A war was brewing within our borders. Not a war with weapons, but one with words. Until now. And so it begins ... From critically acclaimed author, Bobby Akart, Doomsday, a new post-apocalyptic survival thriller, is a gripping series of America on the edge of societal collapse and destined for war. In Doomsday: Apocalypse , book one of the Doomsday series, it's New Year's Eve. As the ball drops in Times Square, Americans are preparing for a new year and a bright future. Instead they find themselves fighting for their lives as the fuse has been lit that sends the country into chaos. With political rancor at an all-time high, the war of words had escalated, and a political war erupts. Americans are caught in the crosshairs of societal unrest and a shadowy group stoking the fires of discontent burning in America. Words are replaced by weapons as neighbor turns on neighbor, and powerful forces stop at nothing to reshape a nation in turmoil. America has become embroiled in something more than a clash of ideologies. She now faces a battle in which the blood of patriots and tyrants would be shed. As Americans struggle to survive, some sought a place of safety where they could ride out the coming storm. However, even if they can overcome the threats confronting them, will they bear witness to an America hell-bent on destroying itself? This is a story of a nation divided, on the cusp of a second civil war, and what that portends for our future. Remember, all empires collapse eventually, and America will be no exception. OTHER BOOKS IN THE DOOMSDAY SERIES Book One: Doomsday: Apocalypse Book Two: Doomsday: Haven Book Three: Doomsday: Anarchy Book Four: Doomsday: Minutemen Book Five: Doomsday: Civil War The term doomsday evokes images of the end of times, the day the world ends, or a time when something terrible or dangerous will happen. Sounds dramatic, but everything is relative. I've repeated this often, and I will again for those who haven't heard it. All empires collapse eventually. Their reign ends when they are either defeated by a larger and more powerful enemy, or when their financing runs out. America will be no exception. Now, couple this theory with the words often attributed to President Abraham Lincoln in an 1838 speech interpreted as follows: America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. The Doomsday series depicts an America hell-bent upon destroying itself. It is a dystopian look at what will happen if we don't find a way to deescalate the attacks upon one another. Both sides will shoulder the blame for what will happen when the war of words becomes increasingly more violent to the point where one side brings out the big guns. That's when an ideological battle will result in bloodshed of innocent Americans caught in the crossfire. Truly, for the future of our nation, doomsday would be upon us. Thank you for reading with an open mind and not through the lens of political glasses. I hope we can come together for the sake of our families and our nation. God bless America. - Bobby Akart International bestselling author, Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers, delivers up-all-night thrillers to readers in 245 countries and territories worldwide.
