THE NEW WORLD: BLACK FRIDAY - BOOK 1
Three years after the Fall, Black Friday is no longer about sales.
It is about survival.
On November 28, 2053, Henry Williams leaves his family behind for what should be a simple supply run through the ruins of Baltimore. He needs medicine, batteries, gifts for his children, and whatever pieces of the Old World can still be bought with marbles.
Instead, Henry finds something waiting in the darkness.
A Black Shadow attaches itself to him, changing his right arm and giving him abilities he never asked for. Soon, Henry is drawn into a hidden supernatural world of cursed objects, impossible bargains, haunted relics, and creatures that do not belong to anything created by X-17 or Black Rain.
At the center of it all stands the Broker-a mysterious force that always knows what Henry wants most and exactly what price he might be willing to pay.
Then Henry discovers the Widow's Chessboard, an ancient artifact connected to a nightmarish realm known as the Mourning Kingdom. Every move has a cost. Every bargain takes something. And some doors should never be opened.
To make it home to his wife and children, Henry must survive the night without surrendering the one thing the darkness truly wants:
his choice.
THE NEW WORLD: BLACK FRIDAY is a dark post-apocalyptic supernatural horror thriller about family, sacrifice, cursed artifacts, forbidden dimensions, and the terrible price of getting exactly what you wish for.
Ten boards. Ten doors. One debt.
