Eden Green is Fiona van Dahl's first published novel, released through Amazon Kindle and Audible under 'science fiction' and 'horror'.Eden is a rational, reliable person who tries to keep her life as simple and organized as possible. When her best friend Ron disappears for a while, then reappears with a creepy new boyfriend named Tedrin, Eden thinks it's just more of the usual drama... until she learns that Ron has been infected with an alien needle symbiote that keeps her alive no matter what. Things get worse from there, as needle-monsters begin to infest their city.Most of the book covers Eden's semi-scientific experiments on the symbiote, sometimes involving her own body. But occasionally, to ensure her own survival, she has to take a shotgun to a needle monster or ten.The author has since started a free online serial, City on the Edge of Nowhere, recapping the events of Eden Green from the perspective of a reporter affected by events.The sequel, New Night, takes place nine months after the events of Eden Green. | |

The Sociopath | |
| Eden Green / int_19851b86 | comment |
The Sociopath: Tedrin (and called such by Eden several times). He uses, lies to, and manipulates both girls, is a thrill-seeker, thinks of himself as the hero savior of Gothic, and only ever expresses strong emotions (besides rage and pain) when Kazuma shifts to the forefront. | |

Abandoned Area: Since the city of Gothic is going through a decade-long recession, there are many abandoned warehouses and other areas in which the needle monsters nest. When Eden crosses over to the other side of the portals, she finds an entire Ghost Planet. | |

Talking Down the Suicidal: When Eden is infected, she immediately tries to kill herself using her own shotgun, and only stops when Veronica and Tedrin talk her out of it. Later, Tedrin asks Eden to use Mjolnir to permanently destroy him; suddenly uncomfortable with the idea, she demands that he stay alive until they've fixed all of his mistakes. | |

Mage in Manhattan | |
| Eden Green / int_aedad804 | comment |
Mage in Manhattan: A lot of Eden's initial planning involves keeping the monsters and infection a secret. The next morning, needle monsters destroy part of the city center and make international news. Also the theme of the related web serial, City on the Edge of Nowhere. | |

The Worm That Walks | |
| Eden Green / int_b4754f84 | comment |
The Worm That Walks: Tedrin (and any other human made completely of needles). Later, when 'Kazuma' re-emerges, it's implied that 'Tedrin' is the survival-obsessed personality of the needles. | |
