*** SIX BOOKS IN ONE! Get the COMPLETE Alien Invasion Post Apocalyptic Fiction Books here. *** One day, they drifted down from the sky and killed most of us off. Sixteen years later, we finally had our chance to fight back. Three years after that, the enemy returned with a vengeance. The aliens silently floated down from the skies in June of 2026, hovering there at a geostationary orbit above the earth for three months. Without warning on September 3rd, 2026, they attacked. Within three months, 85% of humanity had been wiped out. And we all learned the horrible truth regarding these aliens: "You just...don't...look." We called them gorgons because, like the mythical Medusa, they possessed the unique ability to paralyze us where we stood if we looked at them...and then consume us at their leisure while we felt every agonizing bite. Follow the lives of Andrew & Melissa Shipley in Blue Spring Kentucky, along with their children Cameron, Sissy, and Rutty as everyday people whose lives are upended as they are forced to flee, eking out an existence in the shadows, trying to survive in a military bunker. Travel with them from the alien invasion of 2026 through December of 2042 as gorgons take over the planet in a post-apocalyptic and dystopian Earth. Then join sons Sergeant Cameron Shipley and Private Rutty Shipley in Clarksville Tennessee in 2042, as humanity readies itself for the greatest counteroffensive that mankind has ever seen. And just when you thought it was all over, fight alongside the new President as the gorgons return with a vengeance in 2045!
