The Decay Omnibus: A Post-Apocalyptic Tale of Survival

The Decay Omnibus: A Post-Apocalyptic Tale of Survival was a free book for the kindle when this post was written.

A nearby nuclear attack rocks a small town in Pennsylvania, sending one man, Paul, and his step-daughter, Julie, on a perilous journey of survival. What started out as a normal Friday afternoon soon shatters into a race for survival against the odds upon the loss of communications—cell phones, Internet and electricity—as a result of the nation’s downed power grids. Paul attempts to get in contact with his wife, Samantha, who is away on business in Colorado, but soon discovers that his only option is to travel cross country amidst the chaos of strategically timed nuclear attacks along the East Coast.

During their travels, Paul and Julie discover a quaint rural community, safely tucked away and sealed off from the dangers of the outside world. The town, led by a former county sheriff, offers hope and normalcy for visitors lost in a sea of confusion. Trouble soon comes in the form of a doomsday cult, and their fanatical leader, who reside nearby, awaiting a reckoning of apocalyptic proportions. Meanwhile, in a protective bunker underground, Paul's wife, Samantha, finds herself under the watchful eye of the influential and powerful Senator Bryant and a group of elites who may or may not have engineered the nuclear attacks as part of massive worldwide conspiracy meant to change the world forever.

Events are further tied together in New York City as Sacha, a Polish immigrant taken into custody as a terror suspect, begins a journey that leads him to a group of escaped prisoners who could very well be involved in the terror attacks plaguing the country. After being accepted into their group, he hopes to prevent their goals of mass destruction. Full of action and suspense at every corner, “The Decay” will keep you on the edge of your seat where noting is safe and humanity has reached its breaking point. Don't miss this three-episode omnibus collection of the hit dystopian science fiction thriller destined to bring you into a strange new world of apocalyptic visions.
