When the skies bled red and meteors rained down on Earth, the world changed forever. Twenty-five percent of the population awoke with extraordinary powers, and a new age of heroes—and villains—was born.
Silas Noir, the 18-year-old heir to a powerful billionaire empire, didn’t ask for this life. Alone, isolated, and cynical, he discovered an ability that set him apart: he can manipulate shadows, slipping through darkness, striking from nowhere, and disappearing without a trace. Known only to the public as the enigmatic Shadow Crawler, he patrols the city with sharp sarcasm, deadly precision, and a tendency to do things his own way.
But power is never uncontested. When a brilliant, calm, and equally formidable powered woman enters the scene, Silas finds himself challenged in ways he never anticipated. As criminals with unimaginable abilities rise, and a mysterious, bloodthirsty force awakens beneath the chaos, Silas must decide whether he will be a hero, a monster, or something in between.
Darkness hides many secrets. Some are alive. Some are waiting. And some… will crawl.
In a world of light, only shadows tell the truth.
