In a world ravaged by radiation and the remnants of war, Dylan is far from a classic hero. A lieutenant with a tainted past, he's just trying to survive the ruins of a dying world... until the day he wakes up bound and surrounded by the mutilated corpses of his comrades.
Captured by monstrous creatures, he soon realizes he’s been transported to another world. A world far more dangerous, far more brutal—where only the strong survive, and even monsters are hunted. Saved in extremis by Maggie, his commanding officer, he begins a desperate escape. Their only hope may lie in their encounter with Élisa, an elf abandoned by her kin, and their discovery of a mysterious power: anima gems—stones imbued with spiritual essence that can enhance body and soul, and unlock the path to awakening.
Hey there! Shameless author here. This is my second book, and it’s the biggest project I’ve written so far—or at least I think so, as I believe my writing style has evolved. How do you define a harem? For this second book, here’s the adventure: Dylan, an eccentric guy who views the world through his own logic, raised and hardened in a ruined world, never expected to be transported to a world that’s even worse—but entirely different. In this new world, he discovers he can grow stronger. With his commander, Maggie, they’ll confront death itself to avoid being trampled by the powerful forces that rule this new realm.
