Description

Beneath the Ashen Veil of Darkness: A Post-Apocalyptic Tale of the Midwest Long roiling beneath the Yellowstone National Forest, abruptly the caldera bubbles over; as the super volcano bursts in a sudden, violent eruption that obliterates everything in its path and plunges the Earth into an age of oppressive darkness under a blanket of impenetrable ash. Millions perish, as those who survive the event are left alone to fend for themselves: no power, no running water or electricity, no government, no help. And yet despite diversity, an overwhelming sense of community draws together a group of desperate survivors, who suffer loss and tragedy as a collective family. Those living in the long shadow of the apocalypse must now battle the elements and the other dangers of the newly created sunless world - as well as with their own raw humanity. Author Robert Bartlett infuses the gripping science fiction of, Beneath the Ashen Veil of Darkness: A Post-Apocalyptic Tale of the Midwest, with vivid realism - bolstered by tireless research into real places, facts, and events - dragging the reader into the frightening world of the characters as they struggle to survive there.
