BECOMING AN IMMORTAL HAS A PRICE...

Eighteen-year-old Brindall Harper never imagined he would fail his rite of passage called The Day of the Nail. Now marked as an immortal, he is forced to lead a decades-long war that rages over control of the fabled Skylight System orbiting in earth's atmosphere. Suddenly, everything is on the line, including his family's life. However, victory means a one-way ticket to the utopian haven for him and his loved ones if he can survive the deadly war.

Brindall is sent to an elite war academy to hone his skills, where he is teamed with several other young immortals. As they prepare to lead the deadly campaign, Brindall begins to notice cracks in the so-called 'utopia' they fight for. There are undercurrents of manipulation-someone is trying to control him and the other powerful immortals for a more sinister purpose. The lines of reality get even blurrier when they face 'dark immortals' on the battlefield.

Brindall seeks the truth behind his immortal heritage, a truth that not only threatens his mission, but the very existence of his ancient race. He soon finds himself at the heart of a grim conspiracy that could unravel the foundations of the war itself. With the clock ticking and the fate of his family hanging in the balance, Brindall faces a harrowing truth: if he fails...the human race may not survive.

Legend speaks of a prophesied figure who will unlock something of immense power. Known only as the Skylight Fallout, this special person remains a mystery...at least until the Century Eclipse.

Four long years have passed since Jet Stroud's days as a student at Skylight University. Now he finds himself in the middle of a war between two clans of an ancient race known as the Heliographi. As the newest member of the Lucem, he now has physically and mentally enhanced abilities and is sworn to defend the Skylight System against their mortal enemies, the Atrum.

But Jet struggles to master his new abilities and finds it difficult to keep up with his training. His duties also include protecting his warden, Kamber Caster, as she begins her first semester at Skylight University. But secretly, Jet is keeping a watchful eye on his old friend, Cutter Jade, knowing that the Atrum will stop at nothing to gain the upper hand, including kidnapping and murder.

When the Skylight System's president tasks the Lucem with investigating several stolen rare-earth shipments, Jet discovers that a bounty has been placed on his head. As assassins target him, he begins to question his abilities after several attempts on his life nearly succeed. Is he strong enough to protect his friends, or will they end up suffering because of his inability?

As the Century Eclipse draws near, the Lucem suspect that the Atrum are planning something sinister. Fearing disaster, the Lucem must take up their oath and protect the citizens of Skylight. Stars collide when Jet faces off against his old classmates and he is forced to decide the fate of those dearest to him.

Who is the true Skylight Fallout and what will this person reveal? Can the Lucem defend Skylight against the evil plots of the Atrum? One thing is certain. The second phase of The Prism Effect will be set into motion and neither the Atrum nor the Lucem can change their destiny...or can they?

Just beyond Earth's atmosphere, orbiting like a shining beacon of hope, is the celebrated Skylight University and only the brightest students are accepted into its hallowed halls.

Not surprisingly, Jet Stroud can hardly believe it when he receives his acceptance letter. After all, who would want a kid with glowing eyes and a deadly disease called 'The Youthful Death' on their campus? Thanks to his rare condition known as ephebus mortem, Jet has always been avoided and feared because of his eyes. When he learns the legend claims he will die before his twenty-fourth birthday, his excitement at being accepted into Skylight University is suddenly crushed.

Determined to find answers, Jet quickly picks himself up. Accompanied by another kid from his hometown, a loner named Cutter Jade, they seek out the other three students with ephebus mortem. Despite their differences, the small group develops a shaky friendship and begins a quest to find a cure.

But not all is as it seems at Skylight University. Mysterious shadows lurk in the hallways and bizarre visions of serpents and prisms haunt Jet's dreams. While reading the obituary of a former student with ephebus mortem, Jet discovers several clues hidden in a trilogy of old paintings. As the group follows the breadcrumbs left behind by this former student, their quest takes an unexpected and deadly turn.

The pace to find clues quickens when strange voices, ghostly apparitions and bizarre events threaten to splinter the small group apart. With the semester roaring to a close, and tensions running high, Jet fears they may not survive long enough to crack the code.

Could the clues hidden in the paintings hold the cure to the strangest disease ever known to the human race? Can Jet and the others unravel the mysteries of ephebus mortem in time? In the end, Jet discovers something so profound that it will change his life forever.
