Publisher's summary
A stand-alone novel, 1st in the Extinction series.
Liam Collins was just an engineering geek, not the stuff of heroes.
After centuries of war, nations have fallen and civilization is on the verge of collapse. Within the state of Colorado, only two walled city-states remain. To the south, Pike City is at war with a loose confederation of tribes ensconced within the Rocky Mountains, while in the north, Flatiron City strives to remain neutral by selling weapons to both sides.
In Flatiron City, Liam develops the technology that is bartered to keep the peace. But his simple life and the delicate balance his city maintains abruptly falters when astronomers foresee an impending solar flare that will end all life on Earth.
Liam is forced to work on an ambitious project to allow an elite few to escape to the stars. But should only the worst of us survive, or is there another option? As he executes his plans, he wonders, is losing our humanity in the effort to save our species too high of a cost to pay?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,638
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.

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.

It's been three long years since Deadbreak. That's what everyone's calling it - the day the dead rose. Every day since then, Jeremiah Reid has had one goal: to make his way back to his daughter. With his four-legged companion, Joe, Jeremiah has to travel a lawless wasteland teeming with zombies, bandits, and worse, like people who put anchovies on pizza (you know who you are). It's a new world out there, and no one is safe. People are weary, cities are in ruin, supplies are scarce, and brains are on the menu.

Sedulity (noun) Constant in purpose and intent, assiduous, steadfast, tireless, indefatigable. From the author of "Voyage of the Dead" and the "Sovereign Spirit Saga" comes a whole new type of apocalypse. Inspired by "Lucifer's Hammer" and other classic science fiction novels, David Forsyth brings the fear, suspense and thrilling action of "end of the world as we know it" fiction into focus aboard a cruise ship en route to Australia when an asteroid strikes the Central Pacific Ocean. Whatever image that description evokes is nothing compared to the epic forces of nature, human drama, and ...

The Wolfe County MAG spent years preparing for an “End Of Civilization As We Know It” event. They had prepared a BOL and carefully stocked it with tools, equipment, weapons, ammunition, food and medical supplies, along with everything else they thought necessary. Their people were knowledgeable and skilled. They hoped to ride out any disaster in a secure retreat. What they didn’t plan for was the world throwing them a curveball.

Having my dad and Uncle Scott back at Sanctuary seems like a dream come true. Unfortunately, I still have to deal with my sister Emery’s delusional antics. If that wasn't bad enough, a blast from one of my men’s past intrudes on our haven, bringing their toxic energy with them. A trip beyond the wall makes us face the direness of the world beyond our haven, and we find ourselves put in a situation where we need to decide to either ignore or step up. It seems like life continues to want to trip us up, hoping we stumble. But I have news for life: if we fall, we’re getting right back up ...
