Alpha Physics!
Sally
Sally was in a typical antagonistic council meetings when the Alpha Physics accident changed earth for ever.
The Alpha event altered everything. The incident gave Sally new skills, powers, knowledge and an increase in agility that awed her, but those gifts felt insignificant against the challenges she faced. Just seconds after the transition, Sally needs to fight a monster that used to be her friend while surrounded by the few people in the world that she actually detested, her fellow useless council members.
The fights are harrowing and between triumphing over each challenge; she witnesses the horrific reality of the Alpha event and the damage it was doing to her town. Sally must master all of her skills and smarts to navigate around her enemies and overcome a monster that seems unbeatable.

About the author
Alex Kozlowski
17 books98 followersAlex first fell in love with both computer games and writing when he was on a scholarship completing a Bachelor of Science majoring in Physics. After graduating and getting a job, I put the whole being a novelist to the side while that pesky thing called life got in the way.
A career in banking project managing the delivery of complicated quantitative applications resulted. Very stereotypical;
• Boring job as a banker - tick,
• Suburban home - tick
• Three kids - tick
• Two dogs - tick
• You get the point.
A little thing called a global pandemic then came along and gave Alex a chance to return to his dream of becoming a writer. Having recently read a variety of LITRPG books, it was a genre that he was excited to explore in order to create a world that readers could immerse themselves into. With the familiarity of the gaming world gained from playing WOW, Skyrim, Fallout amongst others, there is simple joy in creating an imaginative magic filled world that is at everyone’s fingertips. In his writing, Alex aims to capture the feeling that he loves of being able to put yourself into a gaming world, develop your character and exploit the rules to the fullest.

A glimpse
This shows someone else surviving the Alpha event, with a little bit of small town politics for flavor.
Not really a stand-alone, as it makes more sense in context with the other series. But it does not share any characters, so there are no spoilers.
I like the universe/world. I like the writing.

read in one sitting
I figured this was roughly how Sally began her post-Apocalypse career, but it’s nice seeing different origin stories during the Alpha Physics event.
I think Steven is such a great character.
Very well done, a few editing errors but nothing that hampers the story.

Great little snapshot of a key moment
Fills out the backstory of two fairly key characters in the alpha physics series by the same author. Well written, compelling and a nice extra taste of the fascinating world the author has built in this series.

Bleh. At first I was frustrated it was a "novella", but Sally was so aggravating to watch that I ended up being glad it was a short story. Read it in less than an hour, wish I could get that hour back. Why did Alex publish this???

Nice little backstory
This was a nice bit of origin story for a couple characters we met in the main series. I thought it was well built with no retcon.
