Faith of Beasts, is available on Amazon and other retailers, while the opening chapters can be read for free on a popular online platform.

Plot Overview

  • Alien Invasion
    The dominant species, the Carryx, seize control of Earth‑like planet Anjiin, enslaving worlds and destroying others.
  • Captive Scientists
    A small group of scientists is taken to a cathedral‑like palace, forced to continue research for their alien captors.
  • Protagonist
    Dafyd Alkhor struggles to prove humanity’s worth or face extinction.

The narrative follows Anjiin’s fall and the adaptation of captured humans: some are integrated into Carryx society, learning new customs while their former lives vanish; others hide or are dispatched to distant missions. Themes of identity, loyalty, and survival under a harsh regime drive the story.

How to Read

  • Start Free – Begin with the opening chapter of The Mercy of Gods, available online at no cost.
  • Continue – Purchase The Faith of Beasts to dive deeper into Dafyd’s journey through the Carryx empire.

This series offers a fresh take on space conquest, blending familiar elements from the original universe with new, alien stakes.
