Angel's life on Portsmouth island may not be easy, but it sure is fun and he'd like to keep it that way. However, his reckless lifestyle is taking its toll on his already strained relationship with his girlfriend Nyx and best friend Alistair. So when he finally takes things too far and gets murdered in a fight, latent life-force manipulation abilities bring him back to life just for it to crumble beneath him. Angel must find a way to hide his new-found abilities from the mutant dictator Ivy who may want to absorb his life-force, or worse yet, force him to attend her Academy. He isn't about to fall in line any time soon, but hiding his powers may prove harder than he thinks. When a desperate and overwhelmed telepath, Kismet, joins them all on Portsmouth island,  all secrets are at risk of being exposed and lives are turned upside down. ** This is a rewrite of Glass Pomegranate Vol: I previously posted. Apologies to anyone awaiting the sequel, it is on its way (as well as two more books) after this rewrite. I had started it, but realized the original draft was too shaky to build a sequel off of and wanted to start again with a stronger piece of writing. ** Cover art is generated via chatgpt and nightcafe
