Publisher's summary
A shattered nation. A woman fueled by a relentless drive for unity. A daring journey to salvage the future from anarchy.
The remnants of civilization hang on the edge of collapse. Lena, a former teacher and current leader of a small community, spearheads a risky quest to establish alliances and prevent the gradual slide into chaos. Trust is a scarce commodity in the post-plague world. Every decision Lena makes bears the burden of shaping the future.
She embarks on a perilous journey from the lush farmlands of her home to the treacherous west coast, driven by the urgent quest for allies and the looming specter of imminent danger. She confronts ruthless gangs guarding their turf and isolated, desperate communities trapped within their fortress-like walls. Each step she takes is haunted by the relentless dread the world may never find solace under her guidance and anarchy may be the sole destiny awaiting them all.
The Foundry emerges as a gripping, post-apocalyptic odyssey that challenges the core of our humanity in a world where survival tests alliances, and the cost of failure is the annihilation of civilization.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,379
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.
