Make Like The Roaches And Survive: A Post-Apocalyptic Story

M.G. Herron · Oct 12, 2017 · Leave a Comment

A brand new post-apocalyptic story I wrote back in August is now available as an ebook! You can download Make Like The Roaches And Survive on Amazon, or on iBooks, Kobo, Nook and other retailers.

This is a brand new story that fleshes out the post-apocalyptic universe I created in The End of the World Is Better with Friends, and continued with Low Desert, High Mountain, Big Lizard. Like those two stories, this one introduces a new character in a dire situation, is packed with action and sprinkled with a dose of sarcastic wit.

You’ll have to read on to learn what makes this tale unique.

Here’s the cover and a blurb.

Make Like The Roaches And Survive

Make like the roaches ebook cover

People used to say that after the apocalypse, only the roaches would survive.

Well, there were roaches all right. But that was just the beginning of my problems.

While the world was ending, I was trapped in a basement with only a feral cat to keep me company.

It took me weeks to dig my way out. And THEN it got strange…

I guess that’s what happens when you get buried alive during an alien invasion.

Make Like The Roaches And Survive is a story of scrappy survival in a post-apocalyptic Earth ravaged by mysterious alien invaders. A first contact story of a young man armed only with his wit—and the loyalty of one very fierce feline—in the face of mortal danger.
