About the Book
Ashes to Ashes is book one of the Dust to Diamonds Series, an edgy YA apocalyptic-horror six-book series. When the boundaries between good and evil, love and hate, and freedom and captivity are blurred, six scarred teens discover there's a big difference between being human and being humane.
The Seize has steeped the Earth in ash and imprisoned the souls of all mankind in the Deep, leaving a colorless world behind, where the boundaries between good and evil, love and hate, freedom and captivity are as blurred.
For Deuce, a self-proclaimed piece of shit and loner, being a recluse in an empty world is not all it's cracked up to be. Against all that he believes about himself and a barrage of self-loathing, he becomes the reluctant leader of five exiled survivors. Like him, they are mentally and physically scarred, and have no idea how to play nicely with others. One is the Devil's son, one is a Darkling who feeds off energy like a vampire coveting blood, one is a little girl who pulls the wings off butterflies, one is the criminally insane, and one is death,
being chased by the Reaper.
Plunged into a horrific world, where the best they can do is choose between nightmares, they fall victim to prisons, man-eating cornfields, and transporters that turn them inside out, flinging them through time and space. Attacked by Vacants, Trolls, Gargoyles, and Suffering Demons, nothing compares to being pawns in a perpetual war between two Eternals. To save the souls of mankind, the Exiled must drop the masks they are hiding behind and decide if there is a difference between being human and being humane.
They are the Banished, left in place, appointed to save the human race. Salvaging humanity brings them Saving Grace...
But first, they must identify the demons within, not the demons they chase.
Into LUNACY they are HURLED
Only a MADMAN Stays SANE in a MAD WORLD
