The Range, Book 1: Cry of the Desert

In a dystopian desert landscape, Camp Gamma clings to the edge of a cliff, constantly besieged by mysterious hordes of shadows from the northern desert. The only protection for the camp is The Range, a magical energy fence upheld by its defenders wielding crossbows and pikes. Cyrus, the newly appointed vice-commander, struggles to maintain the loyalty of his captains amid factional infighting between religious zealots and non-zealot defenders, as well as doubts about the competence of Tomias, the new commander. Meanwhile, Nora, a preceptor in the Core, strives to fulfill her duties and raise her adopted daughter, defying gender norms along the way. As ammunition and supplies dwindle, and with the true commander away on a desperate mission to secure aid from neighboring settlements, the stakes have never been higher. If Camp Gamma doesn’t receive reinforcements soon, The Range will be overrun, leaving the settlement vulnerable to the relentless shadow assault. Set against a backdrop of military desperation, “The Range: Cry of the Desert” is a gripping fantasy fiction tale that explores the challenges of loyalty, survival, and the fierce struggle between religious fanaticism and secular pragmatism. In this high-stakes battle, can Cyrus and Nora overcome internal strife and external threats to save their people, or will the shadows finally conquer Camp Gamma and extinguish the last flicker of hope? Dive into this suspenseful, character-driven story to find out.
