LOGINSydney is falling. Under a storm-lit sky, a feral she-wolf queen commands the horde while her hulking direwolf champion stalks the quay. From the black water rises Gallus—the beaked, many-limbed demon of the deep—curling around the Opera House as if claiming a throne. Across the burning city, unlikely allies converge. Jake Michaels, bruised but unbroken, refuses to retreat. Jane—no longer just the girl he saved, but the hidden Guardian of the Light—carries a power the monsters fear. Scientist Brooke Mitchell of the research ship The Talamane has a history with Gabe, once defeating the demon Gallus with a desperate plan. Gabe Mitchell knows what it costs to face Gallus—and what it costs to survive him. From a cursed mirror and a forgotten labyrinth, and a three headed dog others answer the call. Their only hope is a run in the open, straight through Circular Quay to the Opera House steps. The enemy wants dominion. The city wants a miracle. And salvation will demand a price none of them are ready to pay. When worlds collide, someone must be sacrificed. A blistering crossover of monsters, myth, and heart, Worlds Collide: The Sacrifice delivers one night of impossible choices—for a city, for a family, and for the soul of the world.

The air tasted of iron and old storms. Stone pillars, twisted as if grown, punched from the shore like the knuckles of something buried deeper still. There was no light source, yet everything was seen: a sullen glow pressed outward from the rock itself, the way heat remembers a forge.On a throne hewn directly from the bedrock, Typhon sat.He did not merely occupy the cavern; he calibrated it. When he shifted, the lake leaned. When he breathed, the stalactites shivered and wept. His hair was a storm front poured down his spine; his eyes were furnaces behind obsidian glass. Coiled at the throne’s base, half in shadow and half in suggestion, lay Echidna—Mother of Monsters—her scales the colour of exti
They hadn’t made twenty metres through the main entrance of the storage bay. Storage boxes littered the way in. Using torches as their sources of light, they made their way towards the main hall. That was when everything failed. The first warning wasn’t sound. It was sensation. A deep electrical surge ran through the Opera House—not lightning, but load failure. Power bled sideways through damaged grounding mesh buried beneath the tiles, turning wet stone and exposed ribs into live paths. The building vibrated with it, a low metallic hum that rattled teeth and set nerves on edge. Gallus reacted at once. Water surged back towards the forecourt as pumps reversed under stress. Tiles at the lowest edge buckled. They all entered the main hall. In the centre was Gallus, with tentacles snaking around his body in anger. “Hey, ugly!” shouted Gabe. “Remember me?!” A tentacle burst from the flood and wrapped around Gabe’s chest. The impact lifted him clean off the stone and sent him int
Rain hammered the Opera House forecourt hard enough to flatten reflections and steal depth. The wide stone became slick, uneven, treacherous. Six people and a three-headed golden retriever walked into it without slowing. Jane ran up and faced off with the queen, and they were already in a fight. “You should have stayed gone,” the Queen said. “I am back; this time I am here to finish this once and for all.” She slid across the top step as the Queen’s claws tore sparks from stone where her head had been a heartbeat earlier. Jane rolled, came up low, already moving. The Queen stayed on her—fast, precise, never wasting motion. Jane slashed across her ribs with her batons and took a blow to the shoulder for it. Bone rang. She kept her feet. * * * Below them, the team advanced. Gabe went straight up the forecourt, boots slapping wet stone. Scott stayed a step behind him, Demonslayer low and close. Ellie held the right with Cerebus, one hand buried in the dog’s wet fur, the other n
George Street was no longer a street. It was a battlefield; cars and other vehicles were left abandoned, buses left askew, unladen and empty; the Hume Motorway (M31), Pacific Motorway, M4 Western Motorway, the Harbour Bridge (Bradfield Highway), the Cahill Expressway and all major arteries leading in and out of Sydney were jammed with empty traffic leading up to Market Street in all directions. All of the people of Sydney had vanished; it was desolate, quiet, too quiet. The city that had once been filled with thousands of people was now almost completely silent. Cars sat abandoned in the middle of the road. Buses had crashed into buildings. Traffic lights changed endlessly above empty intersections. Shopfronts were smashed, as if they had been looted, but not. Woolworths Town Hall was empty; a container of peanut Butter rolled on the ground. The aircon sounded out the silence. Town Hall Station was desolate; usually full of people, it was quiet, deathly quiet, except for pigeons and
Jane doe walked the lonely highway in an old brown jacket, a worn brown yarra hat and jeans with boots that had accepted mileage in her quest for self-discovery. A buckled sign rose from the haze:SYDNEY 62.Jane kept walking.An NRMA van hunched on the verge a kilometre ahead, a broken-down van wi

The picture filled the screen, then became the room.It was a squat brick stack a block off Broadway, wedged between a pawn shop and a barber who did more fades than taxes. The awning was sun-faded, the sign missing a bulb. Inside, the carpet stuck slightly on the lift, the air smelled of old timbe
