The refugees of Dome Six believed the outside world was a deathscape, but they were wrong. It’s worse than that. Alone in a world they’ve never known, the survivors of Dome Six are desperate and aimless. Hunted by enemies seen and unseen, a deadly dilemma threatens to end their journey before it even begins. In the shadow of Pacifica, largest of the Northern Cities, an alliance with a mysterious group called The Phage reveals how much has changed since the Dome Project began. Cytocorp’s iron grip on what remains of America seems unbreakable. Their twisted vision for the future, inevitable. But a quiet revolution is already underway. Its enigmatic leader’s plan would break Cytocorp’s power and liberate the remaining Domes. Joined by Novi, an exiled biomodder with intimate knowledge of Cytocorp’s terrifying new tech, their journey into the belly of the beast offers a chilling glimpse into the Company’s plans—and the impossible odds against them. Into the Burn continues the high-stakes dystopian adventure begun in Dome Six. If you like nonstop action, scary biotech, and complex characters, you’ll love this second chapter of C.P. James’ breakout series, The Cytocorp Saga.

As the world descends into chaos, a fractured resistance makes its final, desperate play to stop Cytocorp and free the Domes. Having landed a critical blow against Cytocorp, Novi, Owen, and the rest of the Phage hope to break the Company’s power once and for all. Their ambitious plan would prevent the Synthiont from taking over the world and potentially spur the Northern Cities to rise up. But morale is flagging and so is their faith in the plan — not least of which because it’s borderline insane. Not only must they break into a heavily guarded data pipeline, but Novi must risk everything to sneak into the Reach, contact the Globalist resistance, and get her adoptive brother out of the city — all without getting herself or her team killed. When a surprise message from distant allies alerts the Phage to a mysterious facility, they believe it may be the final key to destroying Cytocorp once and for all. With a new leader in place, they prepare to set everything in motion. Meanwhile, Cytocorp’s endgame is nearly at hand. World leaders, desperate for answers only the Company can provide, converge on Pacifica for a summit that could alter the course of human history. Ethical lines are drawn as Chief Executive Sharpe outlines the steep price of saving the world. As chaos erupts on the streets of Pacifica and the Phage squares off against Cytocorp, the fate of the civilized world hangs in the balance. Will Dome Six finally be avenged or is the Company still one step ahead?
