About the author

Drew Avera

95 books167 followers
Drew Avera is a Navy veteran, musician, and the bestselling author of the Dead Planet series and the Alorian Wars.

He was born and raised in rural Mississippi and grew up with a deep affection for comic books and science fiction movies and television shows. At one point he boasted a comic book collection with more than 1,000 issues. His love for comics inspired him to pursue a career as a comic book artist, but an injury to his hand ended that dream permanently.

Still, he was inspired to create in one medium or the other. He picked up a guitar at fifteen years old and began writing songs almost immediately. That “obsession” as his parents called it put him on the path to rock stardom…in his bedroom.

It was when he turned sixteen and bought the novel “What Savage Beast” by Peter David (The Incredible Hulk) that he caught the bug to be a writer. Unfortunately, it would not come to fruition until fourteen years later.

Drew enlisted in the US Navy as an Aviation Electricians Mate at seventeen years old. He served twenty years and deployed on four combat deployments to the Persian Gulf. During those deployments he would spend his free time reading books. He loved reading books in a series and that inspired his journey to becoming a fiction author.

In November 2012, at the age of thirty, Drew began his journey as an author by participating in national Novel Writing Month (NANoWriMo). He published his first book in March of 2013 and the rest, as they say, is history. With more than twenty books published in the space opera, military science fiction, cyberpunk, and dystopian genres, he has built a backlog with something for everyone who enjoys science fiction adventures.

After retiring from the Navy, he began an exciting new career in the simulation field. Drew is now focusing his efforts on building upon what he learned in his first eight years of publishing. He has plans for an all-new space opera and military science fiction series as well as new collaborations with other writers.

The best is yet to come!

Every Storm will Pass

Again, Book Three of the Dead Planet Series begins where Exodus leaves off. (No I haven’t made a mistake.) They arrive back on Mars just as Pontiff White has collapsed. While the Pontiff is rushed to the hospital, Kara contacts all the universities and gives them the plans needed to the fix the artificial atmosphere and save Mars. Two characters whom we meet at this time have key parts to play in this story. They are Captain Gentry, the Agent who killed Serus’ father and his fiancé Nila, personal secretary to the Pontiff. Just as Pontiff White is declared out of danger, they receive a communication from Earth stating if Serus wants to save Harris’ life he must return to Earth and surrender to the Syndicate. Join Serus, Kara, Laurel, Gentry, Nila and Pontiff White as they return to Earth and try to save Harris.

Drew Avera keeps us reeling from the abrupt twists and turns within the plot of this final book. Will they save Harris? Will Serus escape from the Syndicate’s grasp? Will the three couples get their happy endings? Read this final book in the Dead Planet Series to find out.

The conclusion seems to be a roller coaster of situations with highs and lows that work in mysterious ways to arrive at the ending.

The whole series is quite good from a narrations standpoint, but it's missing several follow ups that would make it more interesting.

The story is good and the characters end up being more defined than in previous books, and it's still entertaining.

It could be better, but as it is manages to tell the story it wanted to tell. sadly it does not tell the story we were hoping to.

Endgame (Dead Planet #3), my eleventh read from author Drew Avera. Enjoyable Dystopian science fiction adventure read. I was given a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. The story was well-written & flowed smoothly & quickly, although short. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).
