Showing results for "everything" in Post-Apocalyptic

By the middle of the twenty-first century, war, famine, economic collapse, and climate catastrophe had toppled the world's governments. In the 2050s, the insurrections reached the nerve center of global capitalism—New York City. This book, a collection of interviews with the people who made the revolution, was published to mark the twentieth anniversary of the New York Commune, a radically new social order forged in the ashes of capitalist collapse.

They escaped the cities. They lived through the storm. But there are more dark clouds forming on the horizon for Wren and Robyn. The undead have made escape impossible. Ruthless gangs patrol the highways, and danger lurks in the shadows. A new friend and a new settlement and things are looking up, though all is not what it seems.

Since escaping the zombie-infested cities, there has been no respite for Robyn and Wren. Now, though, the sisters finally have a chance to start afresh. But the world has other plans. They thought they’d reached a safe community. What they’d found was a powder keg with a lit fuse. Their hardest lessons are only just being taught. With love comes sacrifice. With sacrifice comes pain. With pain comes sadness. With sadness comes anger.

Two sisters, one nightmare. The last thing they wanted to do was spend time with each other. Now, their very survival depends on it. Forced from their home and thrown into an apocalyptic horror neither could have imagined, they didn’t think things could get any worse. They were wrong. As they navigate the city to escape to safety, terror lurks for them on every corner. The reanimating virus has taken away everything they loved, but today, they’re going to start fighting back.

Together again, but for how long? A promise kept, another one made, and the ghost of guilt threatens madness. For Wren, her dream has come true. For Robyn, the fate of a friend will determine her future. Now, everything rests on one decision. Two sisters, a new nightmare. Gangs, armies, the undead hordes - they must face them all to find peace, but at what cost?

An overwhelming enemy force. A surprise attack. Now, a darkness has fallen over the land, the likes of which has never been seen before. Most have fled. Only a handful remain. For some, this is the longest night they have ever lived. For others, there will be no dawn. Can Safe Haven survive? Or is this the end of everything?

Nineteen years since the world ended and the fight for survival was constant. People had gathered in Western Oregon from all over the country, each with their own story of survival. Each fighting to make the world better, and perhaps regain some of what has been lost. Brent Tanner, first of the children born after the end of the world, was on patrol in what used to be known as Southern Oregon when someone tried to kill him for no reason. A pretty female type someone.

Charles is reaching the end of his rope. The things he has seen have nearly become too much. He never signed up to be a hero. It was never a burden he wanted. Only his burgeoning family has kept him going for this long, but now even Gaia needs his help. The system the Gods created for their game is on the brink of collapse. There have been too many people and events that they never accounted for since it began, each one causing cascading errors. The biggest two being Charles and his sister Charlotte.

You find the person, the friend, the sister, the warrior you know you can be.

First came the whispers. Then the screams. Then the world learned a terrifying truth: the human body can ignite from within. They called it SHC—Spontaneous Human Combustion. No warning. No logic. No mercy. One morning, people simply started burning. And it's consuming humanity, one spark at a time. Where every heartbeat could be your last, and the most dangerous thing to burn for... is hope.
