When the black rain began to fall, it was a worldwide phenomenon that mystified everyone. There was little time to ponder the cause. Most animals died at the onset. While some humans were unaffected, others experienced a half-death of sorts, morphing into blood and flesh-crazed creatures with a desire to hunt the living. Climbing Fox Wattana of the Henomawi Nation claims responsibility for the black rain; he says it will will ensure the ultimate extinction of the United States government as revenge for robbing his people of their land. Cole "CB" Baxter isn't taking this lying down.

In order to release a reading of the Declaration of Independence in audiobook format, the original founding document written by Thomas Jefferson in 1776 and adopted by the second Continental Congress, it was necessary to also create a short book to go along with it. We felt it was worth the effort—early listeners of our audiobook presentation have been very favorable, so we felt it was a worthy venture.

Three terrifying viruses threatened the world. Race wars devolved into bloody civil wars. Just when man was about to exterminate himself, the asteroid Wormwood appeared and nearly finished the job. Rather than suffer a slow death, mankind pooled their resources and fought back to save the planet, and themselves. Once the dust settled, a new plague appeared. One that brought back old tensions and pitted brother against brother as people began to change. Old tensions arose as those afflicted were targeted by the fearful.

At a time when mankind should have been reaching for the future, life devolved into a nearly apocalyptic present, pitting neighbor against neighbor and nation against nation as three different viruses ravaged the population. Civil wars reduced the world population even more. Then came the asteroid Wormwood, and everything changed. Man did what nobody expected...they pulled together and worked to save the planet and themselves. Years after the space rock did its damage, people began to change. Old tensions were brought back as those afflicted were targeted by the fearful.

The 21st century brought more plagues to mankind than any other time in history. Some were manufactured by man, others were acts of God. Even Mother Nature herself turned against the infestation known as man. Nearly 30 percent of the population was killed by new virus strains. Racial tensions flared and evolved into two civil wars.

The tribe had a far distance to travel and the undead weren't their only enemies. The hyena hunted them relentlessly, unscrupulous men wanted what they had, and even Mother Nature seemed to be against them. Even if they made it, could they put away their weapons, leave their animals behind and go back to school? Could they go back to being children or had they been too long in the wild?

The bears were hungry and the panther was pacing her cage. It was supposed to be a fun field trip to the zoo. Instead, it turned into a nightmare of blood. The zombie virus spread like wildfire. By noon, they were all alone. Abandoned. Safe inside the fences, a group of school kids are the only survivors. Like the animals, they’ve spent their whole lives being cared for and fed, pampered and loved. Now they have to learn how to survive, how to hunt, and how to kill.

The nightmare that began in My Short Life As A Zombie reaches new heights of mind-blowing apocalyptic mayhem, as shape-shifters confront the undead.

Now she has to find a way across the infected city, through millions of the walking dead, to rescue her young brother, trapped in the attic of their murdered parents’ home. It seems impossible, insane...

People - lots of them - are going missing on the island nation of Aruba. Jack Hunger has a funny feeling it’s not by natural causes. Fearing the worst, he and Wayne Olsen must hop a flight from south Florida to the Caribbean to find out the truth. Allyson Hayes and Chad Steiner were set loose on the promise they had become human, again; that they no longer required or desired human flesh to live.

Now safely gathered in Lebanon, Kansas, our survivors work with Micky Rode and the Nacogdoche Indian Tribe to train refugees of the apocalypse to become true warriors. To find Climbing Fox Wattana, they must cross a countryside teeming with flesh-craving skinwalkers. The skinwalkers have drawn together to form massive hordes - some wandering on their own; others amassed by Qaletaqa, an ancient Chief of the Hintoka Tribe who possesses near immortality. But he also hides a deeper secret of which few living humans are aware.

It should have been just another Monday. Another humdrum day in a long string of boring days spent at the office, drooling over the girl of his dreams. Bobby’s regular routine of getting ready for work and the lackluster life spent in a cubicle are hilariously detailed as Bobby finds himself bouncing between the day’s activities and strange semi-lucid moments of sounds and images that he can’t quite make sense of.
