In the desolate planet of Ekon resides two species: X’zane and Ukwe Elves. The Ukwe Elves colonized the planet decades ago and remained the dominating force, capable of mechanizing engineered vehicles and advanced weaponry. The X’zane people are humanoid species with primitive knowledge that limited them to further advance their nation. The X’zane tried to claim their planet back by organizing an uprising, but with the Elven nation’s war-bred soldiers and weaponry, the X’zane were defeated.
Decades after the war, an X’zane boy is in search of his mother. He embarks on a journey filled with tragedy, betrayal, and discovery of a new power destined to shape the future of their nation and home-world.
A remarkable fusion of science fiction, fantasy, and adventure, The Shadow Immortals is set to spark a fresh generation of avid readers of this genre.

”John writes beautifully when he describes the scenery and setting to a point that there is a cinematic feel to how it was written with the camera focusing and defocusing on the foreground and then onto the background. I felt it when I was reading it and I loved it.”
- C.J. Edmunds
“The Shadow Immortals is like reading Rick Riordan, the author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.”
- Vince Mendoza
