Lanternlight

Lanternlight is a novel that represents half of the first step in the series The Branches Progression. It takes place in the same city and coincides with events in Dark Shade of Gold. It follows several characters in the less-privileged world of Grandport's organised crime, delving into the gritty and intense lives of those who owe their existence to another. Tragedy and misfortune lead to revelation and risk for Radimus, whose extraordinary abilities begin to earn him respect and attention from the city, and a love interest, Rose, whose background is surrounded in the mysteries of the underworld. Larx, a gang leader finds out exactly what he will do for his drug, which could mean the murder of his own family. Nothing ends well.
