The Sanctum is an antigovernment coalition camp in an area of the country known as "The No-Go Zone", lead by an arriviste leader. 

This tight-knit community is arduous to find and almost impossible to escape from. Almost.

But a revolution is silently unfolding in what remains of the country after a catastrophic war, at the hands of a teenager and her 8 year old sister.

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.

The Safe Zone is a gripping dystopian novel set in a world devastated by a viral pandemic that has transformed everyday life into a perilous journey of survival and isolation. The story follows Lena and Ethan, two individuals navigating the desolate cityscape where once-thriving streets now echo with emptiness and fear. Confined to her apartment, Lena struggles with the monotony and isolation that have become the new norm. She finds herself reaching out through a virtual app called "Connect," a government-backed platform designed to help people cope with the solitude of lockdown. Through this digital medium, she meets Ethan, an artist who has also been cut off from his world of inspiration and community. As Lena and Ethan connect over shared experiences and mutual support, they begin to form a bond that transcends the barriers of their physical separation. Their bond is a beacon of hope in a desolate world, as they explore themes of resilience, hope, and the human need for connection, even in the face of overwhelming uncertainty. But as their relationship grows, so do the challenges of navigating a world that the virus has irreversibly changed. As they uncover more profound layers of societal control within the safe zone and the true extent of the government's reach, Lena and Ethan must decide what sacrifices they are willing to make for freedom, both their own and that of others still trapped in the remnants of their fractured society. This exploration of societal control adds a layer of intrigue and complexity to their journey. The Safe Zone is a powerful exploration of connection, defiance, and the strength of the human spirit in a world where nothing can be taken for granted.
