RISERBlack swirling holes churning madly in the center of every corpse. This is how eighteen-year-old Chelsan Derée sees the deceased. Her ability to connect to the black spinning holes allows her to control every dead thing within a four-mile radius.
But that’s the least of her problems. It’s 2320 and Chelsan Derée has to survive another year of high school, which for her is pure and utter torture, mainly due to the fact that her schoolmate Jill Forester’s favorite activity is making Chelsan’s life a living hell. If that isn’t enough, Chelsan’s impossible crush on Ryan Vaughn makes her brain do somersaults on a regular basis, especially since she is positive he doesn’t know she exists. And being eighteen Chelsan has to deal with the pressure of whether or not she should take a little pill called Age-pro, which cures aging, making the world eighteen forever and highly over-populated. When Chelsan’s mother, Janet, is brutally killed, along with everyone else in her trailer park, Chelsan finds out that she was the intended target. Chelsan must use her power to raise and control the dead to save herself, protect her friends and take down the man responsible for murdering her mother. |
REAPERReaper is the second book in the best selling teen series The Riser Saga.
Chelsan Derée thinks she’s finally going to be able to live the normal, healthy life of a teenage girl who can control the dead. She thinks she’s free of psychotic grandparents, serial killers and government assassins. But no such luck - a child named Elisha, who desperately needs Chelsan to rescue her from an I.Q. Farm, is disrupting Chelsan’s dreams. Chelsan has to help Elisha because she knows the harrows of I.Q. Farms: secret warehouses full of genius children used as lab rats and given Age-pro (a pill that freezes the aging process, making them children forever). It’s only been two months since Chelsan’s first traumatic ordeal, but she still has to deal with the drama of constant fighting between her best friend Bill and her boyfriend Ryan and having to deal with her grandparents (which is saying a lot since they’re always trying to kill her!). But all of these things are going to seem pretty minor when Chelsan discovers a plot so horrifying that it may destroy the world. She will have to learn more about her power to raise and control the dead so she can stop the evil that threatens everything she's ever cared about. |

The Final Chapter of 'The Riser Saga' & 'The Atlas Series'
Kala Hicks has been Atlas for 300 years, committing unspeakable acts every four days to keep the world spinning, and she’s mentally exhausted. Her only shred of hope to end it is a prophecy that says the Atlas curse will be broken by Chelsan Derée. Upon Kala seeing her newest mission in a vision, she knows it’s finally time.
Chelsan, on the other hand, not only has no idea that gods, demons and angels exist, but that she is the one person in the entire world who can break Kala’s curse, and she has zero clue as to how to do it. What’s worse is that Kala’s newest mission is something that Chelsan would destroy everything in her path to make sure that Kala fails at.
Will Chelsan fulfill the prophecy to save Kala from her curse? Or will she let the world burn to save the one she loves most?
