Echoes of a Dying World:


Don M Esquibel - 2017
    What he never expected was it turning into a weekend he wished he could forget. Unbeknown to Morgan, a shadow terrorist organization has been building over generations, quietly infiltrating the world’s governments and armies, all so they might one day be in a position to destroy our way of life. On a bright July morning during the summer of 2020, that fateful day arrives. When an EMP levels North America, Morgan and his friends are viciously thrown into a world without rule or order, and in which survival itself does not come without sacrifice. In their mad dash to escape a city suddenly swarmed in chaos, they are joined by two young sisters, an act of violence bringing their paths together. Once cleared of the city, shell-shocked and desperate to reunite with their families, the group embarks on the Colorado Trail—a 500-mile long hiking trail beginning in Waterton Canyon just outside of Denver, and ending in their hometown of Durango. But to make it home, they must find within themselves the strength and resolve to navigate 500 miles of hostile country, filled with hungry and desperate souls who wouldn’t hesitate to kill them for what they have. On its surface, Echoes is a tale of survival—of a group of friends who must band together against insurmountable odds. At its heart is a story of the power behind a family’s love, and how even in the darkest of times, it alone can serve as the light to guide you home.

Emerging out of the heart of Chicago, he will face dangers of all types and experience both the heights and depths of humanity. His survival depends solely on his ability to learn on the fly in this twisted new hellscape of a world. From the #1 best-selling post-apocalyptic author Mike Kraus and author E.S. Richards comes a fresh new take on the EMP/CME story.

If he wants to make it from Maine to Texas, though, he'll have to figure out how to get along with the mysterious stranger that he's picked up along the way. With skills as strange as her background, Linda's far more prepared than Frank to survive in a fallen world.
