Scourge of Dawn:
Ashen Genesis
After a world war nearly destroyed the earth, a fractured humanity hid underground, where over the course of two-thousand-years they diverged into separate species with different technological capabilities. They later emerged into a chaotic world where civilization mixes cultures as if from across time. Incarnated dangers haunt every corner and the supposed damned and divine walk the earth.
In this world, Colton Toa, an unlucky teen on the run, meets a strange girl, with psychic powers, who helps him discover his own altered DNA induced unnatural abilities. As civil war breaks out, he knows if he stays to help his childhood friend, Liam Lewis, he risks facing the gallows, and must learn to fight for the life he wants rather than run from the challenge.
About the Author
Caleb DM Smith is an author, filmmaker, and lifelong adventurer. Scourge of Dawn: Ashen Genesis marks the debut of his first book series.
While bringing his stories to life on the page, Caleb also stays busy behind the camera. He’s worked in a wide range of roles on film sets—from writer, director, and DP, to editor, costumer, and prop master—collaborating on dozens of music videos and short films and learning from some of the industry’s top talent.
Originally from Utah (with a couple of adventurous years in Texas), Caleb has a passion for travel and draws inspiration from the places he’s explored and the people he’s met along the way.
He likes to put it simply: he either writes about adventures—or goes out and lives them.
