"Since the announcement of Unbounded existence, the mortal world has quickly polarized. One faction wants all Unbounded--Renegade and Emporium--dead. Others worship them as gods who have come to save the world and bring it immortality. The tension between these groups is ready to explode. Meanwhile, the Emporium has a new player, one who has upped the stakes in the battle for humanity. Many innocent mortals are sacrificed as the Emporium Triad grabs...

Erin Radkey has always known the day would come when she would have to personally confront the Triad leader of the power-hungry Emporium. But she never thought it would be with a snake in her head that feeds on her energy. Or that she'd be in the company of an uncertain ally who might turn on her at any moment.
