Life sucks. Gabe Harris has been clued into this fact for a long time now. In his mid-twenties, life has been nothing but low paying jobs, petty power-tripping bosses, and the worst roommates mankind has to offer. Bills, debt, and misery have haunted him for his entire adult life and, to make matters worse, it feels like his dream of being a writer is dead on arrival. One fateful night, he decides to take control of his life and make his dream a reality.

Two years ago, the end began. In 2036, a rapidly destabilizing climate culminated in a worldwide snowstorm that froze the entire planet. Billions are now dead due to starvation, disease, civil unrest, and the plummeting temperatures. What remains of humanity now live in small settlements or isolated makeshift villages, carving out miserable lives in this grim new reality. Some, like Chris Weston, choose to travel among the vast winter wastelands between the bastions of civilization. In the aftermath of the great collapse, Chris finds himself strangely suited for this new world.

What remains of Pine Lake is a dead end, and the best hope for Chris, the women he loves, and the denizens of the settlement now lay in a town of preppers living on an island a few hundred miles to the north. All of their faith is now being put into that settlement, and the train that Chris discovered and Fay repaired. Even with a mostly functional train and a lot of luck, it will still be a long journey. Any number of dangers, environmental, animal, and human, could lay in between them and their destination.

Mace is back, and he's not alone! After surviving the wastelands of Neo Mars, Mace begins life at Delta with Faye and Cinder. The colony—a massive USF base with fabricators, a mining operation, an AI, and much more—should be full of other survivors. But Delta is vacant. Where is everyone? What happened to the USF megacolony? The mutant germ burning through Neo Mars isn't helping, either! Well, at least he'll have the gorgeous fox girls to keep him company... and they're keen on giving him all the company he wants!

Hunter is finding allies in the unlikeliest of places. After meeting a spec ops deer assassin on a top secret mission to recover stolen tech for her people, Hunter managed to convince her to help him eliminate the tigers as a threat. Now, their shaky alliance continues. Yelena will continue helping them defend the Warren and take out the remaining threats, the relentless wolves and the enigmatic Trinkets, in exchange for any data they recover on the Trinkets along the way.

Bunny girls make everything better. So far, this has proven to be an absolute truth to Hunter. Stranded in an alternate version of Earth with most of his memories gone, the super soldier has been doing whatever it takes to protect his new mates, help whatever refugees they find in the process, and get them all to safety.

In the year 2060, Zach Johnson, the world's only freelance private investigator, tackles his strangest case yet - solving the murders of two elves at the North Pole. Santana Clausa, the micro-mini-skirt-clad bombshell and frost-haired mutant who runs the Pole, hires Zach to stop the killer or killers before they strike again, destroying the holiday for billions. If the media gets whiff of the murders at the "happiest, safest place on Earth", mass panic is sure to ensue - and that's never a good thing. 

Life beneath the ashes of the old world has never been easy. For Ethan, though, it was simple in Refuge. Living in a small settlement inside a big cave and carving out a life with his little community was all he had ever known. It wasn’t a happy life, but there was little joy in a post-apocalyptic subterranean nightmare besides with the people you fought to survive with. And then he lost it all in the blink of an eye.

It was supposed to be a medical marvel. Instead, it triggered the apocalypse. Half of humanity mutated into mindless zombies. Half the survivors mutated into the inhumans: various new species of people with new appearances and abilities. Some grew scales, some grew fur, some could fly, some could survive only underwater. Decades passed, and from the ashes of the old world, a new patchwork civilization rose. Humans and inhumans lived in tentative peace, and the zombies turned out to be not much of a threat once a few generations of survivors had come and gone.

When Mace wakes up from a brutal wreck, he's met with broken glass, twisted metal, and savage monsters. Remembering nothing except his name, he suddenly finds himself in a tense struggle for survival. But he's not alone. Surprises hide in the wastelands, like fox girls with big, fluffy tails and attuned ears. Her name is Faye Nightshade. She's resourceful, intelligent, fast, gorgeous...and she has a curious eye for Mace Frost. Soon, night begins to fall across the dusty red deserts, and things lurk in the shadows. With Faye's help, maybe they can survive together.

The Bite of Winter: She is theirs to claim. They are hers to save. Zoey finds herself caught in Ian's and Connor's web of seduction. But as Christmas draws near and her grief deepens, happiness seems far out of reach. And Ian and Connor join forces to prove their love is sacred, special...and forever. His Little Vixen: Sadie Harris doesn't like immortals. After vampires leave her an orphan, she's raised by her grandmother at the edge of a werewolf pack's territory. As a fox shifter she knows the rules about werewolves.

All his other Harem brothers have found their one true love, and they are spectacular princesses. Not Valor’s girl. Veila is the definition of evil. Not the kind of girl for whom a guy falls. Especially a stand-up guy like Valor. He’s not interested in her sexy glow, her pretty hair, or her glowing eyes. No. Valor only wants one thing for his fated princess. Death.

Though it was a long, difficult journey to get here, Ethan’s life has never been better. He helped save Wayport, more than once. He has a new home, fame and fortune, and four wonderful women to build a life with. Everything is going fantastically, so why can’t he shake this feeling of imminent dread?

After a near death experience out in the tunnels that cross the depths of a dead world, Ethan is back on his feet and ready for more. When he arrived in Wayport less than a month ago, he had nothing but the clothes on his back. Now, everything has changed. He has a place to live, coin in his pocket, and the best job security in the bastion. It comes at a cost though, as that job is about to get a lot more dangerous.

It wasn’t a happy life, but there was little joy in a post-apocalyptic subterranean nightmare besides with the people you fought to survive with. And then he lost it all in the blink of an eye.

While Chris was out finding himself and answering some crucial questions about how he wants to live his life, tragedy and bad luck was striking Pine Lake repeatedly. After a series of accidents and a run of poor luck, culminating in a freak storm, Chris has returned home to learn that the place he intended to settle down is no longer capable of sustaining life in any long-term fashion. To make matters worse, Megan led a team off on a desperate expedition to follow a modern day treasure map to what they hope to be a cache of supplies locked away in a remote prepper's bunker.

A life of salvaging tech and fighting horrors in deep space has given him nerves of steel. But now, he's up against the toughest job of his life. On a frozen, not-quite-dead planet, a desperate salvage operation has gone wrong. Max, hired to investigate, travels to the distant world, but his ship is downed by an abandoned defense system.

Decades following the collapse of society, thanks to a manmade virus that created both zombies and a half-dozen new types of inhuman species, humans and inhumans live together in a decent semblance of society. Though the undead and vicious marauders roam the landscape, the average survivor can expect to have a decent life within a settlement. But that all changed. The virus has mutated. Now, the inhumans are just as susceptible to the virus as the humans, and they're turning into lethal monsters straight out of a living nightmare.

Having been knocked unconscious at the beginning of the surprise attack, David awakens to a nightmare: two days have passed, and the Marauders own everything. All of the settlements are completely under their control, almost everyone in the whole region has been captured, and their patrols are everywhere. But it isn't all hopeless. They've prepared for this, and as David heads out into the night to learn just how bad things are, he begins running into his friends who are still free and very much active.
