Synopsis

[Warning! This novel is entirely fictional. Do not apply it to real life!] "Your country is dead. All you’re protecting is a corpse that’s still breathing." A financial bomb shattered the United States. The government was paralyzed, the currency became worthless, and order collapsed. Manhattan became a hunting ground for thugs, cultists, and deserters. The once-proud city slowly rotted in the bitter cold. Julian Cross is a frontline agent for the National Revival Defense (NRD). He believes order can be restored and that the old government’s spark is worth protecting. Amid the ruins, he marks supplies, clears out gangs, and saves survivors, keeping this dying nation alive at gunpoint and at the cost of his own life. Then he discovers the NRD’s secret: a concrete wall sealed off in a dark corner of Midtown Manhattan. Behind it are the first agents the NRD abandoned, people who were once as loyal as he is and believed just as firmly that “order will prevail.” Outside the wall is the revenge army they built: the Dark Tide. They were once the NRD’s sharpest blades. Now they intend to drive those blades into their former masters’ throats. Julian stands in the middle of the divide. On one side is a corrupt order; on the other, a violent ideal. And the killer wearing a gray-green gas mask, who finished off his teammates with one shot each after the explosion, is waiting in the darkness for him to choose: Will he keep protecting the rotting remnants of the old world, or burn it down with his own hands and welcome a new world that may bleed just as much?

Are There Any Apocalypse Novels About Fighting Zombies With Conventional Weapons, Without Any Major Annoyances?

Purely modern weapons, or maybe with just a little sci-fi or supernatural stuff! Most zombie apocalypse novels these days have huge amounts of sci-fi and superpowers.

Looking for a Kindhearted Protagonist Who Helps the Suffering

I want something with a strong sense of purpose, preferably with no romance. The characters should be kind, thoughtful, and driven by a desire for revenge. They should dare to speak, act, and dream, and not waste time on empty gestures. Any gender is fine. It could be about love of country, another nation, the world, or liberation. Give me something good.

Looking for Good Wasteland Novels, Recent Ones Have All Been Boring

The wasteland novels people recommend are all boring. The golden fingers are way too powerful, or else the stories are about being reborn or transmigrating. Not for me. I want something about people scavenging out in the wasteland, not stories where they can't even make the main plot clear.
