Fobos: Survival
“Rule number all you need is yourself to survive.”
In this world, it’s safest to be a nobody—and as a scavenger in the Ruined City, Bode prefers it that way. After the Event decimated nearly all life on Earth, the scattered remnants of humanity cling to each other behind the walls of Fobos, the first city of the new world. Their very existence is under constant attack from marauders, primal mutants, and even vegetation. Cabri, a fearsome Fobosian warrior augmented by biotechnology, in many ways seems like Bode’s opposite, having barely escaped with her life after an attempted coup against Fobos’s shadowy leadership.
When these unlikely allies are forced to work together, each will confront the limits of their endurance—and of what they’re willing to do to survive.

I literally made a Goodreads account just to review this book, and that should tell you something. Fobos: Survival is the perfect example of why supporting indie authors is so important: there are hidden gems out there, and this is absolutely one of them.
For a debut, it’s incredibly impressive. I picked it up today and couldn’t put it down—finished it in about 3.5 hours because I had to know what happened next. I’m already excited for whatever comes next from Wade.
The worldbuilding and character development were phenomenal. Each character felt vivid and real, their personalities so distinct that I found myself emotionally connected to them. It almost felt like I was right there experiencing everything alongside them.
Without giving away spoilers, this book is fast-paced, action-packed, and full of twists. It blends action, humor, and horror seamlessly, all wrapped in a fantasy setting that delivers on every level. Hours after finishing, I’m still thinking about it.
Don’t sleep on this book! I cannot recommend it enough. I’ll be eagerly waiting for the sequel!
