Poem of the Shadow Soul

The apocalypse's most feared Zombie Emperor falls in year seven—but death reveals his darkest secret. He was never the original soul, merely a second personality forged in hell's eternal flames. Millennia of torment stripped away his humanity, leaving only the instinct to kill. Bored of existence, he welcomed his end at the hands of the Alliance. Now Bai Luoyuan awakens three months before the apocalypse begins, armed with knowledge of humanity's darkest hour and a soul tempered by hell itself.
