Riven Thane has risen from survivor to sovereign, carving out his very own necropolis in a world shaped by apocalypse and bloodshed. Ruling over the undead, he maintains tight control of his territory. But power never exists in a vacuum. As his influence spreads, so do the malignant forces determined to test it.

The demon invaders would reach Earth in a few short years, so why did it seem like humans were determined to destroy themselves before the enemy arrived? World War III was going to happen. It was only a matter of when. Nathanial Kane had enough to worry about, but the death of a billion people wasn't something he could ignore. His allies were growing in number. Involving them would endanger them before they'd fully developed. The world would need their talents when the demons arrived. What can one man do? Was it possible for him to advance far enough and fast enough to make a difference?

The EMP hit at 6:47 AM on a Tuesday. By Wednesday, the first fight broke out at the gas station. By Thursday, the grocery store was picked clean. By Friday, Jenna realized no one was coming to save them.

She was watching her grandson laugh at a baby gorilla when the call came. “You have minutes. Not hours. Minutes.” Lindy didn't panic. She'd spent forty years preparing for this exact moment. But she'd never imagined it would come while she was holding a hot chocolate at a zoo with the two people she loved most in the world. When the EMP hits, there is no second chance. No rescue. No government coming to help. Just a grandmother, two kids, and eighty miles of dying America.

Society collapsed. But the true nightmare is only beginning…Bear and Laurel are still reeling from the attack on their small community. Their clinic has been reduced to ashes, and what little remains of their medical supplies won’t last long. They need time to recover—but fate has other plans.

He had a gun against his temple when the dog walked out of the woods. That was six weeks into the collapse. Tonight Rob is still breathing, still walking, still climbing toward a homestead in the Colorado Rockies, because Captain won’t let him stop.

On the Aran Islands, Samantha Prendergast has the boat, the skill and the nerve to slip through the blockade and escape Ireland's doom—but her partner refuses to abandon others. After witnessing the savage fall of Galway City, Samantha knows what the spreading sound of weeping means.

I thought volunteering to be put into cryostasis for three days would be a great way to make some extra cash. Apparently, the rest of the world thought it would be a great time for an all-out nuclear war. Destruction was unleashed on such an incredible scale they say the very laws of physics changed. Now, massive mutants roam the city, looking for something—or someone—to eat. Violent gangs fight for control of the city's remains.

So here goes Frame, again, on his own. Walking down the only road he’s ever known. Not for the first time. Not for the first time there was a fork in the road. I’d promised my girl I’d kill them. Kill them all. Every last one of them. I took a really good stab at it. I did things that...
