Book excerpt: Fresh off the highly acclaimed The Last War Series, comes a gripping new tale of the apocalypse from bestselling author, Ryan Schow. The Age of Embers is perfect for fans of Matthew Mather, Bobby Akart, Jack Hunt, Nicholas Sansbury Smith, Mike Kraus and Harley Tate. The end is almost here, are you ready? A high-tech nightmare. A crippling attack on America and her infrastructure. Are humans in their final days? When a sudden, unexplained spasm of violence rocks the country from coast to coast, when our military is hijacked and the President can't be found, the survivors will be left to wonder if this is the start of a new world war, or if this is the last chapter of humanity itself. Undercover DEA agent, Fire Dimas, is drowning in problems: a unrelenting job, a difficult marriage and a teenage daughter with suitors of the worst kind. Then there's the cartel he double-crossed and the "incident" at the high school. To say he's in way over his head is the understatement of the century. Rest assured though, for Fire and his family, it's about to get much, much worse. The assault has already begun... Eliana Gutierrez and her niece, Carolina, are stolen by the Guatemalan cartel and swallowed into the dark world of human trafficking until a brutal crime separates them. Eliana must now use the deadly trafficking lines to trek up through Mexico and into America in search of the only person she ever loved. Along the way, she'll come face-to-face with a handsome, rancorous hitman who will either be her salvation or her bitter end. Under the cover of a post-apocalyptic nightmare, Eliana will risk life and limb for the child, but will it be enough? The Age of Embers is a post-apocalyptic survival series written inside the universe of the best-selling The Last War series. This edge-of-your-seat thriller chronicles the harrowing journey of ordinary people trapped in an encroaching dark age. Get ready for characters you'll want to know in real life, big post-apocalyptic action and a no-holds-barred action/adventure series that just might hit a little too close to home. NOTE: The Age of Embers and subsequent books can be read as a stand alone series or in addition to The Last War series. Both stories are written in the same universe on the same timeline and some characters will overlap. With tens of millions of pages read, more than seventy-thousand books sold, and hundreds of five star reviews, The Complete Last War Series is the perfect compliment to The Age of Embers. WHAT FANS OF THE LAST WAR ARE SAYING... "Epic apocalyptic read with compelling characters! Ryan knows how to write action and suspense. But where he truly shines is the flawed, complex, broken but resolute heroes and heroines he creates. These characters are embroiled in deep, high-stakes problems before the apocalypse even starts. How their journeys entwine with the oncoming, world-ending disaster makes for great fiction." - Kyla Stone - Bestselling Author The Last Santuary Omnibus ★★★★★ "One of the best of this genre! THIS is writing at its finest. One of the best in this genre. I am officially a fan of this writer." - Rodolfo, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "Starts fast and doesn't let up to the last sentence! This grittier, meaner series has upped the ante! Awesome story! Can't recommend it enough! " - Robert V, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★

Download or read book The Blond Texts the Age of Embers written by Nadia Tuéni and published by Upset Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Throughout her writing career, Tueni remained fiercely independent and unattached to fashionable schools of thought. Her fondness for her native land is intertwined with her need to reflect upon the realities and conditions that surrounded her. The operations at work in her poetry--from the varied linguistic play to the jarring juxtapositions, from the ambiguity of certain passages to the playful manipulations of syntax--are intensely original and delightfully strange. Scenes from her own childhood accompany imagery drawn from Christian mythology and rituals, while tales of lovers scorned are juxtaposed with those of gods abandoned. Revelatory descriptions of springs, mountains and street-scenes accompany metaphysical contemplations, themselves masked by layers of striking imagery. Forceful and meditative, two books that present internal and emotional landscapes as well as a sensual if fragmented portrait of her urban and natural surroundings." --Amir Parsa

"This is the best so far. And why is that? Well because it is a reliable alternative reality. The focus is not just survival but the description of human behavior, thoughts and ethical conundrums. Character development is very strong and the book addresses all the male/female issues being struggled with today. Ryan Schow is one of the first writers I have read that discusses suicide as an escape from an untenable situation. What would you rather be, a survivor or good person killed?" - Christopher La Londe, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "Incredible. Loved it! This book pulled me in from the beginning and kept me absolutely hooked to the very end. I could not put it down!! I felt like I was living through mayhem with this family, navigating seemingly impossible odds, feeling the despair of their situation at times and glimmers of hope along the way. As is the case in his other books, I love the way this author continually finds ways to weave humor into even the most dire of situations. I truly enjoyed the characters and their unforgettable journey through a city I know well, but came to envision in a whole new light. This really is a must read!" Coach, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ "Wow, what a story! The author managed to weave a tale of action, depth of personality and realism around an apocalyptic event that grabs you by the throat and does not let go to the very last page. I was delighted to hear that it is the first of a series! Don't miss jumping aboard and enjoying the thrill..." - Dusty, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ READING ORDER OF THE COMPLETE LAST WAR SERIES: The Last War The Zero Hour The Ophidian Horde The Infernal Regions The Killing Fields The Barbarous Road The Terminal Run Categories: Post Apocalyptic Survival Fiction, EMP, Action, Adventure, Science Fiction, Dystopian, Women's Adventure, Men's Adventure, Teen and Young Adult Science Fiction
