Area 51: Earth Abides - Paperback

by Bob Mayer (Author)

After the Swarm's devastating Reaping, Earth lies in ruins. But humanity's fight for survival has only just begun.

Seven billion humans were enthralled by alien parasites and absorbed into the monstrous Swarm Battle Core. The infected Core flew into the sun, purging itself-but leaving behind nightmare creatures, warships, and scattered survivors on a ravaged planet.

Mike Turcotte, the Special Forces soldier who led humanity's rebellion against the alien Airlia overlords, now faces Earth's darkest hour. Trapped in the ancient spacecraft Fynbar, he must navigate a world transformed into a hellscape of Swarm monsters: dragons, kraken, Naga, Cthulhu and horrors from humanity's deepest legends-all engineered to hunt and harvest what remains of mankind.

In the underground Facility, the Metabols-rejected outcasts from the Chosen who escaped on the mothership-hide in the darkness with Nosferatu and Nekhbet, two of the immortal Undead. They possess fragments of technology and knowledge that might give humanity one last chance. But can a handful of survivors rebuild civilization while fighting off an alien enemy that turns biology itself into a weapon?

The Swarm may have departed, but Earth abides-and so does humanity's will to survive.

The war against the Airlia is over. The Swarm's Reaping is complete. Now comes the hardest battle: reclaiming Earth from the monsters left behind.

In the Area 51 universe, extinction is just another enemy to defeat.

Perfect for fans of post-apocalyptic science fiction, military thrillers, and alien invasion sagas, Area 51: Earth Abides delivers pulse-pounding action and explores humanity's greatest strength-the refusal to surrender, even when all seems lost.

From the New York Times bestselling author who brought you over 2 million copies sold in the Green Beret series and the groundbreaking Area 51 novels that have captivated readers for decades.

The invasion was just the beginning. The survival is the story.
