Peter A. Heasley Reihenfolge der Bücher

In Within a Wakening Earth, two strangers wake after what appears to be several decades of slumber in a world they do not recognize and which they find utterly devoid of human life outside themselves. In this dystopian sci-fi sequel to Under a Darkening Moon, garrulous hair-stylist Todd and reserved biologist Mort embark on a cross-country exploration of a post-apocalyptic world in a search for humanity, and discover their new world appears instead to be inhabited by creatures of long-ago eras-like woolly rhinos and dinosaurs-as well as futuristic periods-like flying boats and humanoids. Though Todd and Mort's increasingly perilous journey eventually ends with the discovery of a world in which they can live, their exploration is far from over; their new fate is a mission into the center of the Earth-or, rather, the edge of the universe-that none have previously survived. Taking place twenty-seven years after the portentous events of its acclaimed prequel, Within a Wakening Earth unites new characters with familiar faces in an unforgettable pursuit to better understand their new world and how to continue their species' existence within it.

The moon is struck by an unseen object. Radio frequencies are filling with noise. As Earth continues on an uncertain course, former priest Jody Conque embarks on a journey across the country to his wife and daughter. His path is marked by increasingly sinister and surreal events that reveal Jody's own unique powers, and soon he finds himself at the center of an invisible war with an unknowable enemy far more dangerous than the unraveling universe. Jody must forego easy answers about the cosmos and his place within it to face the encroaching darkness and forge a path forward for the world. With a lyrical tone, UNDER A DARKENING MOON finds Michel Faber's THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS on a philosophical and spiritual road trip through Andrew Hunter Murray's THE LAST DAY. It is the first installment in a series filled with endearing, richly-conceived characters and through whose volumes Earth itself plots a course to a destination no one will have anticipated.
