  The city of Illharek teeters on the edge of war. Rival godsworn battle in both the Suburban streets and the Senate chambers. And in the fields and forests, a Taliri army plots its attack. 
   
   
   
  When a rebel faction of Taliri offers to help defeat Tal'Shik, Dekklis sends Snow and her partner, Veiko, north to Cardik's ruins. The Taliri say that Tal'Shik’s avatar lives in the ruins, and they want Snow and Veiko to kill her. Instead, they discover a city full of angry dead, betrayal, and an unexpected ally. 
   
   
   
  Meanwhile, Dekklis, now a senator, tries to keep the peace in Illharek by making allies of the powerful Academy and enlisting the Laughing God's help to control the Suburba. But when a godsworn assassin tries to kill her, the fragile peace shatters, and the Suburba erupts into violence. 
   
   
   
  As Dekklis restores order on the tip of a legion sword, Snow and Veiko concoct a plan to defeat Tal'Shik. But as the Taliri army bears down on Illharek, their alliance—and friendship—starts to crack. Because this isn't a battle for Illharek's streets, it's a battle for Illharek's soul. And some costs might be too high . . .

  Darphopia is the godless land. 
  God was felled many years ago, his power was stolen and dispersed across the land, and years later, Darphopia was born. This is a land of the future that is heavily rooted in the past. A land of monarchies, classes, and greed. The Darphopians have a culture all their own in which technology no longer exists; there is no need for it when everyone has access to the power of God, now deemed the Power Omnipotent. 
  In Bladelheim, one of the three reigning kingdoms, there is tension between Prince Riki Yamamoto and his brother Prince Akuni. The kingdom is on the verge of bankruptcy, and while Prince Akuni wishes to free the kingdom's Slaves, Prince Riki acknowledges that the Slave trade is their largest source of income and would rather find another way. However, when the king steps down, and Prince Akuni takes his place, he banishes his brother Riki to the wilds of Darphopia. 
  Stripped of the status of Royal, Riki travels across Darphopia wondering how he might take Bladelheim back from his brother and ensure that his kingdom remains safe under his rule. 
  And perhaps Riki will learn much about himself along the way. 
  The Darphopia: The Godless Land audiobook is narrated by the author and includes definitive depictions of the Darphopian accents and dialects as well as the official Darphopia song composed and performed on piano by the author herself. This audiobook does not include the Glossary and Spells chapters found in the print and ebook editions of the book. 
  Darphopia is a fantasy series about a land based on British and Japanese culture, and it depicts a people who are disenchanted with God and whose ancestors killed God and usurped His power.

  Trouble is brewing in Nexus, and for some reason, they think I can stop it. 
   
   
   
  Some people are born to greatness. My mother wanted to strangle me at birth. I've not had an easy life, not in a world that thrives on magic. Spells to reinforce buildings. Hexes to give you the face of a supermodel. Or so I've been told. 
   
   
   
  No one can hide their true face from me, and people get ugly when they find out my presence is the reason magic shrivels and dies. 
   
   
   
  It's not as cool as it sounds, so when I'm offered a job with the Special Monsters Unit, I take a chance and join a misfit crew to find out why the town of Nexus is a magnet for cryptids. 
   
   
   
  At least I'm part of a team. I'm making friends. I'm—finding out secrets about my past that are hard to handle. 
   
   
   
  But my emotional scars will have to wait until after we deal with the monsters. Especially those with human faces.

The themes presented in this fantastic tale are developed by Wells to pose serious critiques of the social stratification and ideas that existed in his own Victorian era.
