Dystopian World

What happens when you realize that you’re at the mercy of powers greater than yourself? What happens when these powers flex their muscles and, overnight, turn the entire world on its head? What happens when, in a twist of fate, these same powers offer you a lifeline; an invitation into their exclusive club? Do you accept? Join Alex Watson as he enters the darkness of an unseen world, where the "dominant few" do as they please to the "inferior many" that live beneath them. For the insiders, there is unimaginable freedom, wealth, and power.

Charlie Owens spent his life protecting others, but after he left the service he focused on protecting his family. An EMP has wreaked havoc on the country, and the person responsible plans more destruction. Charlie vowed never to be pulled back into another person’s conflict. But if he wants to keep his family alive, Charlie will have no choice but to fight.

When saving a life in 1946 Alabama, Amish giant Konrad took one in return and must run before the electric chair claims him. In New York, Nazi propaganda fools him into jumping on a ship to Berlin, the capital of the Third Reich. In 1965, at Gothengau, an SS-run colony in Ukraine, a terrorist rocket attack on Berlin compels soldier-farmer Konrad to focus on his duty: commanding an SS convict battalion. He must flex his muscle for the armed forces or the Holocaust's perpetrators--his superiors, colleagues, and neighbors in Ukraine.

What would you risk to save your family? Former United States Department of Defense Contractor Charlie Owens resigned from his position with the government to live a life off-grid. After building a cabin on a small island in the Pacific Northwest, the detonation of an EMP sets into motion a series of events that will test Charlie and his family in ways he never imagined.

Alex was in bad shape. Just this side of dead, lying in a dumpster, but he couldn’t give up. Crawling out of the garbage, the first thing he noticed, beyond the pain, was that Vee was gone. He had only one option - to keep going. Out to the street he walked. All around there was only the otherworldly destruction of burned-out cars, broken windows, and empty streets. Houston had fallen further into chaos, brimming with violence and a population at each other’s throats.

As society crumbles, the world divides between good and evil. The fallout from the EMP and cyber-attack that crippled Texas has ravaged the rest of the country. Alex and Vee must stay on the move, with the Accountant’s men being hot on their heels. And, on a lonely road back to Houston, Wendy survives through grit, determination, and a little luck - but she’s still not home free. Who can she trust, when everyone is out to save themselves? Houston is like a war zone. She’s going to need some help.

Between them and the Accountant...lies a gauntlet of roaming gangs. How will they make it to Houston? For Alex, he only has one move: Get the money from the Accountant and hope it’s enough to make things right with Vargas. There’s just one problem: The gangster’s men aren’t the only ones trying to kill him, Vee, and Ranger. Texas has become a wasteland where everyone is willing to kill to survive. Can Alex survive long enough to get to Wendy?

Was this how the apocalypse ended for Alex? He never should have been in this mess, but Trey crossed the wrong man. Now Mr. Jackson, the leader of the thugs sent to get blood from a stone, had plans to drag him into the forest and put a bullet in his head. They couldn’t be reasoned with, so when there’s nothing to lose, one might as well go for a long shot. He attacked and caught Mr. Jackson’s men by surprise. If he was going to die, it would be this way, and not on his knees. Exhausted, bloodied, and very much alive, he bolted. Into the dense forest with one goal on his mind.

Nobody was sure who took down the power grid in Texas, but from the moment it happened, Alex knew it was his chance to escape. Four months into a four-year sentence for armed robbery, Alex had barely survived Huntsville Prison. Worried about Wendy and desperate to make things right with Vargas, the mobster his old partner, Trey, stole from, he needed to breakout.

When everything crumbles down, it's do or die. Fighting from within enemy territory means you have the power to burn everything to the ground. It's the final fight.

Demands, each one worse than the last, force him to make hard choices that could have grave consequences. This time, it's do or die. But who can he trust? He's torn between two worlds, two lives. And which side most deserves his loyalty?

With Indiana in their sights...they have no choice but to stop. Will the storm or their pursuers be the end of Cory and Anna? Why hadn’t he thought about it before? Winchester, Illinois was where his old friend, Abe lived. He wasn’t just a pal, Abe had a bunker. Maybe they could hide and ride out the weather. Perhaps they could even escape the two men trying to kill them. What they didn’t know...was someone guessed their next move. Was the bunker out of reach?

Cory’s family was his first concern. He had to get home, but Indiana was more than 2,000 miles away, and he had only one question: What dangers lie ahead? The warmth of the sun faded. When the temperature dropped, panic set swept the world. Fears of doom terrified the masses. Gangs roamed the streets. The girl he had helped had proved to be a valuable travel companion. Cory has no idea what Anna isn’t telling him.

Cory’s life was hard. A horrific childhood, bad marriage, and a stint in prison set him on the path. His time in organized crime was miserable, but he had no choice. He did pick up a few skills along the way, though, and just in time for the end-of-the-world.

Not long from now, in a recognisable yet changed London, Signy and Matthew lead a dull, difficult life. They've only really stayed together for the sake of their six year old son, Jed. But they're surviving, just about. Until the day the technology that runs their world stops working. Unable to use their phones, pay for anything, even open the smart door to their flat, Matthew assumes that this is just a momentary glitch in the computers that now run the world.

One night, everyone on Earth has the same dream—a dream of being guided to a watery death by a loved one on November 1. When they wake up, most people agree: after Halloween, the world will end.

Tasha Deavers has dedicated her life to helping people prepare for the worst disasters. But when an EMP strike shuts down the country’s power grid, she’ll face her deadliest crisis on an unimaginable scale. With New York City in chaos, Tasha must brave the road to reach her grandfather’s homestead in Kentucky before the EMP claims her life.

During the coldest winter on record, an EMP sends America back into the Stone Age. It’s been a week without power. No phones. No computers. Nothing. As the crisis unfolds, one family seeks sanctuary from the cold on the city's outskirts.

An unputdownable EMP box set with a brilliant twist. Lights Out: The nation's power grid has failed. Hundreds of millions are left without basic utilities, and the enemy responsible for the EMP's detonation now wreaks havoc throughout the countryside. After an EMP crisis shakes the foundation of North America, Greenhill, an insignificant town, becomes the safe haven for a family. Aftermath: In a flash, an EMP blast disables North America's entire east coast. Separated from her husband and daughter, 39-year-old psychologist Naomi Baxter finds herself trapped.

A blinding flash … then darkness. Bria Ford and her three closest friends are stranded on a country highway in the middle of a November night. No phones. No car. No lights. Helpless and hundreds of miles from home, they put their lives in the hands of handsome Jonah Page and his flinty sister, East, strangers who somehow know Bria better than she knows herself. As the group bonds to adapt to a new, yet old, way of life, the secrets of Bria’s past provide them with the means to survive the extremes of Mother Nature, and the even more frightening extremes of human nature. Quietly suspenseful, The Light explores how the stories we tell ourselves shape the person we present to the world, and what happens to that person when the world falls away.
