Blood Honor

They said it could never happen - that the day would never come. They were wrong. Five years post-collapse, former Texas Ranger Lucas Shaw is surviving hardscrabble in a kill-or-be-killed wasteland. When an enigmatic young woman enters his life with a desperate plea, Lucas must face impossible odds and battle an adversary who will stop at nothing to destroy them. Lightning-paced and gritty, Blood Honor, the debut novel in The Day After Never trilogy, is a non-stop adrenaline rush set in a chillingly plausible dystopian future. Fans of Jack Reacher, The Hunger Games, and Road Warrior are sure to enjoy this post-collapse epic. From The NY Times and USA Today bestselling author of the JET, Assassin, BLACK, and Fatal series, and co-author with Clive Cussler of The Eye of Heaven and The Solomon Curse. ~ ~ ~ “Best post-apocalyptic book I've read in ages. When the world ends, I hope this book survives. Can't wait for the sequel.” – Hugh Howey, bestselling author of Wool, Sand, Dust, and Beacon 23 "In Russell Blake's The Day After Never, the world has ended but the adventure has just begun. It's part survivalist fiction, part techno-thriller, part western - and much more. You won't be able to stop turning the pages...even if the world collapses around you. A must read for any fan of post-apocalyptic fiction." – Tom Abrahams, bestselling author of HOME: A Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian Adventure “Russell Blake takes the post-apocalyptic genre by storm with The Day After Never – Blood Honor, a relentlessly paced, exquisitely crafted story of survival and redemption in a hellacious landscape forged after the fall of mankind. Blake hits the right dystopian notes from the very start, catapulting the reader into an unforgiving world: part Mad Max, part Cormac McCarthy's The Road, and part Magnificent Seven.” – Steven Konkoly, bestselling author of The Perseid Collapse and The Jakarta Pandemic "Highly enjoyable dystopian thriller with a Western twist set in the feral badlands of a post-apocalyptic Texas. Russell Blake's Lucas is a hardbitten hero I enjoyed rooting for as he reluctantly rescues a woman and child mysteriously important enough to kill whole villages over. Great beginning to a series that looks to be a first-rate gallop into a dark sunset." – Toby Neal, author of the bestselling Lei Crime Series
