Isolation: A Post-Apocalyptic Survival Thriller

Rate this book
Rob didn’t plan to survive alone. The world didn’t give him a choice.

When everything goes wrong, Rob and Gator are cut off from the rest of the group, injured, hunted, and forced to keep moving through hostile territory. With supplies dwindling and no clear path back, survival becomes a matter of endurance rather than strength.

Every mile hurts. Every decision carries risk. Isolation strips away certainty and leaves no room for mistakes, while the dead and the living alike turn the roads into a gauntlet. The longer they’re separated, the harder it becomes to hold on to the belief that they’ll make it back at all.

Because when you’re alone in a broken world, survival isn’t about heroics or sacrifice. It’s about pain tolerance, stubbornness, and refusing to stop even when stopping would be easier.

Dead Isolation is the third brutal chapter in Devon C. Ford’s apocalyptic saga. Featuring loads of grity, realistic action and terrifying enemies that will keep you up at night, this tale of survival is sure to be the next hit in the genre.

Devon is from the UK, having lived in many places until finally settling in the Midlands. His career in public services started in his teens and has provided a wealth of experiences, both good and some very bad, which form the basis of the book ideas that cause regular insomnia.

He first started reading for fun as an adult, having tried his hardest to avoid anything resembling academia growing up, and at that point the world became a far bigger place. He has been reading, at least one book at a time, ever since.

His debut works, the After It Happened series, (Survival, Humanity, Society) were published in April 2016 followed by Hope (July 2016) and Sanctuary (December 2016). The first part of the series concluded with the release of Rebellion which was published in June 2017.

Storming high into the charts with the first books of the After It Happened series, Devon launched into the top 10 sellers listings in the UK, Australia, Canada and the US, and he made the decision to write full time shortly after the launch of Hope.

Devon’s self-published beginnings caused a stir in the publishing world, and resulted in contracts with Podium Publishing for Audible, narrated by R.C. Bray (The Martian, Expeditionary Force, Arisen), before a publishing deal for kindle and paperbacks with Vulpine Press.

Further works have seen the start of a multi-author series, sci-fi/post-apocalyptic cross genre, futuristic dystopian and alternative history zombie apocalypse. Spin-off books from the After It Happened world have been announced for 2018.
