Apocalyptic Fiction

Growing stronger has brought its own challenges as Silas is more of a target than ever. Worse, the Earth and its allies become targets too. Decisions have been made and obligations accrued.

Silas must walk his own path and create a new way if he wants a future that diverges from the horrors he has been shown.

Entire neighborhoods in Nevada disappear without a trace. And in the French Alps, a champion cyclist vanishes mid-race, his GPS pinging him thousands of miles away—then gone.

With a second chance ahead of them and the moonshiner’s compound in the rearview mirror, Ben and his crew can resume their cross-country trek to Colorado. Or can they?

Making matters worse, the open road quickly proves more hostile than they remember.

Rose Winter has enough problems. With a marriage going down the tubes and a dreaded anniversary party on the horizon, the last thing she needs is the zombie apocalypse.

It’s more important than ever to remain vigilant.

Will they ever see home again? Colorado seems farther away than ever for Ben and his crew. Especially when a road block lures them deeper into the Appalachian Mountains.

Ben knows they must come together as a team if they are going to survive.

Those who remain uninfected rush the ports, hoping to escape the bloodthirsty beasts, desperate for some safe harbor.

Are there any decent people left? Having reached his kids in Maryland, Ben is faced with the challenge of crossing the country once more and getting everyone safely home to Colorado.

Remaining vigilant is no guarantee that they will avoid problems on the journey back.
