‘Primal Awakening’ opens hundreds of years after modern civilization fell to a man-made plague and disastrous genetic experiments. Nic Mercer, a former special forces operative, wakes from centuries of cryogenic sleep into a world that has reverted to medieval technology and brutal survival. The brilliant but radical geneticist Emmanuel Baatig created genetically superior humans and creatures using animal DNA, and his followers now rule what remains of humanity through the Federation of Restoration Empire.

Nic finds himself hunted, enslaved, and caught between warring factions in a landscape populated by genetically modified monsters and desperate survivors. With the help of allies like Ember Kayler, daughter of a ruthless warlord, and Dorian Fisk, a bounty hunter from the Tsu’Don tribe, Nic must navigate political intrigue, deadly pursuit, and his own guilt over a violent past. The key to stopping the FRE lies in an old journal containing secrets to the most powerful genetic weapons ever created, and everyone wants it.
