It was supposed to be a medical marvel. Instead, it triggered the apocalypse. Half of humanity mutated into mindless zombies. Half the survivors mutated into the inhumans: various new species of people with new appearances and abilities. Some grew scales, some grew fur, some could fly, some could survive only underwater. Decades passed, and from the ashes of the old world, a new patchwork civilization rose. Humans and inhumans lived in tentative peace, and the zombies turned out to be not much of a threat once a few generations of survivors had come and gone.

Two years ago, the end began. In 2036, a rapidly destabilizing climate culminated in a worldwide snowstorm that froze the entire planet. Billions are now dead due to starvation, disease, civil unrest, and the plummeting temperatures. What remains of humanity now live in small settlements or isolated makeshift villages, carving out miserable lives in this grim new reality. Some, like Chris Weston, choose to travel among the vast winter wastelands between the bastions of civilization. In the aftermath of the great collapse, Chris finds himself strangely suited for this new world.

Lucas Mead-Slayer has seen it all. Or at least that's what he thought after over a decade of wandering the wilderness of his homeland and embracing everything it had to throw at him.

After suffering the worst crash of his entire life and escaping death a dozen times over, Max Slater is finally making some headway on this whole staying alive thing. He’s found a place to live, resources to survive, power to keep from freezing, and a pair of fantastically beautiful women to help him stay alive. And keep warm during the brutally cold nights. But so far, they’ve just been scraping by. They need more: real guns, lots of bullets, a ship, and a real plan to escape this dead, frozen wasteland

Lucas Mead-Slayer is closing in on his vision of a perfect life. After reuniting with his lost love Ellasandra and helping her reunite her scattered tribe of goblins by becoming chieftain, after tracking down a potion to assist him in very personally helping with repopulation efforts, after marrying several beautiful goblin girls, after tracking down the Heart of Peace...he's so close. All that's left is to enact that peace.

Life beneath the ashes of the old world has never been easy. For Ethan, though, it was simple in Refuge. Living in a small settlement inside a big cave and carving out a life with his little community was all he had ever known. It wasn’t a happy life, but there was little joy in a post-apocalyptic subterranean nightmare besides with the people you fought to survive with. And then he lost it all in the blink of an eye.

Awakening on an unknown island with nothing but his name, Jak quickly proved himself a warrior as he tore through the most immediate threats around. Giant wasps, corrupted wolves, violent cavemen...all fell before him. Now comes something even more challenging. With his elf love Niri and magic healer Rylee at his side, Jak must begin the process of forming his own tribe. The cave that he took is a good start, but he'll need more things: wood, rock, plants, and, most significantly of all, other exiles to help build his tribe up against the other threats this island has in store for him.

Decades following the collapse of society, thanks to a manmade virus that created both zombies and a half-dozen new types of inhuman species, humans and inhumans live together in a decent semblance of society. Though the undead and vicious marauders roam the landscape, the average survivor can expect to have a decent life within a settlement. But that all changed. The virus has mutated. Now, the inhumans are just as susceptible to the virus as the humans, and they're turning into lethal monsters straight out of a living nightmare.
