⚠️ EMP Survival Series — When the World Ends, Survival Begins
What happens when the sky turns black, the power dies, and the future collapses in an instant?
The EMP Survival Series is a gripping four-book saga that pulls no punches. Set in the aftermath of a global electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack that cascades into nuclear conflict, this series explores how civilization collapses — and how the strongest among us fight to rise from the ashes.
At the heart of the story is Colonel Thomas Bradley, a decorated U.S. Army officer with ties to the CIA and DIA, who leads a determined band of survivors into the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository — a once-feared facility now turned into mankind’s last chance.
But survival has its price.
📚 The Series at a Glance
Book 1: Nuclear Winter (TEOTWAWKI – The End of the World as We Know It)
As nuclear firestorms rage and civilization collapses, Col. Bradley leads a select group into Yucca Mountain. Inside, they battle starvation, fear, and outside militias that threaten to tear them apart. But the greatest enemy isn’t what’s outside — it’s the decisions Bradley must make to ensure humanity survives.
Book 2: Nuclear Winter
Two years underground. No sunlight. No room for error. Under Bradley’s martial law leadership, a mining community adapts to life beneath the surface — barely. Threatened by internal unrest and constant attacks from roaming factions, the survivors learn that discipline is freedom, and hope is earned.
Book 3: Nuclear Summer
The long, dark freeze begins to lift — but the change in climate unleashes new chaos. With fractured alliances and violent weather driven by the wandering jet stream, the survivors split into two groups. Tragedy and transformation test their will, as nature itself becomes the next adversary.
Book 4: By the Sword
Six years later, the survivors rise to reclaim the surface. But a ruthless jihadist movement seeks to build a new caliphate in the ruins. With courage, sacrifice, and strategic warfare, the survivors must fight for a new civilization — or die trying. In this final chapter, the fate of humanity is decided by fire and steel.
💥 More Than Just a Post-Apocalyptic Series
The EMP Survival Series isn’t just about survival — it’s about leadership under fire, the cost of civilization, and the raw edge between mercy and necessity. It dives deep into themes of sacrifice, unity, and the moral complexity of rebuilding a world that no longer plays by the old rules.
Written with the insight of real-world military and intelligence experience, this series paints a harrowing, believable portrait of what happens when the systems we depend on fail — and the only thing left is grit, strategy, and the will to endure.
