Medieval meets cyberpunk in a future where a man-made virus has altered human physiology, rendering most modern weaponry obsolete. In the aftermath, specialized melee arms have resurged to become the norm.  Yuna Vyx has waited years for this chance. An underworld skilled duel where the winner either absorbs their rival syndicate or is granted an immense monetary sum as tribute. She wants the credits. For with it, she can finally free her sister Reina from an encased medical bed via an entirely new body. Plus, she may also really love fighting to a fanatical degree, her family would lament.  Yuna’s met by a deafening crowd of gamblers when she enters the arena. Then, the unthinkable happens. An ear-piercing boom echoes. Her long-awaited opponent falls dead. Amongst the ensuing mayhem, she confirms their demise. Seemingly, by a gunshot, of all things. A beyond rare sight for well over a decade now. Unlike the fear-fueled chaos surrounding her, a sole thought permeates Yuna’s mind. The painful death she will grant the assassin who stole her prey.  What readers can expect: A story far beyond the scope of the blurb. Criminal syndicates who take too much inspiration from the past. Heavily fleshed out characters. All-powerful corporations. Cool fights. A close family.
