Resistance: After the Pulse book 2
Three years ago, a massive solar event shattered life on Earth. The EMP storms that followed wiped out every trace of modern technology, plunging humanity into chaos. Radiation, starvation, and violence claimed billions, and those who survived were left to rebuild—or simply endure.
But survival was only the beginning.
An unknown alien force has arrived, ruthless and relentless. They can’t be reasoned with. They can’t be understood. And no weapon we have seems to stop them. Entire continents are burning, and hope is fading fast.
Marty and his platoon fight on the front lines, joined by Becky, Benny, and Chuck—young warriors forged too soon by the fires of war. Al and Sophie, haunted by the horrors they’ve seen, search for any way to resist the alien invasion. Together, they’ll face impossible odds, deadly new enemies, and the unbearable question of whether humanity deserves to survive.
In a world stripped of technology and mercy, the only weapons left are courage, loyalty, and the unbreakable human will.
The battle for Earth has begun—and extinction isn’t the worst thing they have to fear.

Love it
The whole gang (Becky, Benny, Chuck, Al, & Sophie) has somehow managed to survive and we get to see both how they’ve navigated the new treacherous world and just how much they’ve grown as individuals. I love the Zombie Fallout character appearances throughout the last two books. Can’t wait to see what happens in the conclusion of the series in book 3.

A few favorites from previous stories by this author peek their heads in! The characters in this book are just fantastic and so well done. Mark is so good at writing amazing characters. I am enjoying the unfolding plot but the characters make it for me

Tuck does it again
This new universe that Mark has created is a good one. The characters are engaging, the situation is dire, and things don't look so good for our side. Eagerly awaiting the wrap cup in book 3.
