Kaiju Chrysalis (Kaiju Cataclysm Book 2

severed_press_ — Sat, 16 Aug 2025 00:04:35 +0000

The world is ending. Breanne just wants to read her book in peace.

House-sitting in a sleepy coastal village while her parents serve overseas, Breanne expects quiet days and dog-eared pages. But when the monstrous Kaiju Godrisaur emerges from the Pacific Ocean, obliterating island nations and tearing a path toward Australia, peace dies screaming.

As the creature draws closer, Breanne can no longer pretend this is someone else’s apocalypse. The military mobilises. Cities fall. Her parents vanish from contact. And then the sky cracks open.

Another Kaiju stirs. Mothzen, radiant and merciless, emerges from a luminous cocoon to challenge the solar tyrant Anathema, the ancient Kaiju that holds dominion over the Earth. As titans clash, the planet teeters on the edge of ruin.

Caught in the chaos, Breanne meets a mysterious young couple. Their presence awakens feelings she doesn’t fully understand—curiosity, longing, fear. In a collapsing world, love and desire might be more dangerous than monsters.

Between nuclear strikes, crumbling cities, and godlike creatures waging war across the sky, Breanne must ask herself one question:

Can she survive the end of the world and the terrifying truth it reveals?

Control Theory: The Zombie Theories Book 5

severed_press_ — Sun, 22 Jun 2025 20:56:02 +0000

Plague. Infection. Death. Undeath. Control Theory puts our luckless hero several years into the zombie apocalypse and he’s still making the same dumb mistakes. Kidnapped because of his immunity to the worst disease in history, he is learning that being immune may not be the best thing, especially now that some of the infected are changing. But change is good right? Wrong. Better for the infected, but not for humanity.

Far from home, our hero must fight every step of the way to return to his family and friends, and he finds assistance in the most unlikely of places, from the strangest of companions.

You’ve picked up his journal, now tag along with him as he regales his trials and tribulations for you. Of course, if you’re reading this, he’s probably been eaten.

Apex Apocalypse

severed_press_ — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 02:44:18 +0000

Monsters are real.

Great White sharks lurk off popular beaches – killer crocodiles and man-eating pythons prowl the Everglades.

But for Abigail O’Neil, raised on the swamp, the most terrifying monster was her own father – a black-market croc-farmer notorious for feeding unwary victims to his jagged-toothed pets.

Growing-up privy to unspeakable horror, when Abigail finally fled home, she thought she’d left it all behind.

But now someone is stalking her – and they know all her deepest, darkest secrets.

There are always worse monsters – bigger sharks – larger crocodiles.

And there is always one more human-monster deadlier than the last.

Now Abigail must find the monster in herself.

Or she won’t survive the Apex Apocalypse.

In San Francisco, those few who remain amid the swarms measure their survival from one terrified heartbeat to the next. But for Sarah, there is reason to keep going. A pretty little girl with big green eyes and a tangled mop of curly red hair is counting on her, and she’s not about to let anything in Heaven or Hell stand in her way. But those wild, ravenous things aren’t the only monsters in this new world of the damned, and even as she fights her way home across a besieged city, she knows it’s only going to get worse.
