"The Inheritance (Breach Wars)" by Ilona Andrews
https://www.amazon.com/Inheritance-Breach-Wars-Ilona-Andrews/dp/1641973404/
Book number one of a two book paranormal fantasy series. I read the
well printed and well bound POD (print on demand) trade paperback
published by the Nancy Yost Literary Agency in 2025. I am reading it
again already, very unusual for me. I am eagerly awaiting the release
of book number two in the series. By the reception on Amazon, many
other people are impatiently waiting also.
Ten years ago, the first twelve gates, the breaches, opened on Earth.
After a couple of months, all of the gates erupted with monsters who
killed thousands of humans. After the army destroyed all of the killer monsters at great cost, many people were discovered to have paranormal talents. Talents for mining in the breaches, talents for shielding, and talents for fighting.
Adaline Moore, Ada, was a worker bee who suddenly became a Talent after
the breaches started opening. A talent for finding ore in the breaches.
 She has been into hundreds of gates but the latest gate is different.

Amazon rating:Â 4.9 out of 5 stars (4,546 reviews)

I earlier sent a response, but it did not show up for me
looking at this newsgroup. I'll try again.
My wife read, and enjoyed that book.
As you call it, it is "paranormal fantasy series",
so I am not very interested.
In that line of books, I did read a book my 13 year old
granddaughter read and suggested, "Gone". Someday I ought
to post about it. Seriously, a lot going on in it!
I read "Gone (Gone, 1)" by Michael Grant
https://www.amazon.com/Gone-Michael-Grant/dp/0061448788
quite a few years ago. It was ok. Here is my review from March 23, 2022:
""Gone (Gone, 1)" by Michael Grant >https://www.amazon.com/Gone-Michael-Grant/dp/0061448788/
"Book number one of a young adult dark fantasy series. I read the well >printed and well bound trade paperback published by Katherine Tegen
Books (Harper Collins) in 2008, revised in 2014. I have yet to decide
if I will read more books in the series as dark fantasy is not my bag. >Warning: there is much death and disappearance in the novel. I have a
feeling that the series gets darker as the next book is titled "Hunger". >https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gone_(novel_series)"
""Lord Of The Flies" meets "The Dome" meets "X-Men". Everyone fifteen
and over suddenly disappears one day in a small California seaside
community. The several hundred kids left behind, zero to fourteen, have
to fend for themselves. After a month, most of the non-frozen and
non-canned food is gone. And then there is the special abilities being >exhibited by some of the kids: telekinesis, healing, etc. Plus the
flying rattlesnakes and talking coyotes."
