Kieran Kesuchian, frankly, didn't expect to die. Well, not as much die as in "disapear". He didn't expect to lose his best friend and family in one night. He didn't expect to discover a secret agency supposedly guarding Keidham underneath the City. And he definitely didn't expect to be left with strange people, with strange glowing marks and scars and told that he could never return home.

He isn't a warrior. He doesn't want to help protect the world. He doesn't want to help kill aliens that threaten humanity's new existence. He honestly doesn't even care that much. He just wants his family and his life back. His predictable, safe, orderly life.

But you can't always have what you wish for.

"It's human nature. It's instinct to survive, no matter the cost." The world has fallen into desolation. The apocalypse has already started and finished, leaving some of the surviving ones with strange powers and mysterious scars. The world has ended, according to some, and is now in a state of rebirth. Others say it hasn't ended yet and that it's only going to get worse. The remaining people have grouped together in packs and gangs, raiding the desolate cities and avoiding the ones called the Destroyers, who capture and torture the remaining survivors. No one is safe. One fifteen year old boy knows this better than anyone. He and his older sister lived together, sticking to the dark alleys of their abandoned city, and survived for years after the apocalypse, until the Destroyers came and took her away, reigning terror on the few who remained in the city. The boy, desperate to find someone to help him save his sister, leaves the city and finds one of the youngest cooperative packs in North America, called the Raiders, comprised of unwanted individuals with the strange powers left from the destruction of years past. Their leader, a destructive insomniac, promises to help him in return for the skills and usefulness this young boy seems to possess, but something disrupting sends waves of unease through the Raiders, something about a forgotten past and talk of a mutiny. "Maybe there's more to life than just surviving." ... Rated C for Caution. Though it's rated mature, there is no bad language or vivid descriptions of sexual contact. It does have very strong themes. Please read the two important notices in the intro. Read at your own risk. Thanks.

Ever thought surviving first period and facing her best friend's boyfriend - whom she recently kissed - was going to be the hardest part of her day, but it turns out there are worse things: like trying to survive the end of the world. And as it just so happens, she might be the one person who can save it. No pressure. As if being a teen weren't hard enough. Just when she thinks things couldn't get any more complicated, Ever meets a good-looking stranger who gets under her skin, and while he drives her crazy, he might be the key to unlocking her past and understanding how to save the future. Perhaps he's not a stranger after all. Perhaps he's keeping a secret, not only about their connection, but about the truth behind the strange apocalyptic events that are threatening the end of all mankind. Ever will have to decide if she wants to swipe left and pass on saving humanity, or step up to the plate and take on her role as mankind's savior. *This is book one in a series
