***
The Seven have won the first battle against the Thirteen, but it cost them one of their number. Now Frankie, Teddy, LeHorn, Tony, Bloom, and the Exit find themselves in the middle of a global superstorm on a flooded Earth, reunited with old friends and facing off against familiar threats, including the terrifying titanic might of Behemoth and Leviathan, and the machinations of Ob, Lord of the Siqqusim. In a fight that spans from a sodden landscape to the very heart of ancient R'lyeh, only one thing is certain. Even if they win, it will be at an unimaginable cost. The storm is here... and the end continues.
Continuing Brian Keene's magnum opus, featuring characters, locations, and situations from throughout his vast literary universe in a multi-volume epic saga that will thrill both new readers and long-time fans.

The Wilburn - Thomas Award
From Scares That Care founder Joe Ripple:
In our time, we will experience the loss of our friends. It is important to remember the impact that each has had on our lives. But we must also never forget those who are still with us, who continue to strive not only for their own success - but the efforts they make to help others.
After talking with Brian Keene, I’m proud to announce that “Scares That Care!” has created “The Wilburn - Thomas Award” in memory of Jay Wilburn and Dave Thomas. This award will be presented yearly to the author that has strived to help other authors, and our community as a whole.
We are grateful to both Jenny Wilburn and Deena Dib for allowing us to use the names of Jay and Dave in our award. It is an honor to continue the memories of these fine gentlemen, and their support makes it that much more meaningful.
We look forward to presenting this award at the second annual “AuthorCon.”

The Rising: Deliverance - First Time In Audiobook
For the first time ever, THE RISING: DELIVERANCE is available in audiobook, narrated by Joe Hempel.
You can listen via Audible or Apple.
Go back to the beginning of the end of the world....
Hell has come to earth as sadistic zombies rampage and massacre the human population. Reverend Thomas Martin has lost his congregation to the chaos but has found two wayward survivors to protect—Becky and John. The three of them have holed up in Martin's church in a desperate attempt for survival. But as supplies run low and civilization crumbles around them, Martin must come to a realization—God has abandoned them. But why?
Is there any chance of hope in this new world? Is there any chance for deliverance?
Modern horror legend, Brian Keene returns to his fan-favorite universe of The Rising with a tale of faith, loss, and zombies.
