A captivating collection of dystopian, survival short stories that take you on a wild adventure to the depths of the earth. I mean, what would you do if everything you’ve ever wanted suddenly went up in flames?
“I opened my eyes slowly and began observing my surroundings. I felt dazed and confused. The last thing I remember, I was getting my first fishing lesson with Oscar and soon after a storm hit. Beyond that I don’t remember anything else. It was like a blank memory. I started to smell bleach from the corridor and then heard the sound of a heart monitor. Mine. I soon realised I was in hospital, in the ICU department. I am not sure how I got here or who found me. Was it Oscar? Did we survive the storm?
“As I began to torment myself with all these questions, a blurry image transcended through my mind… I remember now, Oscar hit his head against the rock, and swiftly fell facing down on the rear end of the boat, losing consciousness. Oh my God, no!!! Is he ok? Is he alive?”
Fear and trepidation looms in the dark as each character embarks on a perilous journey in search of hope and a way out of their suffering.
