What is Ravaged Skies?

The date is 12 July. A massive corona ejection from the Sun generates a solar flare that envelops the globe, burning out the world's generators and disabling most electrical appliances. Without the modern conveniences we have come to expect in our daily lives, humanity must learn to adapt if it hopes to survive in a world plunged into darkness and chaos, 

Ravaged Skies is a collaborative effort by fifteen post-apocalypse authors who will each write about the solar event from different perspectives. Each book will be published every few weeks over the course of seven months in 2025, documenting the world's most apocalyptic event since Noah's flood.

Join Maya in this apocalyptic tale of a potential future.

 

 

My Interview With Darkness Dwells

Please check out Episode 105 of the Darkness Dwells podcast. The original intent of the interview was to discuss my young adult post-apocalypse series the Hell Gate saga, written under my pen name Josh Matthews, as well as writing in general. However, Jason and Michael coaxed out of me my opinions about zombies and vampires, which I happen to know a thing or two about, as well as my future projects. Here's your chance to find out what inspired me to write my young adult novels Hell Gate and Wasteland in Red Square under a pen name, how I pick the locations for the novels, and what my plans are for future writing projects.
