Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The accidental release of a bio-engineered organism has plunged the 21st century into total chaos. Petroleum, plastics and most of the men are gone. Against a backdrop of competing political ecosystems, the few hundred survivors of Los Angeles must now battle feral pets and rebuild society. Can these few courageous survivors work together to save the remnants of human civilization? “Bayla Dornon has crafted a fantastic work of high drama and full-on action adventure that will tickle anyone who enjoys a slightly tongue-in-cheek look at our current and future political state. The result has a witty undertone, which speaks volumes about human nature and our desperate need for survival, and this plays out well alongside the more serious aspects of the plot. One of the major highlights for me was the dialogue, which leaped off the pages with a fresh zeal and gave the ethos and energy of each new arrival to the ensemble cast. It felt nicely balanced between cinematic dialogue and how real people speak in these chaotic situations. Overall, I highly recommend Sludge: The Lemony-Fresh Apocalypse as a fun dystopian adventure that’s well-penned, poignant, and memorable long after you set it down.” Reviewed by K.C.
