I was twelve years old when the world ended. For eight years Iโ€™ve survived in this shithole once known as Earth, fighting the alien parasite that mutated most of the population into bloodthirsty freaks while the rest of us became the lunch special on their alien menu.

Now things are changing, and not for the better. The parasite is evolving, becoming smarter, stronger, and deadlier.

Theyโ€™ve already stolen everything from meโ€”my home, my family, even the man I loved. Itโ€™s time for this bullshit to end once and for all.

My name is Bixby, and Iโ€™m the resistance.

Michelle Bryan lives in Nova Scotia with her three favorite guys: her husband, her son, and her crazy fur baby. Besides her family, her other passions in life consist of chocolate, coffee, and writing. When not busy managing a chocolate store or spending the day at her computer, she can be found with her nose stuck in any sort of apocalypse book.

Marnye Young is a multi-award-winning narrator for New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors. She is a Yale MFA grad, SAG-AFTRA voice, stage, and screen actor who has spent her life in the South, Midwest, and North. Having performed in Romania, Sweden, Scotland, NYC, and more she has been reviewed for her impeccable comic timing as well as her ability to make you cry and has been called an accent guru. When she isnโ€™t narrating sheโ€™s podcasting, writing a self-deprecating comical blog about her identical twins, volunteering, raising chickens, and of course โ€œmomโ€ing. Her favorite literary character is Sherlock Holmes.

Reviews

โ€œStrain of Resistance takes a flooded genre and puts an original spin on it.โ€

โ€œBryanโ€™s writing is brilliant, eloquent, and, at times, grotesque and downright disgustingโ€”the perfect combination to create a novel about surviving the end of the world.โ€
