The Hollowing
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.

Hollow Veins
Surviving the apocalypse was hard enough without figures from her horror striken past showing up out of the blue. But of course, nothing in life came that easily. Not even that, but now her old lying "friend" has offered her a simple choice. Go with a bunch of strangers to a city that may or may not exist, most likely get killed on the way there. Or slowly starve alongside her friend, Aaron. And it doesn't matter how much she doesn't like it. This choice could mean life or death. It may be her only chance of survival in this awful, grief filled world.Complete
To Die For
Wyle Dolon has no intention of dying. Surviving the apocalypse isn't easy, but he's pretty much got the situation under control, simply because he's not about to risk his life to save anyone else in his platoon. He certainly has no intention of doing something stupid, like fall in love. Riley Emerson is pretty much resigned to a quiet life, probably helping her much more popular, and prettier older sister. She knows her strengths, and that's talking her way through trades for rations, and trying to help sister navigate courtship. It's not as though she is going to lose her heart to one of the reckless soldier's much less one with a reputation for straying beyond society's fences. Fast paced, heartwarming, bloody good post-apocolyptic fun. Trigger/Content Warning: blood and gore through out, some profanity, some disturbing sequences involving violence. Rape is discussed. Bloody fights on page. Some peril. Dark humor. Nothing beyond typical teen adventures, be aware of your mental state, and seek support as needed.Complete
