Perfect for you if...

You love high-concept apocalyptic premises where the entire world changes in seconds and characters must adapt or die
You want relentless pacing and visceral stakes without supernatural fantasy elements getting in the way
You're drawn to stories about ordinary people pushed to breaking point, like The Stand or Cell

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer slower burns or character studies over action and survival mechanics
You're looking for hope and redemptive arcs rather than grim, ongoing threats to humanity
You want a complete, wrapped-up story rather than the start of a series

About this book

At 2:44 PM, the sky cracks open. Anyone who looks up is struck blind and then driven to kill. Within minutes, offices, streets, and homes are filled with violence. Mark is caught in a meeting that turns into a massacre. Gina watches a shopping trip become carnage. Tommy finds himself trapped in a car with a creature wearing his stepdad's face. As the crack spreads and madness consumes the world, ordinary people must fight to survive or be destroyed by the blind rage infecting humanity. This is the first book in the Under the Breaking Sky series, a survival thriller that follows characters struggling against a sudden, catastrophic event that turns people violent.
