Description

About The Doomsday Series:

Get to the Mountain Place!"

With those words, eight young people embark on a terrifying adventure to survive Doomsday.

In the post-apocalyptic wreckage of their community, without food or transportation, their only hope of safety is to walk to a mountain cabin almost two hundred miles away. But the journeying under gray, radioactive skies brings these brave teens face to face with death and danger, deprivation and disease and worst of all: the realization that life will never be the same again.

In Amy's Gift:

Amy Yamamoto was never exactly the “friendly” sort. Driven to be the best—the prettiest, the most popular and the most envied girl in school—Amy has lost everything she loved and believed in since the end of the world she once knew: her family, her friends and her connection to the people who understood her.

And now, after all of those other losses, she faces the end of the Doomsday Kids’ life at the Mountain Place as they embark on a journey of nearly a thousand miles in the hopes of reaching a surviviors’ camp on the Gulf of Mexico. Can they reach it before their supplies run out? Can they avoid the evil bands roaring through deserted towns and cities and reach safety before its too late? And most of all, can Amy learn to trust the others enough to reveal her deepest secret? Is there room in a world full of death and destruction for hope, a new life and a new love?

Advance Praise

Early praise for the Doomsday Kids:

"This book is the bomb (terrible, ironic pun intended)!"

"The characters were diverse and stretched across genders, ages, races, body types and personalities. I cared about every single one of them in their own way and I liked that they didn't all instantly get along. These kids bickered and argued like real kids. They were bonded, but not cliche besties."

"I don't usually go for YA dystopian novels, but this book grabbed me from the first scene and kept me turning pages. I had to know what happened to these kids. Great, fast-paced story!"
