Atomic Sunrise

In this alt-history thriller set in the wake of World War II, the last remaining global superpowers race headfirst into the unparalleled devastation of nuclear war. Only one small change cascades into all-out calamity.

What would history look like if the events we know that shaped the modern world never came to pass? Dive into a strange new reality in the final hours before atomic fire blotted out the sky and eliminated all possibilities of the tomorrow that might have been.

The explosive first book in the Hydrogen Wars series, Atomic Sunrise charts a political and historical course towards a post-apocalyptic Machiavellian epic.

Through the intensely personal journeys of a diverse cast: a resolute princess, a cynical minister, a bitter foreign commander, and two lovelorn young revolutionaries, Atomic Sunrise paints an intimate portrait of their desperate struggle against the inevitable.
