Sovereign: The Prequels

(Antius Ascending Series, Companion Stories)

Long before Antius, Nathan Burke is driven by his need to be acknowledged by his father. One catastrophic mistake by this villain-in-the-making sparks the fall of civilization. Years later, well into the apocalypse and all its fallout, Karen discovers a boy named Tyce while working with the City’s kids. The two of them witness firsthand the brutal aggression of the savage males. And just two years before Corinne Cole would join the Guard as his trainee, Titus risks everything, breaking Antius’s laws when he falls for someone he is not allowed to touch.

This compilation includes three short stories told from the perspectives of one hated and two beloved Sovereign characters. The stories are prequels to the Antius Ascending Series, though they are best enjoyed as sequels, as they do contain spoilers.
