Product Review

There were no air raid sirens. No missiles or bombs. No mushroom clouds. No panic in the streets. The end, when it came, was like nothing we ever expected.

First hit was a small Gulf Coast city. Seventy thousand dead, just like that. Then Rome. Flags toppled and nations crumbled, as people began dying by the millions. Soon there would be no one left alive, except for the lucky few who were genetically immune.

One man—pilot Nick Tesla—knew what was happening. He had survived and escaped the first Zone of Death. The army has sent him back in, determined to stop the destruction of humanity.

Until Tesla sees reality—a mad scientist, the father of the unknown type of radiation, who perhaps isn’t so mad at all. When the tables are turned, Tesla decides to push the button and send the world back to the beginning…so civilization can have a fresh start and avoid all the mistakes of the past.

With a new introduction by Jeff Shaara, the author's son, and a New York Times bestselling novelist in his own right.
