In the midst of a warring America resides a community founded on uniformity. 

From the day they were created, every inhabitant of the community was promised a life of eternal happiness; all desires of theirs would be fulfilled without question. 

Well, except one. 

Sixteen year-old Perri Bennett desperately craves an escape from the community. She would dig her way out of there if she could. If, for all except one day out of the month, her mind didn't take over and tell her that she loved it there. 

If, Perri wasn't one of the Cleansed. 

When a catastrophic situation threatens the uniformity of the community, Perri must make the ultimate sacrifice and abandon all she knows in exchange for the opportunity to explore what life was like outside the walls of her home over 20 years before the community, or Perri, ever existed.

Exile: The Book of Ever by JamesCormier
30 parts Complete
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.

Stranded in the middle of nowhere, Grace is stuck with a group of teens, all trying to survive in the wild. Noa is doing his best to keep things together, but it's getting harder. Tensions are high, supplies are low, Aura's having issues continuing while pregnant, and no one knows what's going on or how to get out.
