Empty Cradle: The Return of Holly Aniram

by Emmy Jackson

Third book in the Empty Cradle post-apocalyptic series. Cover Hey. Get in here. Emmy finally wrote the third installment in his post-apocalyptic series, and it's a really long story about figuring out who you are and finding and protecting your family and being an idiot along the way. The world of Empty Cradle gets a lot bigger as the story heads out onto the ocean and beyond, and there are dinner parties and shapeshifters and academic conventions and car chases and pirate attacks and a dude gets ripped in half by a truck but don't worry, he totally deserved it. Oh, and there's a magical snowstorm in a city, and a bear fighting riot cops in an elevator, and post-apocalyptic Mercedes racing across the desert...it's hard to believe what one little piece of history revealed will set in motion.
