LAST MAN: ORIGINS
The U.S. descends into total madness overnight when a rabies-like chimeric virus turns the population into feral, raging masses. Few survive the first wave, reducing the country to a hostile landscape filled with roaming predators.
Deep in the evergreen foothills east of Seattle, one former HUMINT specialist is prepared to do whatever is necessary to keep his wife and daughter safe. But infected aren’t the only enemy—unchecked illness and parasitic scavengers may prove deadlier than the virus itself.
Each dawn forces him to question whether meaning can still be forged from the broken remnants of his life…whether survival is worth the savage acts it demands.

LAST MAN: ORIGINS is based on the flash fiction series “Last Man Chronicles” that I posted on Facebook many years ago. Many of those stories can still be read here. This novel takes a different approach than the flash fiction. It is much grittier and realistic and is focused exclusively on how Last Man came to be.
