Habits are hard to break. And right now, survival feels like one long bad habit.
Nothing is the way it's supposed to be. Not the world, and certainly not me. I'm still Lori Fisher — daughter, sister, military bunker survivor — but I'm also… different now. But I am alive, and that's more than most can claim, so I should be grateful, right?
It was my dad's plan to head north. Shorter days, cooler temperatures. And when we hear about a secret military research facility in northern Canada, it solidifies it as our best (aka only) option. Sure, what's a pesky little thing like a journey across thousands of miles of scorched wasteland? Piece of cake. Let's not talk about the undying thirst coursing through my veins. And we definitely won't discuss the unlikely travel companions that I have no choice but to trust. Ugh. This is not the apocalypse I signed up for.
In this tension-filled sequel to Prey, Lori discovers that there's more to life than simply surviving, and maybe it's worth fighting for. The Walking Dead meets Doomsday Preppers in Predator, a sci-fi post-apocalyptic tale set in a future where solar flares and rising temperatures have decimated the population, leaving survivors to shield themselves from the sun. The night, however, comes with its own perils. If you like Jonathan Maberry, Nicholas Sansbury Smith, Justin Cronin, and A.G. Riddle, you'll love this gritty series from author T.K. Bradley.
