So You Survived the End of the World: 3

Bandits are deadly, but the past is a jerk…
Two things Sebastian Yun never in a million years would have put on his bucket list: Sneaking into the Bandit Queen’s stronghold and dredging up his less-than-awesome past. And yet here he is.
It’s just his luck that his rushed heist coincides with an unusual bandit competition. But when he’s caught mid-theft, inserting himself into their fierce contest may be his only chance of escaping this mess with his head still attached to his neck.
But while cut-throat raiders are scary, it’s confronting a blast from his past that he’d bend time and space to avoid. Because there’s only one person with the power to decimate him, and she’s determined to see him again…

So You Survived the End of the World: 2

When a groupie takes “fanatical” to a monstrous level…
Not everyone stans Sebastian Yun’s self-imposed mission to spread good music across the post-apocalyptic land. After an unappreciative mob chases him away from town (totally not his fault BTDubs), even his long-suffering traveling companion may have had enough of his wilin out. Especially when their narrow escape leaves them stranded in the middle of nowhere in the dead of night.
He should be thrilled by the sudden appearance of an excited admirer who clearly appreciates his genius. Too bad this diehard comes in the form of a gruesome body-snatching creature of evil who preys on mankind.
Sebastian thought that a town without 90s hip hop had him shook, but he’ll have to think fast and shoot faster or it’s deuces for any hope of seeing morning.

So You Survived the End of the World: 1

Earth may be a nightmarish landscape, but that’s no reason to stop the music.
Post-apocalyptic life ain’t all doom and gloom for Sebastian Yun. The eighteen-year-old lives for broadcasting his music to the end-of-world-weary masses from behind the wheel of his sweeeeet, double-decker ride. But when making a pit stop at a small, dusty town, the self-made radio DJ runs into a shady old nemesis who totally kills his good vibes.
This seasoned flimflam woman claims she can send the bloodthirsty creatures that prey on mankind back to hell. When Sebastian’s completely-not-selfish attempts to unmask the phony hit the wrong note, the very real danger is cranked all the way up to 11.
Will Sebastian live to share more of his dope tunes, or will it be dead air from here on out?
If you like charismatic characters, offbeat humor, and killer monsters, then you’ll love this YA twist on a post-apocalyptic future perfect for fans of Zombieland.

Silvie’s Choice

The Dragon Lord must be stopped.
A rage fueled by rejection of the gods has led to near disaster in the known universe. The dragons have invaded not only the world of the kitsunes, but also the world of the other faes, humans, and onis alike, slaughtering many in the process and proving how no one will be safe from their wrath.
However, during their last attack, Silvie, one of the last surviving kitsune warriors, becomes a captive of the dragons, remaining under their control, the aura of darkness that the dragons possess turning her into one of their own.
Her lover, Asari, and her brother, Aoki, must rally the remaining surviving creatures and convince them to join forces with the kitsunes to rescue Silvie and take down the dragons once and for all.
But will they reach her in time before Silvie turns to the dark side and fights against them rather than with them?
Or will their past rivalry with their newfound allies come back to bite them, allowing evil to reign supreme and marking the end of humanity forever?

Gearteeth

On the brink of humanity’s extinction, Nikola Tesla and a mysterious order of scientists known as the Tellurians revealed a bold plan to save a world ravaged by a disease that turned sane men into ravenous werewolves: the uninfected would abandon the Earth’s surface by rising up in floating salvation cities, iron and steel metropolises that carried tens of thousands of refugees above the savage apocalypse.
Twenty years later, only one salvation city remains aloft, while the beasts still rule the world below. Time has taken its toll on the miraculous machinery of the city, and soon the last of the survivors will plummet to their doom. But when Elijah Kelly, a brakeman aboard the largest of the city’s Thunder Trains, is infected by the werewolf virus, he discovers a secret world of lies and horrific experiments that hide the disturbing truth about the Tellurians.
When the beast in his blood surges forth, Elijah must choose between the lives of those he loves, and the city that is humanity’s last hope of survival.
