On Christmas Eve, the lights go out... Reclusive ex-soldier Liam Coleman doesn't want to be anywhere near bustling downtown Chicago the day before Christmas. But his twin brother and his pregnant sister-in-law need him. Mere minutes after leaving O'Hare, their car crashes, along with hundreds of other vehicles. When Liam's phone stops working, he suspects something more sinister than a local power outage. But before he can react, the first plane falls from the sky... With society collapsing before his very eyes, Liam will have to risk more than he ever thought possible to protect the ones he loves--if it's not already too late. Chaos Rising is the 85-page prequel novella to the Edge of Collapse post-apocalyptic series, a riveting EMP thriller. Also includes an exclusive two-chapter sneak peek of Edge of Collapse , the acclaimed first book in the explosive new post-apocalyptic series by USA Today Bestselling Author, Kyla Stone.
