Dead Invasion (Deadwater Series Book 11) by Anthony Giangregorio Pdf

The walking dead are no more, but their decaying footprint remains. The world is still in chaos, and people still fight to survive day to day. Cannibals, slavery and other atrocities still continue. It's as if the walking dead were still around. Still dealing with the loss of one of their own, Henry Watson and his fellow companions make their way through this apocalyptic landscape, still hoping to find someplace to call home, where they can put down roots. Traveling to Alaska, wanting to get the stink of the rotting dead from their noses, the companions soon learn that the former USSR is raising its mighty head once more. The Soviet Union, stuck in the past, sees the fall of the walking dead as a chance to invade the United States, to finally bring back Mother Russia to its former glory. And there is only one way to do that: crush America under its heel. A ragged army of Russian soldiers is using the Bering Strait to cross into America, their intent to use Alaska as a staging ground for the invasion. Though the living dead are gone, the world is still a very dangerous place, and the struggle to survive continues.

Dead Army by Anthony Giangregorio Pdf

Years have passed since the dead first began to walk, and the world is a very different place. Gone are the luxuries man once enjoyed, to be replaced with a want for basic necessities, such as food, clothing, shelter, and of course, safety from the walking dead. At a time when the survivors of the land believe the undead scourge is almost over, as the dead begin to fade away, a new threat rises from out of the Nevada desert. A lone zombie has appeared with the power to control the undead, and this thinking, reasoning ghoul has a hate for mankind that has rarely been seen before. Gathering the living dead to him, this zombie king begins to sweep across the state, absorbing every town and enclave he comes across, killing the inhabitants and turning them into zombies so they can join his dead army. Henry Watson and his warrior survivalists discover the threat of the zombie king before they reach the next town in their travels, where the group tries desperately to convince the town leaders of their dire fate. But when the dead army arrives and surrounds the town, causing an unending siege that will result in the death of every living human being within its walls, it will be up to Henry to risk all for his friends and the human race. If he fails, there will be no stopping the dead army before it wipes humanity from the planet, leaving nothing but the dead to inherit the earth. In a world filled with the living dead, you can either fight or die.

The Outstretched Shadow by Mercedes Lackey,James Mallory Pdf

The Outstretched Shadow, the first book in The Obsidian Trilogy from Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory Kellen Tavadon, son of the Arch-Mage Lycaelon, thought he knew the way the world worked. His father, leading the wise and benevolent Council of Mages, protected and guided the citizens of the Golden City of the Bells. Young Mages in training--all men, for women were unfit to practice magic--memorized the intricate details of High Magic and aspired to seats on the council. Then he found the forbidden Books of Wild Magic--or did they find him? The three slim volumes woke Kellen to the wide world outside the City's isolating walls. Their Magic was not dead, strangled by rules and regulations. It felt like a living thing, guided by the hearts and minds of those who practiced it and benefited from it. Questioning everything he has known, Kellen discovers too many of the City's dark secrets. Banished, with the Outlaw Hunt on his heels, Kellen invokes Wild Magic--and finds himself running for his life with a unicorn at his side. Kellen's life changes almost faster than he can understand or accept. Rescued by a unicorn, healed by a female Wild Mage who knows more about Kellen than anyone outside the City should, meeting Elven royalty and Elven warriors, and plunged into a world where the magical beings he has learned about as abstract concepts are flesh and blood creatures-Kellen both revels in and fears his new freedom. Especially once he learns about Demons. He'd always thought they were another abstract concept-a stand-in for ultimate evil. But if centaurs and dryads are real, then Demons surely are as well. And the one thing all the Mages of the City agreed on was that practicing Wild Magic corrupted a Mage. Turned him into a Demon. Would that be Kellen's fate? Deep in Obsidian Mountain, the Demons are waiting. Since their defeat in the last great War, they've been biding their time, sowing the seeds of distrust and discontent between their human and Elven enemies. Very soon now, when the Demons rise to make war, there will be no alliance between High and Wild Magic to stand against them. And all the world will belong to the Endarkened.

The Girl in the Road by Monica Byrne Pdf

A debut that Neil Gaiman calls “Glorious. . . . So sharp, so focused and so human.” The Girl in the Road describes a future that is culturally lush and emotionally wrenching. Monica Byrne bursts on to the literary scene with an extraordinary vision of the future. In a world where global power has shifted east and revolution is brewing, two women embark on vastly different journeys—each harrowing and urgent and wholly unexpected. When Meena finds snakebites on her chest, her worst fears are realized: someone is after her and she must flee India. As she plots her exit, she learns of the Trail, an energy-harvesting bridge spanning the Arabian Sea that has become a refuge for itinerant vagabonds and loners on the run. This is her salvation. Slipping out in the cover of night, with a knapsack full of supplies including a pozit GPS, a scroll reader, and a sealable waterproof pod, she sets off for Ethiopia, the place of her birth. Meanwhile, Mariama, a young girl in Africa, is forced to flee her home. She joins up with a caravan of misfits heading across the Sahara. She is taken in by Yemaya, a beautiful and enigmatic woman who becomes her protector and confidante. They are trying to reach Addis Abba, Ethiopia, a metropolis swirling with radical politics and rich culture. But Mariama will find a city far different than she ever expected—romantic, turbulent, and dangerous. As one heads east and the other west, Meena and Mariama’s fates are linked in ways that are mysterious and shocking to the core. Written with stunning clarity, deep emotion, and a futuristic flair, The Girl in the Road is an artistic feat of the first order: vividly imagined, artfully told, and profoundly moving.
