Perfect for you if...

  • You loved The Stand or Alas, Babylon and want a grittier, character-driven post-apocalypse where survival means making brutal choices
  • You're invested in long-form series where consequences compound and protagonists have to reckon with their own worst impulses
  • You appreciate antiheroes who aren't redeemed or softened, just clear-eyed about what they're willing to do

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer protagonists you can unambiguously root for without moral complexity or collateral damage weighing on them
  • You're looking for hope-filled post-apocalyptic fiction where community rebuilds and humanity shows its best self
  • You're new to the series and want to jump in here, since this is book nine and depends on nine books of character history

About this book

Resurgent is the ninth book in The Borrowed World Series. The author notes that between the previous book and this one, characters encounter Mad Mick in Mad Mick 7 - ULTRAVIOLET, with that encounter summarized in the prologue. Jim Powell has spent a year wrestling with guilt and indecision following a national disaster. Years earlier, he had wished for a catastrophic reset to purge the nation of weakness. As the disaster unfolded, he watched people around him suffer and die, and he harbored shame over whether his desires had somehow caused the suffering. He also felt direct responsibility for violent actions he had taken, including destroying a local power plant, which led the government to label him an insurgent and turned many in his community against him. To protect his family, Jim faked his death and went into self-exile, traveling the mountains with his friend Lloyd to regain clarity. Now resolved, he emerges with a new plan. He will no longer hide or keep a low profile. Instead, he intends to eliminate those who threaten his family and turn his neighbors against him, embracing what he believes is his true nature.
