Mortal

In Mortal, the second installment of The Books of Mortals saga by Ted Dekker and Tosca Lee, the tranquil facade of a post-apocalyptic world conceals a chilling truth: everyone alive is actually dead, stripped of true humanity. Nine years after Rom Sebastian's resurrection through an ancient potion, he leads a burgeoning faction of Mortals amidst rising threats from The Order, which has unleashed an elite army to eliminate them. As division and betrayal simmer within his ranks, the fragile hope for humanity faces imminent destruction, setting the stage for a gripping tale of dark desires and high stakes.
