As Rose, Peter and their grandchildren prepare for the oncoming wildfires, a nearby nuclear facility is malfunctioning, threatening to irridiate millions of pepole. In California, Derek and Liam work to free those trapped in JPL and seek out help for Liam's radiation sickness, and in Michigan, Desi and her friends narrowly escape the conflgration in Chicago, but are faced with larger threats in Dawn of Ruin Book 2.

Brought to you by the #1 best-selling - and most prolific - post-apocalyptic author Mike Kraus, writing with best-selling author Stacey Upton, Dawn of Ruin is a gripping tale of survival, family and good versus evil in the face of an overwhelming natural disaster.

A firestorm rages across North America, destroying everything in its path.

In its wake, a lone firefighter survives the conflagration - but his survival and journey home is anything but assured.

In a quiet suburb, a young boy finds himself to be the only survivor in a city full of the dead.

On the other side of the country, a family watches the devastation grow closer, though the flames are not the most dangerous threat they face...

***

Extreme drought conditions in the West cause wildfires to spring out of control, tearing East across the country, destroying everything in their path. Caught in the midst of this firestorm, Liam Hayward - a smokejumper - is the only survivor of his unit. Injured and on his own, Liam's journey home means crossing a burned, irradiated wasteland where death may be the easiest way out.

In the Midwest, Liam's family watches the devastation growing ever closer, but the real danger comes from those around them. Panic grips the populace as the first ashes and embers rain down from the sky, and fire becomes a secondary danger as their fellow man will stop at nothing to try and stay safe - even if it means taking the lives of innocents.

Mike's post-apocalyptic tales speak to what readers treasure most - realistic characters, the triumph of hope in the face of adversity, and storylines that are eerily in tune with what could really happen.

Since capturing audience’s attention with Final Dawn in 2012, Kraus has captivated and delighted his readers, both with his solo projects like Epoch's End, The End of All things, Surviving the Fall and No Sanctuary, and with his co-authored projects with authors like BK Boes, Kate Pickford, Justin Bell, Kenny Soward, Tara Ellis, Stephanie Mylchreest and others on titles such as It Falls Apart, Zero Hour, MELT, Flashpoint and Weathering the Storm.
