The sins will rise. . . A futuristic retelling of the Pandora myth, The Chronicles of Sin follows those gifted with the seven deadliest sins as they strive to return the balance, take power from the Virtuous, and save their world. Rebellion is part one in The Chronicles of Sin, a futuristic retelling of the Pandora myth. This three in one volume includes Virtuous Sins, A Day of Wrath, and Age of Greed. Virtuous Sins The world will be forever changed when lust meets intent. . . Three hundred years after the last of the great wars, the Virtuous Magistrate is on the verge of enforcing a perfect world. Darci never questioned the intention of her overlords, until her sister was marked as an Undesirable and brutally murdered by Navita Jacqueline. Armed with the power of her mind, Darci illegally enters the City to obtain vengeance. She knows certain death awaits her, but she cannot remain silent, not when the next Undesirable could be anyone, at any time, for any reason. Atticus is a Luxurian, the embodiment of carnal Sin and unwilling slave to Navita Jacqueline's judgment. What free time he is allowed, he devotes to hunting his overlords, and sowing anarchy within the City walls. There is no one, male or female, immune to his power, and then he encounters Darci. She sees into the forbidden corners of his mind and confronts him with the chaos only a Virtue turned rogue can unleash. A Day of Wrath The tides of war will turn when patience will no longer wait... Two years ago, Emerick was framed for the murder of hundreds of rebel refugees and exiled from the Insurgency. He is done waiting to be forgiven for crimes only his former Masters could have committed. Fionn, the Insurgency's commander, possessing the power of wrath, wants him dead for betraying her. If he returns, she will execute him. If he remains in exile, thousands of innocents will be massacred. To save the growing rebellion, he will unleash the very essence of wrath, and pray to the gods the power of a patient man can contain her. Age of Greed Chaos will reign when greed rises from the ashes... Eight years ago, Michael was an assassin of the Magistrate, forced into servitude until his iron heart was lost to Harley, an enchanting Virtue who never should have cracked his armor. When their illicit affair was discovered, he gave his life and his sanity so she could escape. Now, after escaping the Magistrate's dungeons, he refuses to admit how fragile his mind truly is. When the God of Greed appears on the Insurgency's radar, Michael volunteers for the mission into the nuclear wasteland that was once the British Isles to locate the Sin before the Magistrate's military does. Michael never expected to find Harley alive and married to a tyrant or the very Sin he's there to capture is his son. With the Magistrate bearing down on all sides, he must find a way to save his son and the woman who still holds his heart. If only he can keep the pieces of his mind from destroying them all. A futuristic retelling of the Pandora myth, The Chronicles of Sin follows those people gifted with the seven deadliest sins as they strive to return the balance, take power from the Virtuous and save their world.
