Now let's check out Jason Pere's Calling the Reaper....
GENRE: Dark Fantasy
The time of the Unity has ended.
Now, the realm of man is stranded between Paradise and Purgatory. The Valkyrie and
Reaper battle over the fate of all who pass from the land of the living and
into the afterlife.
Eight mortal spirits from vastly different worlds tread the same, inevitable path toward their last, crucial decision. Within them all exists the defining conflict every man must face—to look upon the end of their life with glory and honor, or to give credence to their baser longings, calling the Reaper to their own demise.
In this rich, harrowing tale of pride, deceit, honor, vengeance, and redemption, each individual must battle their inner turmoil, facing the sacrifices they have made before their unavoidable end in the land of the living.
But their last day in life is also their first day of death amidst the terrors of the underworld. Lord Master Death wants them all…and the real battle has only just begun.

Excerpt:
Aristo
reached far within and blocked all the pain shooting through his being. I am
Praetorian, my flesh does my bidding. Again, he commanded his eyes to open.
When he finally managed to force them open, the agony consuming his head must
have felt very much like staring straight into the blazes of the sun. He felt
the tearing of skin as his world instantly turned from the darkest black to a
moment of brightest white. His eyes watered heavily and he blinked, trying to
clear away at least some of the dried blood which had sealed his eyes shut. For
several moments, everything was a blur, but then he could distinguish colors
and shapes again.
He
nearly wished that he had in fact been blinded; he would have at least been
spared the image before him. Aristo had been wounded in battle before, but
never like this. His body lay covered in a blanket of dried crimson. No one
would have known that he bore the deep purple uniform of the Praetorian Legion
had they even bothered to look at him. It was confounding that he had bled so
profusely and could still draw breath, still feel the beat of his heart within
his chest. A moment of warrior’s pride overtook him when he studied his twisted
form and realized the excruciating pain was not unwarranted. Then he
remembered.
Captured,
he thought. I’ve been captured.
