After a nasty breakup, Joel Auguste only has one goal: to join one of his favorite touring rock bands, Scyphozoa. Led by their enigmatic singer Asher Gaumont, the band is down a member. Their trombonist suddenly and mysteriously quit the band, and Joel seizes the opportunity out of sheer spite. He hates his home life, he hates college. He needs a change of scenery, and Scyphozoa fits the bill.

Only, something is looming underneath the band's near-perfect sheen. Evelyn and Adam Stone are rambunctious, Marty is a suspicious worm of a man, Asher only speaks cryptically, and Jessica drowns herself in cigarettes to forget something... Something dire, darker, and more gruesome than the human mind can comprehend.

Soon enough, Joel begins having visions from his past, only tainted by something evil. A dark presence stalks him from the shadows.

"Fate," it says.

In this stunning debut horror novel, Tyler Geis takes readers on a tour through the gates of hell and back. The lines between morality and fanaticism, life and death will be tested as Joel Auguste plays his heart out to the edge of the known universe. Witness the awesome, horrifying power of Scyphozoa.
