Read introduction for information.
I'm telling you this is the book where I actually lock in for everything

The world fell in silence before it screamed. Cities that once burned with light and laughter became graves overnight, swallowed by the gnashing hunger of the dead. The apocalypse did not come with warning sirens or heroes rising in time, it arrived with teeth, with the stench of decay, with the unbearable truth that nothing could ever return to what it was.

Amidst the ruins walks a boy who has lost everything. His mother's blood still clings to his memory, her final breath spent in a desperate act of love as she pushed him from the maw of death. That grief festers inside him like a wound that will never heal. But grief is the only compass left in this world, the only fire hot enough to keep moving forward when survival demands cruelty.

He is not alone for long. From the wreckage of collapsing streets and fractured lives, seven boys emerge, fractured souls bound together not by friendship, nor fate, but the sheer, brutal necessity of living another day. Trust does not come easy when everyone has lost someone, when the living are just as dangerous as the dead. Yet in the chaos, fragile bonds begin to form, arguments sparked over dwindling supplies, silences carved from fear, and fleeting moments of warmth that feel almost alien in a world drowning in cold.

Every night is a gamble. Every morning is a borrowed mercy. The dead are not the only threat. Hunger, betrayal, and the ghosts of their past lives stalk them in equal measure. But beneath the ashes of a world undone, there is something stubborn, a defiance that refuses to die. Perhaps survival is more than blood and instinct. Perhaps, in the most broken of places, there is still room for something else to take root.
