Cassie Forrest isn't surprised to learn that the day she’s decided to get her life together is also the day the world ends. After all, she’s been on a self-imposed losing streak since her survivalist parents died: she’s stopped painting, broken off her engagement to Adrian and dated a real jerk. Rectifying her mistakes has to wait, however, because Cassie and her friends have just enough time to escape Brooklyn for her parents’ cabin before Bornavirus LX turns them into zombies, too.

Cassie Forrest could almost believe life at Kingdom Come Farm is perfect, with Adrian and her friends at her side and spring on the way. The spring thaw also means millions of defrosting zombies, however, and if the past year has taught her anything, it's that life in this new world is highly imperfect. When Safe Zones throughout the country begin to disappear and the zombies at the fences grow in number, Cassie clings to the hope that if she has the people she loves most, it will be all right.

Cassie Forrest has sworn she'll never let the world get the best of her again. She's chosen to believe everything will be all right. But on a journey filled with heartbreak and madness and zombies, Cassie and her friends must struggle to stay alive - and it's hard to believe in a future when survival seems unlikely.

Peter watched his new family drive away, certain it was the last time he'd ever see them. But sometimes plans go awry in the best way. Now, the plan is to get back to them. But sometimes plans go awry in the worst way. Sometimes the only plan is to believe it will be all right, even when it's almost impossible to believe.

Jules, Koridwen, Yannis, Stéphane ont entre 15 et 18 ans. Ils ont survécu au virus U4, qui a décimé 90 % de la population mondiale. Ils ne se connaissent pas, mais ils sont en route vers le même rendez-vous. "JE M'APPELLE JULES. Je vis à Paris. La ville que j'observe du haut de mon cinquième étage n'est plus la mienne. J'ai recueilli une petite fille, elle s'appelle Alicia, je ne sais pas quel âge elle a ni pourquoi elle a survécu. C'est pour elle que j'irai au rendez-vous. Parce qu'il nous reste peut-être une dernière chance de sauver le monde."

In the Year 2889 by Jules Verne is a diary of the observations of Fritz Napoleon Smith, the editor of an influential futuristic newspaper. It is an action-packed tale of technological advances and science fiction scenarios. Some of the predictions were remarkably accurate.

The colonel, Maxim, is the ruler of the ruins in what used to be New York. After a post-apocalyptic event, nothing is, and will never be, the same.

On December 21st, 2012, the world was supposed to end. When the apocalyptic date came and went, the world concluded the Mayan prophecy was a myth. But it was not. The Earth was saved by extraordinary intervention from planet Akara — home to an awakened civilization far more evolved than our own.

Wonderblood is Julia Whicker's fascinating literary debut audiobook, set in a barren United States, an apocalyptic wasteland where warring factions compete for control of the land in strange and dangerous carnivals. A mad cow-like disease called "Bent Head" has killed off millions. Those who remain worship the ruins of NASA's space shuttles, and Cape Canaveral is their Mecca. Medicine and science have been rejected in favor of magic, prophecy, and blood sacrifice.

Jules is just the girl next door. She works hard and likes to party. She’s young, smart, good-looking, and the future is hers for the taking....or at least it was.

She never wanted this responsibility, but everyone is looking to her. Disaster after disaster plunges them into more danger....more chaos. And now, every day is a fight for survival. Every day a new nightmare awaits them. Every day could be their last.

The electrical grid sputtered; law and government collapsed - and more than half of the world’s population was decimated. Where there had been order, there was now chaos. And as the power of science and technology receded, magick rose up in its place.
