Call Me Adam by Jo McCarty (Crazy Pages Publishing Co) (10 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

"A consuming work of great unpredictability and power." -- Kirkus Reviews "This is not a formulaic apocalyptic novel -- in fact, it's surprisingly inventive and delightfully weird." -- Kirkus Reviews In a rural Michigan town, in a post-Covid world on the brink of a new disaster, Louie discovers an extraordinary ability -- he can't die. Fortuitous, if not for the small catch that he doesn't want to live. While everyone else is desperately fighting to survive a global biotic crisis, Louie constantly seeks death only to be resurrected time and time again. Louie is the town nothing. If life was a school yard pick, he would be the last one on the team. Immortality is a burden, a cruel twist of fate, even as he wonders why him and what he is meant to do. But everything changes when Louie meets Katherine, a smart New York City woman determined to survive in this post-apocalyptic world. Finally, Louie has a reason to live, which is good timing because with each death he becomes weaker. It would be a love story if not for all the death and dying. Katherine and Louie aren't living in utopia. There are other survivors who have their own ideas about the future. Ones they're willing to kill for. Louie and Katherine must not only defend themselves and their resources from outsiders but fight against their own darker natures before Louie's strange gift fades away. Amidst the chaos and despair, their story is one of hope, resilience, and redemption. Louie and Katherine, an unlikely modern-day Adam and Eve, will prove that even in the darkest of times, an ending can be a new beginning. CONTENT ADVISORY This book contains adult themes and explores the darker nature of the human condition. Readers will be exposed to content they may find upsetting, controversial, or offensive, including fictional portrayal of self-harm, suicide, and suicidal thinking.

Survival Instinct by Kristal Stittle (Severed Press) (333 Reviews)    Price verified 6 hours ago

On the surface, the city of Leighton is just like any other city: tall buildings, busy streets, and populated by a wide variety of people. It also has rats. These vermin are unlike the average pest, because they are carrying a deadly contagion. Havoc ensues as the devastating virus seeps into the unsuspecting populace, turning friends and family against each other. Atrocities of savage behaviour are spreading faster than people can outrun, and the citizens get recklessly desperate. Whether by joining forces, or by standing alone, survival is on everyone's mind. Unfortunately, not everyone will escape with their life.
