From Shadows to Strength is a gripping tale of resilience, sacrifice, and hope in the face of overwhelming adversity. Follow Marcus and his companions as they navigate a world turned upside down by the collapse of GenesisTech, a once-prominent tech facility. As chaos ensues and the building crumbles, Marcus is separated from his friends Sophia and Ethan, sparking a journey of survival and a relentless pursuit of justice.

The year is 2252, and Mars is swept up in a vicious revolution against the Commonwealth. Families are torn apart, and individuals must choose their side. Celise Valen, a Martian woman with everything at stake, makes her claim in the conflict, standing against a tide of fear that threatens to drag her down into despair.

Marcus has had it with the Space Agency and the flying chunk of experimental metal they said was a fully-functioning, state-of-the-art spaceship. The ship has had nothing but problems, and the Space Agency has done nothing but try to strand them out in deep space. Marcus is beyond angry, and he will do something about the Space Agency and Area 51 with Shaodw, Alera, Oliver, Lucia and Captain George's help.

Cyrus Longworth - the man who has carried the Son of the Dark Lord in his head since the day he was born. Sabrina Jennings - the woman who murdered her husband on their wedding night. Alfie Chapman - the British tourist with a psychopathic streak. And Danielle Roget - the French murderess who possesses his girlfriend's body. Unknown to all of them, they are caught in a tangled web of the Dark Lord's making, which on this night will bring them together and see the culmination of a diabolical plan stretching back to the dawn of time.

Marcus and Shadow are on their way to Umbra after stopping at Chivitas. They need to pick up their personal affects, and Marcus wants to grab some technology that he thinks will help them take over Earth more efficiently. Will the ship break again? Are the vampires still asleep on Umbra? They won’t know until they arrive at the land and go down to the surface.

Taking over Earth has proven to be a slow task. Conquering one city has taken the Carboni clan more than three years. In order to speed up the process, Marcus, Shadow, Alera, Oliver and Lucia must return to Umbra to harvest the planet’s technology for controlling living creatures. Once they have this technology, Marcus estimates that they can take over at least half of Earth within the next three years. The good news is that with the Space Agency and Area 51s help, Marcus has procured the use of a Hyperspace Spacecraft.

Marcus may have thought his biggest problem was ensuring that they didn't alert the humans to their food creation and family expansion activities while they worked on taking over Earth, but a new threat is on the horizon. The Space Agency wants to recreate Marcus' spaceship fuel, which requires massive amounts of space dust. The problem with that is that Earth's atmosphere doesn't kill a nervous system-destroying bacteria present in the space dust. Can Marcus delay them until he can take over the planet, or will he have to change Earth's atmosphere and hope he doesn't kill everything?

The homeless shelter is renovated and ready to open just in time. They have less than a month of blood bags left, but circumstances on Earth have proven more challenging than they expected. Marcus hopes that moving them deep into the woods outside Beach City will provide them the shelter and safety they need to create their food and start Clan Carboni.

Earth's sky is now purple, and the humans have noticed. It's not a rare sun effect or a trick on the eyes, and rioters demanding answers have appeared on the streets of Beach City. Marcus is less than thrilled, and has vowed not to put up with that behavior on another planet.
