Earth may be a nightmarish landscape, but that's no reason to stop the music. Generations after civilization crashed and burned, life ain't all doom and gloom for eighteen-year-old Sebastian Yun. He's got his brilliant but prickly traveling companion, an epic tour bus to call home, and an endless supply of dope tunes. From behind the wheel of his sweeeeet, double-decker ride, Sebastian lives for broadcasting his music to the end-of-world-weary masses. When making a pit stop at a small, dusty town, the self-made radio DJ runs into a shady old nemesis who totally kills his good vibes. This seasoned flimflam woman claims she can send the bloodthirsty creatures that prey on mankind back to hell. But when Sebastian's completely-not-selfish attempts to unmask the phony hit the wrong note, the very real danger is cranked all the way up to 11. If you like charismatic characters, offbeat humor, and killer monsters, then you'll love this YA twist on a post-apocalyptic future perfect for fans of Zombieland.

Bandits are deadly, but the past is a jerk... Two things Sebastian Yun never in a million years would have put on his bucket list: Sneaking into the Bandit Queen's stronghold and dredging up his less-than-awesome past. And yet here he is. It's just his luck that his rushed heist coincides with an unusual bandit competition. But when he's caught mid-theft, inserting himself into their fierce contest may be his only chance of escaping this mess with his head still attached to his neck. But while cut-throat raiders are scary, it's confronting a blast from his past that he'd bend time and space to avoid. Because there's only one person with the power to decimate him, and she's determined to see him again... If you like zany adventures, unconventional storytelling, and rowdy marauders, then you'll love this YA twist on a post-apocalyptic future perfect for fans of Zombieland and Firefly.

When a groupie takes "fanatical" to a monstrous level... Not everyone stans Sebastian Yun's self-imposed mission to spread good music across the post-apocalyptic land. After an unappreciative mob chases him away from town (totally not his fault BTDubs), even his long-suffering traveling companion may have had enough of his wilin out. Especially when their narrow escape leaves them stranded in the middle of nowhere in the dead of night. He should be thrilled by the sudden appearance of an excited admirer who clearly appreciates his genius. Too bad this diehard comes in the form of a gruesome body-snatching creature of evil who preys on mankind. Sebastian thought that a town without 90s hip hop had him shook, but he'll have to think fast and shoot faster or it's deuces for any hope of seeing morning.

A hilarious new middle-grade from Justin A. Reynolds that asks: What happens when five unsupervised kids face the apocalypse under outrageously silly circumstances? Twelve-year-old Eddie Gordon Holloway has concocted his most genius plan ever to avoid chores... especially the dreaded L-A-U-N-D-R-Y. If he can wear all the clothes he owns, he'll only have to do the laundry once during his school break. On the day of the highly anticipated Beach Bash, Eddie's monstrous pile of dirty laundry is found by his mom. And Eddie's day has just taken a turn for the worst. Now he's stuck at home by himself, missing the bash, and doing his whole pile of laundry. But mid-cycle, the power goes out! With his first load of laundry wet and the rest of his stuff still filthy, he sets out to explore the seemingly empty neighborhood in his glow-in-the-dark swim trunks, flip-flops, and a beach towel. He soon meets up with other neighborhood kids: newcomer Xavier (who was mid-haircut and has half his head shaved), Eddie's former friend Sonia (who has spent her entire break trying to beat a video game and was mid-battle with the final boss), and siblings Trey and Sage (who are dealing with major sibling drama). As they group up to cover more ground and find out what happened, they realize that their families aren't coming back anytime soon. And as night falls, the crew realizes that they aren't just the only people left in the neighborhood, they might be the only people left... anywhere.

But a late-night knock on the door breaks the spell. Ruth and G. H. are an older couple—it’s their house, and they’ve arrived in a panic. They bring the news that a sudden blackout has swept the city. But in this rural area—with the TV and internet now down, and no cell phone service—it’s hard to know what to believe. Should Amanda and Clay trust this couple—and vice versa? What happened back in New York? Is the vacation home, isolated from civilization, a truly safe place for their families? And are they safe from one other?

How would you go about rebuilding a technological society from scratch? If our technological society collapsed tomorrow what would be the one book you would want to press into the hands of the postapocalyptic survivors? What crucial knowledge would they need to survive in the immediate aftermath and to rebuild civilization as quickly as possible? Human knowledge is collective, distributed across the population. It has built on itself for centuries, becoming vast and increasingly specialized. Most of us are ignorant about the fundamental principles of the civilization that supports us, happily utilizing the latest—or even the most basic—technology without having the slightest idea of why it works or how it came to be. If you had to go back to absolute basics, like some sort of postcataclysmic Robinson Crusoe, would you know how to re-create an internal combustion engine, put together a microscope, get metals out of rock, or even how to produce food for yourself? Lewis Dartnell proposes that the key to preserving civilization in an apocalyptic scenario is to provide a quickstart guide, adapted to cataclysmic circumstances. The Knowledge describes many of the modern technologies we employ, but first it explains the fundamentals upon which they are built. Every piece of technology rests on an enormous support network of other technologies, all interlinked and mutually dependent. You can’t hope to build a radio, for example, without understanding how to acquire the raw materials it requires, as well as generate the electricity needed to run it. But Dartnell doesn’t just provide specific information for starting over; he also reveals the greatest invention of them all—the phenomenal knowledge-generating machine that is the scientific method itself. The Knowledge is a brilliantly original guide to the fundamentals of science and how it built our modern world.

"If you survive your first day, I'll promote you." So promised George Wilson's World War II commanding officer in the hedgerows of Normandy -- and it was to be a promise dramatically fulfilled. From July, 1944, to the closing days of the war, from the first penetration of the Siegfried Line to the Nazis' last desperate charge in the Battle of the Bulge, Wilson fought in the thickest of the action, helping take the small towns of northern France and Belgium building by building. Of all the men and officers who started out in Company F of the 4th Infantry Division with him, Wilson was the only one who finished. In the end, he felt not like a conqueror or a victor, but an exhausted survivor, left with nothing but his life -- and his emotions. If You Survive One of the great first-person accounts of the making of a combat veteran, in the last, most violent months of World War II.
