Life in the North

Life in the North

by Tao Wong

A weekend camping trip becomes a brutal, game-driven apocalypse.

ABOUT THE BOOK

John wanted a vacation. He got an apocalypse.

When John sets out for a weekend camping trip in the Yukon, he never could have imagined the world would be plunged into chaos by the System–a mystical energy wave that destroys electronics and grants game-like powers to humanity. Suddenly, animals are evolving, monsters are spawning, and John finds himself equipped with a character sheet and incredible, physics-defying skills.

But surviving in this new reality won’t be easy. John will have to get back to civilization through hordes of slavering monsters. And that’s just the beginning – because with the arrival of the System, John will need to help rebuild society from the ruins up… and stop humanity from destroying itself along the way.
