Showing results for "francis" in Post-Apocalyptic

The story continues where Bloody Eventide, the first book in the Ember series, left off. Ember is still searching for Sandra, hunting the elusive Ashe, and plotting revenge and justice for her lost loved ones. She is far from the place that she once called home, but the apocalyptic world full of Fallen (dead that have risen, becoming something else) that she has known from birth is still the same, wherever she goes.

"A truth we all know...but agree not to talk about..." was how the Clapping Lady from the secretive Consilience Foundation described it to a teenage Methuen Pryce in 2012 as they discussed his Segmented World model. But it was also a "truth" that Nick O’Grady, ambitious young CEO of the high-tech Allied Answers, had not "talked about" - that was until he invited Methuen to his plush New York office in the summer of ’23.

I saw the human race fall and monsters arise in their place. Millions of these creatures attacked those humans who remained, devouring flesh with an insatiable hunger. They tore flesh from the bone, drenching their rage with blood. They had no remorse, no guilt, and served no purpose except bringing death wherever they went. I had nightmares for more than five years every night after it all began. I would wake up screaming, which, as you can imagine, is an extremely bad thing with Fallen around every corner.

A young woman begins her journey out of the Forsaken Wastes. She has a special gift that allows her to travel to other worlds (where an avid listener might meet some familiar characters, such as Ember from the Darkness Falls Trilogy). This woman may be a new hope and hero who can change this world for the better in time! Perhaps she will be destroyed by a prewar military robot, run down by a hover car, shot by the Federal Encorcement Death Squad (FEDS), or eaten by a Fallen in another world.

In an apocalyptic futurist world where the government seems corrupt, the populace lives in a dystopian society. Among them is a woman named Naomi who has the ability to travel to other worlds. She could be the one person to change everything if she realizes her true potential. She is not alone in her journey, either. She has close friends who are gifted in their own ways. There are also advanced technologies that are abound in this world, such as hover cars, cybernetic synthetic robots, and automated home monitoring systems.
