FIGHT THE HORDE OR DIE.
Cent and Torres have been trapped with evil before but this isn’t quite the same thing. Stuck on Harold Campbell’s island with nowhere to go and surrounded by a growing number of obayifo, they will have to find allies if they want to make it out.
But not everyone can be trusted, and even those you think you can trust have ulterior motives. As the long night drags on, and with morning—and the promise of safety—still hours away, shadowy forces make their move, further complicating Cent and Torres’s plans.
This isn’t the first time Cent and Torres have had to fight for their lives against an unrelenting creature that doesn’t just want to kill them but also take away everything they hold dear. If they’re not careful, it might be their last time.
Beyond the Gathering, the Rising Horde will emerge…
THE NIGHTMARE HAS JUST BEGUN.
They thought the worst was behind them, but they were wrong. Very wrong.
After surviving one brutal night against a creature they call the obayifo, Cent and Torres are unexpectedly reunited when both are recruited by the mysterious billionaire Harold Campbell to join his fight against the creatures that lurk in the shadows.
For Cent, it’s an easy decision: Find and kill the obayifo and rid the world of their scourge. For Torres, it’s a little more complicated. There are forces turning her against people she trusts, with her future—and those of the people she loves—in the balance.
From abandoned basements to dark sewers to secret complexes, Cent and Torres will be inducted into a world they didn’t even know existed until now. And it’s much, much more complicated and vastly more dangerous than they ever thought.
After The Last Storm has receded, it’s time for The Gathering to begin…
The storm of the century. A ghost city. Law enforcement all but suspended.
Hurricane Matthew is a force to be reckoned with. It has been forecasted to drown the city of Houston in an unrelenting torrent of rain. In the days before its arrival, the city was evacuated, leaving behind only a skeleton police force and civilians unable to flee its destructive path.
It’s the perfect time and the perfect place for the perfect crime.
Richter has it all figured out. A professional with years of experience, he leads a group of similar professionals that have seen and done it all. The plan goes down without a hitch, just as Richter envisioned. It’s everything else that goes off the rails.
Forced to seek refuge in an abandoned apartment building to wait out the storm, Richter crosses paths with a police officer and her partner. They think they’re each other’s worst enemies, but they’re wrong. Very wrong. There is a creature of endless hunger waiting in the shadows, and it’s ready to feed.
Good guys? Bad guys? None of it matters tonight.
It's been six years since a terrifying breed of seemingly unkillable creatures emerged from the darkness to topple the unprepared governments of the world, in the process knocking mankind down the food chain.
Survivors called it The Purge.
A few brave souls rose from the ashes of the old world to fight back, often against overwhelming odds. Led by indomitable heroes, they risked everything to achieve a final, stunning victory over the supernatural "ghouls" in The Battle of Houston.
Five years later, what remains of the ghouls have fled back into the shadows, and humanity now resides in isolated communities in relative peace. But human ambition and greed have also survived, and with no laws to stop those willing to pursue them, it's every man for himself.
Keo, one of the unknown heroes of The Battle of Houston, has found serenity in a small town in Texas. But he will discover that a violent past is not so easily cast aside when a madman rises to dominate those around him, and in the process shatters Keo's new life.
It's a brave new world, but monsters still exist-and thrive. And where there are evil deeds, good people must rise to stem the tide...on the Road to Babylon.
Six years ago, Gaby was the most popular girl in high school. Then the world ended. Times have changed, and everyone's unanimous choice for homecoming queen is all grown up.
These days she's part of something greater than herself: a group whose sole mission is to restore order to a ravaged world that badly needs them. Gaby will do whatever it takes to get the job done-as a soldier, a leader, or when necessary, a killer.
Dispatched into Texas to investigate a series of deadly raids on former ghoul collaborator towns, Gaby's mission is to collect intel and report back. Except nothing is ever that simple, and she finds herself face-to-face with those very same raiders.
With no help coming anytime soon, Gaby is forced on the run and must fight for her life every step of the way. For anyone else it would be too much, but most people aren't Gaby, who has been trained by the very best to fight and survive...at all costs.
In Book 2 of The Road to Babylon series, a new enemy with a secret agenda will put Gaby and her group to the test. It will take courage, sweat, and a lot of bullets to uncover the terrible truth behind the town of Fenton...and beyond.
Keo has been in tough situations before. Some have been tougher than others, but he's always managed to come out on top thanks to an innate stubbornness, the skills he's honed from a previous life, and a whole lot of Lady Luck.
But Luck can sometimes be a fickle mistress, there are always people with more skills, and stubbornness has a tendency to bite you in the ass if you're not careful.
Since leaving Gaby at Axton, Keo finds himself being stalked by a highly-trained group of humans in the day and hordes of the undead at night. Someone, something out there wants him, and it won't be denied.
In Book 3 of The Road to Babylon series, a man who has survived against all odds will find his resolve tested like never before. But if anyone can do it, it's Keo. After all, he simply refuses to lose...even if it kills him.
