This box set collects the first four novels of Echoes of Decay, a relentless, character-driven zombie apocalypse saga set in a collapsing United Kingdom, where survival is measured not just by bullets and barricades, but by loyalty, sacrifice, and the choices that refuse to stay buried.

It was not his fight. But he will still be the one to end it. The galaxy remembers Hadrian Marlowe as a hero who burned every last alien Cielcin from the sky. The man remembers how he tried to save them - to negotiate with them, to learn more of them - and how his attempts were frustrated by his own side and creatures stranger still than any Cielcin he'd encountered thus far. Hadrian Marlowe's path might have ended in fire...but the road to it was winding and leads through intrigue, and battle, to war.

Quarantine sites disintegrated. Cities started to collapse.
