The first BRUTALPUNK novel ever created - a savage fusion of grimdark, cyberpunk, sci-fi, and survival horror.
In the underbelly of Aethernova, shadows rule and power is bought with blood. Morrick is a brawler who fights with the fury of a war machine. Nero is a rebel punk hacker with a mechanical arm and an unrelenting drive to tear the megalopolis's masters from their throne. Astra, weaponized by the Creed, now runs from the very order that built her. Together, they face a world where mercy is weakness, violence is currency, and survival means stepping deeper into the darkness.
BRUTALPUNK - the very first novel of its kind, a term coined by Alphonse Crowley - is a savage fusion of grimdark, cyberpunk, sci-fi, and survival horror, crafted to hurl readers through blood-soaked streets, rusted steel, and desperate battles for life. Fans of Mad Max, Blade Runner, and The Road will find themselves in familiar territory, only sharper, dirtier, and far more unforgiving. Inside, you'll meet anti-heroes you won't forget, a living, breathing world brimming with lore, and a relentless pace that never lets you breathe. This is not a story for the faint of heart. It's for readers who crave grit, chaos, post-apocalyptic danger, and the raw thrill of survival against impossible odds. Once you step into the darkness, there's no turning back.
This is the first book of the Darkness Trilogy, the opening chapter of the Brutal Planet Universe™.
