An Epic Tale of War and Wilderness

humans, wolves, coyotes and coy-wolves fighting for the valley

Three hundred years after humanity destroyed itself, the valley began to heal — until mankind returned. When wolves see the rebirth of human technology as a threat, they move to wipe it out, igniting a brutal war between species. Caught in the middle is Ember, the last of the engineered coy-wolves, hunted by wolves, mistrusted by her own kind, and bound to an ancient power older than memory. As fire and flood tear the valley apart, Ember must decide whether vengeance will save her world… or finish destroying it.

27 chapters of relentless action.Three hundred years in the future, the last survivors of humanity struggle to rebuild in a valley ruled by predators. Wolves move to eliminate them. Coyotes fight to endure. And war threatens to erase them all. Arik, a haunted human hunter, carries a dangerous secret — he can understand the voices of predators. Ember, the last of the engineered coy-wolves, can speak to him in return. Bound by an ability no one else possesses, they stand between extinction and balance, forced to decide whether justice means survival… or sacrifice.

From the Wasteland

Matthew DeGelleke, author

Matthew DeGelleke

At 60 years old, I've walked the wild paths of America with my brother, seen the harsh beauty of the rainforest, and witnessed survival in its rawest forms. Originally from Upstate New York, my journey across the United States taught me that life is a constant struggle—and that's exactly what I write about.

Now based in Las Vegas, I channel my real-life adventures into gritty, uncompromising stories. "Ember- The coy-wolf Chronicles" is my vision of a world stripped to its essence: survival, violence, and the will to endure in the unforgiving jungle.
