Fantasy survival adventure in an apocalyptic near-future of magic, science fiction, and erotic romance. My name is Mark Hunter, and this is how I survived the end of the world, the coming of magic, and the aftermath of a thousand worlds smashed together... This is dedicated to those who survived that first year on the surface, where hell might have been preferable, and to the women who made surviving worthwhile.

Mark followed his group’s end-of-the-world plan to the letter. Well, almost. Unfortunately, he was the only one to reach their private little shelter. After three hundred and sixty-five days, he opened the door to find a world far different from the one that he woke up to one year prior. What would he do after emerging from his little hole in the ground? Assess, survive, and fight when necessary, but the new world threw more at him than that. With a friend in danger, giant bugs, magic, orcs, powerful curses, and a beautiful elf that shouldn’t exist, Mark must adjust to survive and help his new friends. And in turn, they will help him in unexpected ways.
