The epic saga of Mercy Rising continues with The Return where the Great Event from Grant Us Mercy comes full circle, revealing what the government has been up to these last twenty years.




Mercy barely returns to Zion, heartbroken and lost without Orion, when a messenger comes from the land they once called The Forbidden with the news of the return. Torn between her responsibility between Zion and where her heart lies, she must navigate a world she has only heard about in stories from the World Before.




Orion has just won the freedom of his people, renaming the coalition that Meyers had raised him to take over, Liberty, a land of freedom. Already overwhelmed with running an entire population and doing so without Mercy by his side, Orion now has to contend with a new threat.




Governor Dutton, now calling himself the president, comes to make his claim on Liberty and all of what was once known as the United States of America. Of course, people distrust another ruler, especially one that comes as if the World Before still exists the way it once was.




Dutton calls for Blake to pay a long held debt, but Blake wants to keep Zion a secret, a safe haven secluded away from the coming political war. 




The balance of safety and freedom comes to a head, with the people of Zion left to make a difficult choice: Hope to remain hidden and outside of the upcoming war or give up their solidarity to fight for the common cause of freedom. 




Mercy Rising is a clean, dystopian survival fiction series based on the children, now grown, from Grant Us Mercy, a post-apocalyptic survival fiction series. If you haven’t read Grant Us Mercy yet, read it now while you wait for Mercy Rising: The Return to go live. You’ll appreciate the gripping back story.
