A world ravaged by war; humanity on the brink.
A stranger comes from another time.
Is he the saviour mankind has been waiting for... or something far darker?
When an accident with an experimental Time Machine plunges David Tweed into another dimension, at first he thinks he got lucky. He's alive, and the world in which he finds himself seems remarkably familiar.
Soon, however, he begins to realise how strange this world really is, how tangible is the evil that crawls across the shattered landscape.
But strangest of all, everyone he meets seems to have been expecting him. How do they know who he is, and just what have they been waiting for him to do?
Alan Porter weaves a deceptively simple story of one man's courage in the face of overwhelming odds. Yet Firestorm is also a fiendishly complex puzzle, where time twists in on itself and nothing is ever quite what it seems.

In The End
Hundreds of years after the fall of advanced civilization, survivors struggle with everyday life. Tormented by loss, a young man abandons the fragile comfort of what little remains, drawn by a desperate hope and an enigmatic guide. His journey leads him to a hidden realm of ancient beings, who offer a harrowing rebirth - a communion with something primeval that reshapes flesh and spirit. But this agonizing awakening coincides with a horrifying truth: the desolate world outside is undergoing its own monstrous transformation. Predators, once familiar, now hunt with unnatural savagery, their eyes burning with a malevolent intelligence. Here, survival is not a promise, but a terrifying metamorphosis, a plunge into an escalating nightmare where the line between humanity and what lurks in the shadows blurs, and the cost of living might be a fate far worse than death.

Night Disease
REVISED EDITION COMING OUT MONTHLY/COMPLETED In a world overrun by zombies, A single bite heralds doom - except for Kaindra, who defies death itself, being undead already. ******** As humanity struggles to adapt to the new reality of zombies-infested streets and lurking supernatural creatures from ancient myths and legends, survival becomes an ever-evolving challenge. Survival is a constant battle not only against the undead but also against supernatural creatures and their zealous followers. The relentless onslaught of zombies and the mysterious reemergence of mythical beings push society to its limits. Civilization's last bastions fall one by one, teetering on the brink of collapse. As these ancient myths awaken, they reveal intentions that are far from clear- some may hold the key to salvation, while others could herald further doom. The question remains: Can humanity unravel the mysteries of these legendary beings in time to save themselves, or will they fall prey to the very legends they once dismissed? ___ Excerpt: Taking a deep breath, I lean closer to the mirror, my skin prickling. I thought it was a trick of the light, but as I stare at my reflection, my fragile lies crumble away. The reflection staring back at me feels unrecognizable. My once deep, dark brown eyes now glimmer with an otherworldly light, like twin moons suspended in a sea of silver. The faint glow within them swirls softly, catching the dim flicker of flame I summoned, like ripples across a moonlit lake. Their alien intensity sends a chill down my spine. The orbs seemed to hold a universe within, depths of endless mysteries and ancient wisdom beyond my grasp. ___ Warning: Mentions of suicide and self-harm Beautiful cover made by @scmimi.

Ashes Of Tomorrow
ASHES OF TOMORROW When humanity burned, knowledge became the only fire left. Two centuries after the world collapsed, humans no longer believe in science-and science no longer believes in humans. The Decay Virus has transformed the Earth into a living organism: cities grow like flesh, metal breathes, and the sky reflects the pulse of out-of-control biotechnology. Among the ruins, Ryn Solas, a scientist awakened from a frozen sleep two hundred years ago, awakens to find a world born of his own mistakes. He once created a virus designed to save humanity-and instead erased it from history. Now, he must confront two opposing forces: Kael Drayke, the stubborn leader of the Survivors who thrives on instinct and hatred of the past, and Eira, a Hybrid creature who is neither human nor monster-the only one who might understand the true meaning of evolution. The three are trapped between the ruins of science and faith, logic and instinct, past and future-as the world begins to speak with a voice that belongs to no one else: the voice of an ancient machine that believes destruction is a form of salvation. At the end of everything, they must answer the same question: Does humanity still deserve to survive... or is it time to be replaced by something more worthy?
What Lasts in Us
**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong.

But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.Complete
