CHANNILLO
Series Description:
The world was still recovering from the Covid pandemic of a decade earlier when Ebola-X first emerged in a remote village in Kyrgyzstan.
Within weeks the virus had traveled to every corner of the globe. Within months, it had killed more than three-quarters of the world’s population.Including Zilla Harms.
Unlike other pandemics though, there was nothing natural about Ebola-X. The contagion seemed to be a chimera; the X components of its viral DNA unknown. It bore only a superficial resemblance to the lethal viruses created in secret underground labs and classified government facilities and the scientists trying to decode its secrets were baffled. In the absence of facts—or maybe in spite of them—speculation ruled.
Environmentalists blamed global warming for unleashing the retro virus. Doomsday cults pointed to apocalyptic scripture. The truth turned out to be stranger than any paranoid conspiracy theory when the man responsible for the worldwide genocide unleashed by Ebola-X came forward to claim credit for his work.
He called himself “the Reaper.”The Reaper was a self-taught mage of immense power and even larger ambition, a soulless, pitiless being whose master plan was to eliminate all he labeled “the Unworthy” and to kickstart the evolution of a superior, magic-augmented master race—the Afterwitches.
Zilla Harms was reborn as an afterwitch, but she’s not onboard with her creator’s destructive agenda. Feared by survivors, and scorned by her own kind, Zilla is now on a mission to find and kill the Reaper before he can embark on the final phase of his demented plan.If Zilla can’t stop the Reaper, then the rest of humanity is doomed.

Author Bio For Kat Parrish:
Kat Parrish is a former reporter who prefers making things up! She mostly writes urban fantasy, fantasy romance, ad space opera-ish science fiction.The Afterwitch Chronicles is something different--a mixture of horror and urban fantasy in the vein of Robert McCammon's Swan Song and Stephen King's The Stand.
Kat Parrish is a pen name because she writes a lot about vampires, shifters, and other monsters and doesn't necessarily want those books to come up when someone googles a news story she wrote.
She is fond of cats, dark chocolate, roses, and photography. Born in Washington D.C., she has traveled extensively and is currently a digital nomad based in Europe.
