Shadows of the Reich — A Seven-Part Series

Following the debut of RESIST, Raven & Blade Press will expand its alternate-history universe with Shadows of the Reich — an ambitious eight-book saga that pulls back the curtain on a world descending into darkness. Spanning nearly a century of alternate history, this series reveals the hidden struggles, forgotten voices, and shadowed roads that lead directly into — and far beyond — the events of RESIST.

Each installment follows a different individual whose life has been irrevocably shaped by the reach of Nazi Germany and the echoes of its empire. Their experiences are unique, their choices their own — yet together, their paths intertwine into a vast tapestry of fear, loyalty, betrayal, and the slow, inevitable rise of resistance.

Shadows of the Reich is more than a companion to RESIST — it is the foundation of the saga. Across eight volumes, readers will witness the Reich’s shadow tighten its grip, hope flicker and falter, and the first sparks of rebellion ignite. With every story, the stakes rise, the world deepens, and the darkness grows — until finally, the threads converge on the explosive events of RESIST and the wars that follow.

This series captures both the intimate battles of individuals fighting to endure and the sweeping forces of history reshaping the world around them. Together, these stories reveal how single choices — made in the dark — can echo across generations and alter the course of destiny.

Shadows of the Reich is the promise of a universe revealed in full: one story at a time — each darker, sharper, and more compelling than the last.

Expanding beyond the core saga, Shadows of the Reich: Global is a compendium of interconnected short stories that illuminate the wider world of the series — from the frozen battlefields of Siberia to the shattered cities of the Americas, from the streets of Tokyo to the deserts of Africa. Each tale offers a glimpse into the global reach of the Reich’s shadow and the countless lives caught in its wake. Together, these stories deepen the mythology, broaden the scope, and reveal that resistance — in all its forms — is not confined to one nation, but burns across the world.
