Absolute Tenacity

by K.J. Russell

For the past seven days, Aksel has witness the destruction of the world and pulled it back from oblivion. But she cannot stop what is coming. She has seen it before on countless worlds. With a cheerful university student and a fatalistic mother-to-be as her companions, Aksel counts the days until her celestial enemy overcomes her will and leaves the Earth in ruins. A work of romance and tragedy, K.J. Russell's three-chapter novella illuminates parts of the human heart we would rather pretend do not exist.


"Absolute Tenacity, held my interest and attention to become my all-time, best non-stop read. His scenes filled my mind with images and colors I’ve not experienced in print since Al Feldstein’s graphic artwork in Tales from the Crypt."
- E. L. Russell, author of the Evolutis Rising series


"A shattering view of the potential of love and hate, of fear and joy, and of every emotion betwixt and between not only to drive actions but to fuel them, in this tale of an epic family battle across worlds, across solar systems, and across time."
-Pamela Fagan Hutchins, author of the Katie and Annalise series

wonderful! The novella simply sucked me inside its world where I was mashed, mangled, and returned yet again to another step closer to the end of everything. Outstanding twist at the conclusion. No spoilers here, but do read it. Worth every minute of your time.

I really enjoyed the contrasts set up in this novella - calm chats in a cafe, the end of the world; average people anyone has probably met a hundred times, strange and almost alien friend. The gradual build up to a stunning ending was perfectly executed, too!
