The Inverted: Rise of the Unchosen

Caspian Gray turned a hundred years old. In this world, that means exactly one thing: you get shoved through a portal into the wilderness and told to have a nice trip. Officially, it's called the Centennial Journey — a rite of passage, the chance of a lifetime. Unofficially, Caspian's starting to suspect it's something closer to population control. Just monsters the size of mountains and a growing certainty that his group was never meant to make it out alive.

Back in the capital, Clara's fighting for her life in front of hundreds of thousands… of faeries. Sick and twisted bunch. The empire's sanctioned hero trials are broadcast live — chaotic, impossible to look away from. Her only real edge is a suit of living armor no one else dared to claim, and a partner she might actually like.

Two survivors from Earth, dropped into the same broken world. What's waiting when their paths finally cross? Hopefully not some sort of weird hermit with opinions about shoes.
