The Warlord Who Bargained with Earth's Destroyers: A Post-Apocalyptic EMP Alien-Invasion Thriller of Starvation, Living War Machines, and a Betrayal Bound for the Stars

Two years after an alien EMP attack ends civilization, Cameron Meadows rules the largest survivor clan in South Carolina. The Co-op fears her guns, depends on her ruthless decisions, and is starving under her command.

The towering creatures called Squatches have stripped Earth of food, water, wildlife, and technology. Now they are abandoning the planet. Cameron’s only hope is a hidden alien bunker—and the secret bargain she made with Agbo, one of the invaders who traded supplies for lessons about humanity.

Inside the bunker, Cameron finds Draconius, a perfectly human-looking alien warlord betrayed by his own armada. He helped destroy Earth, despises its survivors, and intends to escape the planet to reclaim his command. Cameron needs his knowledge. Drac needs her ambition. Neither plans to let the other live once the alliance has served its purpose.

Their search uncovers a replicator capable of rebuilding anything, a living combat suit that transforms its wearer into an unstoppable monster, and an alien ship hidden beneath ruined Charleston. But rival Warlord Rodrick captures Cameron, Stafford, and Drac before they can reach it.

Cameron must survive torture, destroy the Freeriders, and master the same living armor that exterminated humanity. Her victory comes at a devastating price: Drac designed every step to place the suit and the ship in his hands.

When he throws Cameron into the alien outpost, he expects her death. Instead, he carries her broken body into a medpod and takes her with him into space—toward an armada waiting for revenge.

A violent post-apocalyptic science-fiction thriller featuring alien genocide, EMP collapse, clan warfare, starvation, living technology, ruthless leadership, graphic combat, betrayal, and a cliffhanger ending.
