Broken Star
Author: muddlerunner
Nineteen is meant to be the year of bad decisions. For Pauline, it should have been a year of hangovers on Newland Avenue and crying over boys who don't text back. Instead, she's scraping cold tins of food in a boarded-up Sainsbury's, running from a sky that has turned the color of fire. For Cairn, the world ended at a train station. There were no sirens, just a news report that London was gone-wiped off the map in a heartbeat. Now, the veteran soldier leads a rag-tag pack through the ruins of York, clinging to the shadows of a country that no longer exists. Fight for survival is happening beneath the waves. The HMS Vanguard, a billion-pound fortress of steel and nuclear fire, is drifting in a silent ocean. With London in ashes and the chain of command severed, the crew of the Vanguard are the last ghosts of a dead nation, struggling to keep their vessel alive while the world above them burns. Three paths are about to collide in the wreckage of the North.
