World War III has left behind a never-ending
winter that most predicted would last only a decade. Fifty
years later, humanity is yet to feel the sun on their skin once
again. Those who survived the war retreated to the abandoned bunkers and mines
to start anew. Now, Loreto Riker, a 17-year-old descendant of the heroic
survivors, is tasked with finding any remaining signs of life
above ground. As he scavenges across the Earth, he finds deformed
flesh-eaters — possibly humans affected by the radioactive
nuclear mess that was left behind decades earlier. Loreto soon finds out
that there might be an even more sinister creature at loose; a new, dark
enemy amongst the remnants of war.
Return from Darkness by Peter Servidio is a science-fiction
novel featuring a post-apocalyptic setting and a courageous
protagonist and characters that are relatable and memorable. The author writes
with confidence, in prose that is captivating and he offers disturbing images
of a decadent world. Fans of post-apocalyptic novels will gulp this one down in
one afternoon, thanks to the expertly written setting, the phenomenal conflict,
and the realistic characters. The vivid descriptions of landscapes, speculative
stories, and fearless heroes are perfectly combined to transform the
narrative into a thrilling and exciting reading experience.
Fans of Salvatore, Greenwood, and Tolkien will enjoy Return
from Darkness, the first of four entries in the Earth Has Fallen series.
This novel is one of the haunting dystopian books to read; cunningly plotted,
it features a fascinating post-apocalyptic world with new doors and unexpected
danger lurking in unlikely places. It is propulsive and unnerving, and while it
is fantasy, it feels as real as today.
