Haemans Books in Order

The Haemans series is a dark dystopian fantasy set in a version of Russia where an old royal bloodline has unexpectedly returned. Prince Mikhail and Princess Milena Romanov are treated as public figures and given honorary titles, but their arrival brings something far more dangerous than a political curiosity. Through fame, media control, and deception, they popularize an addiction that changes the people who fall under its influence.

Those changed by it become haemans. They are stronger and faster than ordinary people, but their sense of restraint and ethics has been stripped away.

At the center of the first book is Sevrick Bykovsky, one of the few people to escape the new order. He hides in the forested outskirts of St. Petersburg with other survivors, trying to stay alive beyond the reach of the cities. But escape is not enough for Sevrick. His fiancée, Arinadya Tarasova, has been pulled into haeman life, and he cannot give up on bringing her back.

That personal goal gives the series its emotional core. Sevrick is not simply fighting a cruel regime from a distance. He is trying to reach someone he loves after the person she was seems to have disappeared. Arinadya's connection to the new royal world makes the rescue attempt even more painful and dangerous.

The first book, Haemans, follows the survivors as they face a country overtaken by this destructive culture. It mixes the pressure of a survival story with urban fantasy and a grim version of celebrity power. The threat does not stay neatly contained, and the people resisting it have limited safety, resources, and trust.

In Haemanism: The Spread, Princess Arinadya returns as the danger widens. Sevrick and his small band operate from an underground hideout while Mikhail pursues plans that put far more than Russia at risk. The series moves from an intimate rescue mission toward a larger fight against control, addiction, and world domination.

It is a tense, sometimes bleak story, but perseverance matters here. The characters are often dealing with loss and damage that cannot be easily undone. Readers should start with Haemans, since the sequel builds directly on Sevrick, Arinadya, the Romanovs, and the transformed world introduced there.
