Evasion, The Considerable Destruction Series

Eliana, her heart shattered by the death of her eldest son, which contributed to the loss of her marriage, is at peace with her career as a psychotherapist. The Mortiferum Virus sweeps down from the north, killing the vast majority of the population, leaving the remainder of the living as altered and infected. It shocks Eliana, although prepared for disaster, didn’t really think the world would end like this. If that isn’t enough to contend with, in this apocalyptic world, there’s another threat. A former sociopathic client, a pedophile, organizes the deranged gangs into even more dangerous foes. Getting her loved ones together, Eliana and her community must decide to hold down the fort or abandon their bounty to keep their little community safe in this dangerous new world.
The most interesting thing about Erica Hernandez’ Evasion is the strong sense of family that emerges from the destruction spread by the epidemic sweeping the country. Although the book is fast paced and never boring, characters deal with real life emotional issues, survival through strengthening infrastructure rather than the usual runnin’ and gunnin’ found in many post-apocalyptic stories. It’s a great read, a fun ride, and it’s going to be popular…don’t miss out on Evasion.
