Apocalypse Rising: Brains After Brains
Xenia Alderidge gave her graduation speech with mascara-streaked eyes, a shattered heart, and not a single family member in the audience.
Then the zombies attacked.
Now she’s on the run—escaping the fall of Argenta, navigating chaos with nothing but a stubborn brain and a band of dysfunctional survivors who somehow think she should lead them. There’s no Wi-Fi, but there’s a katana-wielding gym ripped Rafe, a suspicious ex-soldier, and a homemade survival binder organized by color-coded tabs.
And the zombies? They’re mutating.
Some run. Some mimic. Some melt your skin. Each region has its own breed of nightmare.
Xenia doesn’t know why this is happening. She just knows what needs to be done: build a base, protect her people, and take back the world—one infected zone at a time. But survival isn’t just about strategy. Not when there are bandits who want to steal their supplies, traitors hiding among the ranks, and trauma that hits harder than any monster.
She’s not fearless. She just refuses to quit.
Brains After Brains
Because when the world ends, the girl who always overachieved does it again.
This time, she’s fighting monsters, grief, and betrayal—with a binder full of plans and a mind built for war.
