The Alterlight series by Glynn James is a three-book fantasy that marks a departure from his usual post-apocalyptic science fiction. Where The Lost Go / The Low Ways (2021), The Calling of Wolves (2023), and In Chasing Spirits (2023) explore an alternate world with supernatural elements.

The series has a more atmospheric, mythic quality than James’s military-focused Arisen books or his survival-oriented Thrown Away series. The wolf and spirit imagery in the titles signals a fantasy world built on different rules than the ruined civilizations of his other fiction.
