** NEW COVER ** 

Six months ago Lowry left college after being diagnosed with cancer. Prognosis: not good.

Today, Lowry faces an unforgiving world in which infection has brought human civilization to its knees. Possibly the last non-infected person in the state, he has a decision: fight his way out of the state and seek out whatever's left of society, or find a peaceful place to let his cancer kill him before the infected do. It's a decision complicated by the arrival of Trevor Shannon, a crashed bush pilot with the mind and drive to return to his hometown in Alaska, and an inability to leave Lowry to his own devices.

While Lowry's illness hinders their travels it doesn't stop the spark that kindles between them, and might just be what saves them both in the end.

While on the job one morning, he confronts horrors he'd never think was possible. His aspirations of future careers and school come to a screeching halt as he's stuck finding his way back to his home, and his family. Isaiah's journey is filled with heartbreak and sadness as he experiences so much more than one can handle. Will he be able to navigate his way home, or will he succumb to the new world he has found himself in? *** The government covered it up as just another case of the bird flu, mad cow disease, you name it. No one suspected foul play, until cases skyrocketed just hours after the government announced a new strain of the bird flu. Rumors spread of people killing each other in incredibly gruesome ways, but society being as dumb as we are, dismissed it all. Dismissed it all until time ran out to prepare. I was one who definitely did not prepare. My name is Isaiah Benning, and I am a dumbass.

The dead have never been so alive. After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.
