(“This is a book about madness. Madness is hard to understand for those who aren’t mad. It’s impossible to describe once you are. So, perhaps this book is about failure. Failure of communication. Failure of empathy. The failure that is love.”)
The world is unravelling. Cities descend, the skies are closing, and the future has been stolen by those who can afford eternity. Ryul, newly immortal, drifts through the ruins of her home, numb with guilt and longing for an end that will not come.
Until Erna, the assassin who killed her parents, steps across the threshold of her life.
Death, in a beautiful human shape.
Together, she and Erna trace the edges of a dying world—through riots and catacombs, fleeting memories and inevitable betrayals—seeking not salvation but the fragile shimmer of connection.

Reviews
Ryul's Last Years on Earth:
"A thought-provoking and plausible exploration of what could happen to the Earth and humanity if a minority of people became immortal. I was hooked from the first disturbing scene. I really enjoyed reading this because it's refreshing to have an anti-heroine or two leading the narrative. Unsettling and compelling."
"This book is unlike any I’ve ever read."
"Ryul's Last Years on Earth has an opening that’s truly well-crafted. There’s an assassin sitting in the kitchen, eating Chinese noodles next to the bodies of the parents she just killed, waiting for the daughter to deliver the news in person. "I didn’t know what you’d like, so I ordered the same as me. It’s cinematic and emotionally spot-on!"
"This is the second time I have been absolutely blown away by Adrienne's world building. I had the same experience with Paladin and Necromancer. She has such a gift for building these vivid, imaginative worlds that just absolutely immerse you."
