Alex, a resourceful 17-year-old running from her incurable brain tumor; Tom, who has left the war in Afghanistan; and Ellie, an angry eight-year-old, join forces after an electromagnetic pulse sweeps through the sky and kills most of the world's population, turning some of those who remain into zombies and giving the others superhuman senses.

The Walking Dead infects a dystopian YA series like The Hunger Games in a riveting, action-filled zombie apocalypse.
The Apocalypse does not end. The Changed will grow in numbers. The Spared may not survive.
Even before the EMPs brought down the world, Alex was on the run from the demons of her past and the monster living in her head. After the world was gone, she believed Rule could be a sanctuary for her and those she'd come to love. But she quickly learns that there are no safe havens anymore. Torn apart from Tom and Ellie, she's on her own and desperate to find her friends.
In a post-apocalyptic world full of savagery, Alex is in the fight of her life against the adults, who would use her, the survivors, who don't trust her, and the Changed, who would eat her alive.
Welcome to Shadows, the second book in the haunting Ashes Trilogy: where no one is safe and humans may be the worst of the monsters.
"Also available in electronic book format (ISBN 978-1-60684-378-9)"

Jenna is sweet sixteen, the age when a girl is supposed to find her prince. Instead she finds Mr Anderson - intelligent, handsome, married Mr Anderson, who just happens to be her chemistry teacher. With a dark past and a difficult family, Jenna is just happy to have someone to protect her, to worry about her, to love her. But should she be suspicious of Mr Anderson's reputation for helping 'damaged' students? Why is the most popular girl in school suddenly jealous of her? And where is Mr Anderson's wife? This is a love story that breaks all the rules, but that won't stop it breaking your heart.

Chris - how much does he really know about the terrible darkness of Rule? And what are his true feelings for Alex? Ellie - where is she? The terrifying follow-up to the hugely popular Ashes.

A cataclysmic event. A dramatically changed world. A zombie army. Can three kids really survive... and who can they trust? Alex has run away and is hiking through the wilderness with her dead parents' ashes, about to say goodbye to the life she no longer wants to live. But then the world suddenly changes. An electromagnetic pulse sweeps through the sky zapping every electronic device and killing the vast majority of adults. For those spared, it's a question of who can be trusted and who has changed... Everyone still alive has turned - some for the better (those who acquired a superhuman sense) while others for the worse (those who acquired a taste for human flesh). Desperate to find out what happened and to avoid the zombies that are on the hunt, Alex meets up with Tom - an Army veteran who escaped one war only to find something worse at home - and Ellie, a young girl whose grandfather was killed by the electromagnetic pulse. This improvised family will have to use every ounce of courage they have just to find food, shelter, while fighting off the 'Changed' and those desperate to stay alive. A tense and involving adventure with shocks and sudden plot twists that will keep teen and adult readers gripped.

WOUNDS is the eleventh compilation of stories from the original, bestselling e-book series Star Trek: Corps of Engineers, which chronicles the assemblage of Starfleet technical personnel, a group of specalists consisting of extraordinary humans and exotic aliens that can build, program and figure out everything from alien replicators to doomsday machines. While the Dominion War has been over for a year, its legacy lives on. A mysterious murder on the Starship da Vinici leads to the Gamma Quadrant, and a pre-warp planet occupied by the Dominion still has scars from both sides of that conflict. Plus, Corsi, Soloman and Gomez are haunted by demons from their past. But the greatest threat of all comes from a visit to space station Deep Space 9, where a fissure has opened up between realities, endangering the very existence of the Bajoran system - and also stranding Doctors Lense and Bashir on a war-torn planet from which they may never escape...
