Set along the Colorado Rockies, The Fall of the Nine continues the struggle of Carnegie, Erin, and Santana as they continue their fight in a post-apocalyptic world. On the mend after their encounter, Carnegie and his friends start their journey from the outskirts of Denver and discover that the true evil is just awakening. As tensions escalate, Carnegie makes a choice that he will pay for in blood. Entering the post-bomb city, the Gnomes and other species of the Nine that have taken the Human world for their own continue to show the surviving humans that the Old World is gone, and it will never be the same again. With the arrival of the rulers of each race, Cheradyn’s identity is threatened and she must face demons of her own past to become the Faerie the New World needs her to be. As the world continues to reset, the Princess learns that she must protect the ones who have been there for her. Moving in the shadows, Nicholas contends with the darkness inside him and the greater evil comes to the foreground, inciting other dark beings to the anarchic tendencies they have always hoped would be unleashed. Somewhere in Texas, a young businessman fights the post-apocalyptic southwest, his companions, and a mysterious power inside him that threatens to tear him apart. Darkness is on the move as ancient secrets are revealed, but hope still finds a small place in the creeping void. Hope, however, is in short supply for the Nine. The true evil is revealed. He has planned this for centuries. The Nine are not prepared.
