When survival means sacrifice, and love is the cost, can one endure without the other. A brutal tournament. A relentless Queen. One man's fight to survive. Jack Shaw thought he'd endured the worst life had to offer. The murder of his father, years of abuse, and a lifetime of hardship forged him into someone who could survive anything-or so he believed. But when he's forced into a deadly tournament orchestrated by a powerful alien Queen, survival becomes more than a test of strength-it's a fight for his very existence. Diane Reyes has also faced her share of trials. Marked by loss and driven by resilience, she quickly becomes Jack's fiercest ally in the Queen's brutal game. Together, they navigate nightmarish landscapes, treacherous challenges, and the ever-present threat of betrayal. But in a tournament where there can only be one winner, trust may be the most dangerous weapon of all. Every hundred years, the Queen plucks humans at random, throwing them into a deadly tournament on Earth. From the defenseless to the capable, no is spared. For the victor, a cruel reward awaits: they become the Queen's champion, endowed with unnatural abilities to serve her growing army. Demons, beasts, and horrors beyond imagination await, as Jack and Diane fight not just for survival but for the chance to reclaim their stolen lives. As the Queen's trials grow deadlier and the stakes higher, one question looms: Will one of them become the Queen's champion, or will they defy the odds and bring her reign to an end? The first installment of the Forced to Fight series. The Queen is waiting. Will Jack and Diane survive?
