Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The post-apocalyptic saga takes you headlong into the fury that only Mother Nature can dish out—and that only those who have prepared for can survive. Massive electrical storms roll across the upper peninsula of Michigan as a result of the supervolcano eruption. Destructive lightning sets the city on fire, illuminating the night with blood-red skies. Allexa Smeth and her town of Moose Creek are finding it more and more difficult to survive the latest unleashing of natural—and manmade—disasters. The land is becoming more uninhabitable, and those who choose to stay might end up digging their own graves. “Learning from survival fiction is one of my passions although I do recognize and accept that many of the scenarios are quite extreme. Still, as a prepper that is continually challenged by the pursuit of knowledge, I keep reading and keep playing the ‘what if’ game in my own mind. One of the best series of books for doing so is Deborah D. Moore’s The Journal series.” —Backdoor Survival

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s nature versus humans with a country torn in half as the post-apocalyptic series continues. “Fast-paced and intense! I couldn’t put it down.” —Kerry Alan Denney, author of A Mighty Rolling Thunder The world was shaking apart and the North American continent was at the heart of it. An earthquake ripped the country in half at the New Madrid fault line. Shipping ceased and sent the country into a tailspin, with small towns like Michigan’s Moose Creek suffering the most. Recovery came slow as the country pulled itself together, until another more terrifying quake hit, awakening the sleeping caldera beneath Yellowstone. The ash that circled the world disrupted weather patterns everywhere, blotting out the sun and stirring up massive storms. Allexa Smeth and Colonel James Andrews set out to find the rift that broke the Upper Peninsula in half, turning two Great Lakes into one and causing massive floods. Finding the colonel’s men was a priority, but Allexa and the colonel didn’t know it would mean getting into more than they bargained for—and possibly more than they could handle. “Learning from survival fiction is one of my passions although I do recognize and accept that many of the scenarios are quite extreme. Still, as a prepper that is continually challenged by the pursuit of knowledge, I keep reading and keep playing the ‘what if’ game in my own mind.

A trip back to where it all began reveals the terrifying truth--everything Tessa claimed about the demons was true. Lost in grief and alcohol, Ben casts his intuition aside and enters Savannah's most haunted house seeking answers. Unbeknownst to Ben, there is still one demon left--and she specializes in vengeance. He is face-to-face with evil incarnate. He doesn't think he believes in demons. But he can't deny the voice inside his head and the dreams of a serpent-haired woman promising him unfathomable power. To resist would mean losing his soul and forsaking the lives of everyone he loves. To submit would mean avenging Tessa for the life stolen from her in exchange for his own. Now Ben must make a choice--deny a truth, threatening to tear his mind apart--or reunite the five flames, and watch the world burn."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book Remainders of the American Century written by Brent Ryan Bellamy and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the post-apocalyptic novel in American literature from the 1940s to the present as reflections of a growing anxiety about the decline of US hegemony. Post-apocalyptic novels imagine human responses to the aftermath of catastrophe. The shape of the future they imagine is defined by "the remainder," when what is left behind expresses itself in storytelling tropes. Since 1945 the portentous fate of the United States has shifted from the irradiated future of nuclear holocaust to the saltwater wash of global warming. Theorist Brent Ryan Bellamy illuminates the political unconscious of post-apocalyptic writing, drawing on a range of disciplinary fields, including science fiction studies, American studies, energy humanities research, and critical race theory. From George R. Stewart's Earth Abides to N.K. Jemisin's The Fifth Season, Remainders of the American Century describes the tension between a reactionary impulse and the progressive impetus for a new world. "Brent Ryan Bellamy weaves a rich and diverse tapestry of fictions, all of which navigate the changing valences of apocalypse, survival, and remainders during the rise and fall of the post-Second World War 'American Century.' Given the global post-apocalyptic reality we all currently inhabit, this is a timely and significant study."
