Society is rebuilding upon the ruins of the old world, hundreds of years after climactic events. To the east remains a vast lifeless wasteland, off-bounds to the world, plagued by a toxic haze... and rumours of something unnatural within it.
Tensions heighten between two of the largest settlements when the border is violated and blood is spilt. Luther, Head of Security in Carbon City, must investigate to lessen the risk of a war breaking out, while Zara, one of those involved in the conflict, finds herself lost in the wasteland. Believed to be an uninhabitable place, she quickly realises she is not alone.
Elsewhere, Shelby is kidnapped and forced to take part in a dangerous mission in the heart of the wasteland.
Displaced by events beyond their control, will Luther, Zara and Shelby find what they need before it's too late?

![Living in a Post-Apocalyptic World [authortube]
In this video I discuss some elements of a novel for when writing for post-apocalyptic books. Thinking about your common cause can help you plan and shape your world, with the aim of developing realistic fiction. Of course, this all takes time, but I believe is a necessary part of the process when writing in the post-apocalyptic genre! Again, this is only my opinion and advice, so take it all with a pinch of salt - I just hope it helps with your creavite process when making and shaping your characters, book and world.
