While this full-length novel is Book II of The Erelong Trilogy, it can also be enjoyed as a standalone. _________ Amazon Reviewers Say: This book has some serious suspense... Great apocalyptic read!! Very descriptive text and suspenseful. So many elements of truth that it is terrifying to think of the possibility. The characters are very endearing. I liked them from the get go and they really got me invested in the story. _________ May Day is Book 2 in The Erelong Trilogy, but it can be enjoyed as a standalone.

There were once two battlecruisers, on opposite sides. HMS Queen Mary with the British, and SMS Derfflinger with the Germans. One day, it was discovered that the two battlecruisers actually had feelings for each other. How will they cope to all events and how will their respective navies react to their relationship? Their story began in WW1. After it's end, it would truly begin in 1992 when they were both launched. They met each over in late 2019 and started hanging out in early 2020. They both knew the risk of their relationship, as their respective sides, Britain and Germany, were rivals. It is the year 2020. Amidst WW3. In a reality where it doesn't have any impact. On October 14th of that year the two realities will reunite. Queen Mary and Derfflinger's relationship would not stay a secret for long, as their respective navies will find out about it. However their reactions would be something both Queen Mary and Derfflinger never expected. I seem to not own characters, as the characters involved were real things. I don't own the two images used either.
