"I had been perfectly content with my mundane life. I read my books, browsed the internet, and prepared for a reasonable career in a world where that stuff still mattered. I was a typical, geeky, teenaged boy who loved his mom and spent too much time daydreaming about his twin sister's best friend. But now, human civilization seems to have disappeared. Instead of playing video games and studying for high school, I'm trying to stay alive and avoid being eaten by mythical creatures who shouldn't even exist. With the help of my twin and her bff, I'm struggling to become the man I need to be in a world that has forever changed."

When supernatural beings outnumber humans, who will fight for the survival of the species? Is it already too late, or is there still hope for THE HUMAN?
