Ever since the first Rift appeared more than a dozen years ago, humanity has fought for its very existence. Destructive forces of alien nature, Rifts erupt as black spheres, encircling communities and transferring people to unearthly realms, where monstrous entities feed on them like cattle. Some humans, however, have found white crystal shards implanted in their chests, granting them physical and magical powers that help them survive the Rifts.

For more than a decade, Earth has been plagued by black spheres known as Rifts that form in towns and cities without warning and transport people to alien landscapes where monstrous creatures hunt them mercilessly. Anyone lucky enough to escape returns home with an unusual side effect: supernatural powers coursing through their bodies from white crystal shards fused to their chests. With abilities ranging from uncanny agility and strength to immeasurable spell crafting, these Rifters are warriors and mages, battling extraterrestrials whenever a Rift appears.

The Age of Rifts began thirteen years ago when the first black sphere appeared on Earth, teleporting everyone within its radius to an alien realm where they fell prey to otherworldly creatures. Those who survived and returned home found white crystal shards grafted onto their chests. Imbued with energy, these Riftshards grant people supernatural abilities. Known as Rifters, they have become Earth's first line of defense against this unpredictable invasion, able to enter the spheres and fight the monsters and evolving with greater powers after every battle.

The Six Fingers return to Northem with a powerful, magical artifact known as the Azure Font. They mount it atop the ancient Faellic tower, but have little idea of what comes next. When the Red Lady senses something "truly evil" rising in the south, they embark on their third expedition. It takes them across the nightmarish Sea of Spires and into the heart of Atmaa, the last kingdom untouched by the Askerati hordes. As they discover, something worse than child-burning zealots has awakened.

The Expeditions of the Six Fingers take listeners back to the dungeon-crawling origins of the medieval fantasy genre. Magic spells and weapons are few and far between. Monsters are just being discovered. At the opening of the series, religious zealots are on the verge of reducing the civilizations of Arqonias to dark superstition, and only the kingdom of Northem stands as a beacon of reason against them.

This second book in the series sees Thea and Jeremy honing their detective skills with a little help from their magical, spiritual, and psychic friends. Join the Moons & Runes gang as they celebrate Ostara, solve a mystery, and face new and life-changing challenges.

Twelve strangers from different realities are kidnapped and left stranded on an Earth where magic has supplanted technology and ancient empires have prospered for many centuries in this work of dark fantasy. Among some are a deadly assassin from the Canadian Armed Forces, a brilliant Irish trauma surgeon, a "nuclear winter" survivor, and a medical marvel whose augmented strength does little to compensate for his irreversible brain damage.

How do you carry on when life has taken everything? When death has touched you, so personally, so deeply, so powerfully. How do you carry on, when the future has been stolen by the birdsong? Nothing is as it seems in this nightmare world.
