A dystopian novel series set in post-nuclear CanadaLaunching the first book There are moments where a project stops being an idea and becomes a world. After years of development, detours, rewrites, and reinvention, Warriors of the Last Days – Book I: THE REFUSAL is no longer in the making. It is ready. It is launching! We have officially received our ISBNs. That single administrative milestone unlocks everything that follows: distribution...
The Warriors of the Last Days ARC Program Is Now Open Montreal is gone. What grew in its place is something that shouldn’t exist. That’s the world of Warriors of the Last Days: a four-book dystopian series set in post-nuclear Montreal, where survival is managed by systems nobody voted for, power hides inside procedures, and the most dangerous thing in the ruins might not have claws...
Exclusive First Look COVER REVEAL Book I: The Refusal I’ve been sitting on this cover reveal for a while now, and I’ll be honest, it’s been hard to keep quiet about it. Warriors of the Last Days started as a question I couldn’t shake: what happens to ordinary people when everything collapses at once? Not just governments or infrastructure, but the assumptions we live by:...
PROLOGUE TO A PROLOGUE TEASER Some scenes write themselves as film long before anyone points a camera at them. The prologue to Warriors of the Last Days was always one of those scenes. Two men. A bunker. A command that can’t be taken back. I knew from the moment I wrote it that it wanted […]
Making the Teaser That Nearly Broke Us When we began work on the teaser for The Spark, we expected intensity. We did not expect resistance. Book IV of Warriors of the Last Days is about ignition: pressure accumulated over three volumes finally finding flame. It felt only right that its teaser would burn hotter, move faster, strike deeper. Instead, we stalled. The iconic Montreal Olympic Stadium...
Why This TEASER Trailer for the Drift Felt Different Of the three teasers we’ve created so far for Warriors of the Last Days, The Drift was the easiest. And the most fun. Not because it was simpler. Because it was looser. You can watch the teaser here: THE DRIFT TRAILER The Refusal required precision. It introduced the philosophy: engineered ritual, structural obedience, institutional control...
Inside Book II of Warriors of the Last Days When we began building the teaser trailer for Exodus, Book II of Warriors of the Last Days, we knew it had to feel different from The Refusal trailer. Book I was containment: corridors, ritual, engineered obedience. Exodus is movement. You can watch the teaser trailer here: THE EXODUS TRAILER Expanding the World Beyond the Stadium The first trailer...
We Had 90 Seconds to Explain a World That Took Years to Build. When we started designing the first trailer for The Refusal, we faced a problem: How do you explain a philosophy in a minute and a half? Not just a plot. Not just characters. A worldview. Watch it here: THE REFUSAL TRAILER The Ink Was Never Just Ink The spreading black forms in the trailer’s text portions aren’t decoration. They...
DYSTOPIAN TROPES OF BOOK II: THE EXODUS BOOK I TROPES BOOK III TROPES BOOK IV TROPES WANT TO KNOW MORE? CORE STRUCTURAL TROPES The Exodus Without a Promised Land Movement is necessary, not hopeful. There is no destination that improves moral conditions—only zones of different failure. Subversion: Exodus is loss-minimization, not deliverance. Flight Escalates the Threat Leaving safety increases...
Welcome to Warriors of the Last Days This space is the threshold. You didn’t arrive here by accident. Warriors of the Last Days is a dystopian systems-fiction series set in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in the ruins of a world that did not end in fire or prophecy, but in optimization. A future where infrastructure outlived belief, where survival became procedural, and where people learned—slowly...
A dystopian novel series set in post-nuclear Canada
Stéphane Roy is a lifelong reader and writer with a deep love for science fiction, apocalyptic worlds, and tightly constructed mysteries. This is his first novel. He lives in the Yukon with his dog and his aquarium, where long winters, silence, and wide, sometimes glowing, skies leave plenty of room for imagining the end of the world, and what might come after it. He is also waiting, with cautious optimism, for the aliens to finally reveal themselves and straighten us all out.
